hi any home brewers here in Trinidad

[SMc]

Agree with this, but I stick with the Stag it just takes a few days to get used to it, to be honest its no different when I go to any other country I tend to drink the local stuff where possible and that usually takes a day or 2 to get used to.

True but I've noticed especially within the last few years that sometimes the stag taste differs alot depending on the batch maybe... like sometimes even a carib would taste better than a stag (this is very rare though)
I must end in saying ; there is not much things in this world better than a beastly cold stag with a hot bake and shark
*wipes drooll*

Fork that..had a proper Bunny Chow on Sunday with a very cold Red Stripe to wash it down while stood in a field in middle England...that was good.

I have tasted many beers, from all over the world. Nothing will be better than a beastly cold Stag. Carib is second to it. The rich flavor, with a bitter bite. A beer made for a warrior, warlord and king. I believe Stag, in my view, is the best beer. Anything else is for cats.

said the man who only drink pale lagers....
In the US they say pale lagers are for women..

ENT! one of the best (US) beers I've tasted was Amber Bock

here is the law for brewing the licence is under section 3

Trinidad and Tobago[edit]
In Trinidad and Tobago, an illegally distilled rum is produced, known as ba-bash, bush rum or mountain dew. It is primarily made from fermented sugar cane. The "stills" used are very similar to those used in North America. Although ba-bash is illegal in Trinidad and Tobago it is readily available if contacts are right.

think most people down south going the route of south american rums than starting back their stills well till hunting season close

If you want your beer tasting good then at least get a DME (dehydrated malt extract kit)

and get a good boil kettle

i made some wine a while a back , got a pig tail bucket , warm water , sugar and some rice with the paddy " husks " also i used a pineapple with out the skin mixed all using the warm water and made a mixture also i used a " carboy" which is a large vessel and i bought an air lock fliter by a place called kitsons in pos and in abrihams i cgot some yeast called ar 12 which gives the wine a sparkling effect almost like a champane , it was worth it because when i got the 13 bottles from it i used to show off when ppl come home by me and i say " i make this " i used to feel good knowing i made this wine from simple things , however never tried it again the idea never really materialise to do it again , also if you use white sugar you does have to used " camdeen tabs " in the or aftr the 28 days so the wine will have to clear up , just taught i would tell you this ,

Where did you get your "carboy"? I'd like to buy one.

Got this same kit for my bday. Only problem with it is the yeast. Ambient local temperature is too hot and putting it in the fridge is too cold. Other than that, it's a great starter kit.

[pyromaniax]

ouu good info here, I have a basic kit sit down for a good while home. I think i gonna take some of yall recommendations and get some good stuff and take a try at brewing.

Carib and stag is sheit compared to other beers out there.
But for the Retail Price $US 1.5, it is the best cheapest beer you can get.
There are many beers/ale that is far better than carib/stag but you will end up paying double/triple the price.
Paid up to US$10 and Euro $15 for retail beers like Bourbon, Kuntsmann, Marshall, Montero etc.
Normally I pay $120tt for a six pack of Hobgoblin Beer and the same for a six pack of Honey Dew in right here in Price mart. Compare that to a regular six pack of carib/stag.
Higher the quality-higher the price.
Nevertheless I like mih Stag. It think it is also the cheapest in the Caribbean as well, compared to Red Stripe, Wadadli or Piton
