I brewed a batch of apfelwein after posting about brewing beer. Its super easy and super cheap to make. All you need is 6 gallons of apple juice (costco = $24), some dextrose from the homebrew shop ($2), and a packet of montrachet wine yeast ($2). Let it sit for 30 days days at under 80' and bottle!
I tried the apfelwein a little early the other day (after bottling & priming for carbonation) and it doesnt have much taste but has a huge kick! At 8% ABV it'll knock your socks off before you can say "this only cost $0.35a bottle to make?"
I've already started the next batch recycling the yeast, but this time with 12oz of pureed fresh raspberries.
