Used to brew my own many years ago, and with the kids getting older we got the equipment out, replaced what was broken/useless and made a couple of brews last month.
And it looks like everybody in the family is interested in doing more homebrewing or winemaking.
It's great to find an irish forum too!

Welcome coolfinie. I'd recommend going to one of the monthly meets run by the Dublin clubs - great craic and lots of brewing chat.
