[GAUGING INTEREST] Homebrewed craft beer

[dave00]

Hello fellas  
as from the title, i started homebrewing a while ago and i'm here to check if there is some interest on beer here in the forum
Please note, this is mainly for EU users, i don't know if i can ship alcohol to USA or other places but i might check if asked  
I plan to offer standard 0.5 Liter or 33cl bottles of unfiltered and bottle fermented beer, tracked shipping with 3-5 day delivery for added peace of mind  
Different styles will be available in the coming future

Talking about the beer itself i'm not the king of all homebrewers but i brew a good beer enjoyed by relatives/parents/friends  

Curious to hear your opinions

Hello there, nice to hear that someone can actually brewed beer and want to share it.

I am not such a beer fan but i would like to try what you made off.
Can you share with us some pics, what incridients you use or some details about it? Ofc the price it's a factor too, that we should know...

As long the bottles, i think that 0.33lt is the most common and "easy going" bottle/can.
Waiting for an update, thanks in advance Op.

Thanks for the kind answer 
I'll provide pics in the upcoming days since it is in the last days of bottle fermentation, expect them around the 30th of april, i'd like to provide a good quality photo 
regarding the ingredients it's quite simple water, yeast, hops and malt (can be made gluten free if required), this batch is a "Lager" type
regarding the bottles right now i've used 0.5 bottles since drinking less than a medium beer is an insult to beer itself 
But i'm already considering to bottle the next batch in 0.33 bottles.

Regarding the price in my city 0.33 bottles of craft beer goes for around 5 euros, so i'm thinking to provide it at 4.5 euros per 0.5 liter per bottle of lager beer, sounds fair to me.
Thoughts, opinions etc are always appreciated

Very good idea, a friend of mine brews craft beer at home too, not for sale but for personal usage 

He is in kinda a club for beerbrewers and they brew special beers too.
I once bought a "4pack" of four different flavoured beers as a present (4x0,33l) and those were 12€, so thats a price I found fair

One thing you should mention as a downside of home brewed beer is that it will expire much faster (please correct me if I am wrong).

Regards and best of luck!

I don't sell them too usually 
but as a bitcoin lover i thought, let's give it a try, i'll provide all infos once posted the pic of the beer, but yes non pasteurized beer lasts a year more or less.
In my home wayyyyy less than that

The price is not bad for a home made beer, i don't know though about shipping methods and costs. I guess it wont be cheap...
Maybe if you send them as a bulk but how many you will sell? If the price remains in these levels, i can pre-order a case!

I can't wait to see the pics of your product!

Well, for a package of 6 bottles sent via courier it should be around 15 euros more or less, delivered through UPS standard

Little update: still labeling the bottles, beer has been tested after 15 days since bottled, carbonated but still missing flavour, need some more time
Sorry for the wait but i prefer to offer a good product instead of a bad one which still needs some rest

So 30€ (little more, little lees don't hurt that much) for two packs, you can count me in from now.
You do the right thing and wait, that's the proper way.
Besides the good things, need their time to be good...

Thanks for your trust, anyway i would like to communicate that shipping prices can vary in different countries, so i'll try to get a nice tiny box to lower them as much as possible
