A home-brewing how-to guide using shop-bought, home-grown and foraged ingredients

The Two Thirsty Gardeners are leading a home-brewing revolution. Determined to put the fizz back into home-brewing, Richard Hood and Nick Moyle prove that creating your own tasty alcoholic drinks doesn't need to be complicated and doesn't need to be costly. From Pear & Ginger Cider and Viking Ale to Raspberry & Thyme Whisky and Limoncello, the 70 recipes in Brew It Yourself will take home brewing to new heights. The craft drinks market is undergoing a huge resurgence, and while other cookbooks might play it safe, the Two Thirsty Gardeners have other ideas. Taking their two great loves - alcohol and gardening - they provide recipe inspiration for people to turn a surplus harvest, a visit to a fruit farm or a delivery from the supermarket into a fantastic variety of drinks. Covering wines, beers and ciders, as well as more fancy infused liquors, sparkling drinks and some true curios, the book outlines the basic approaches to each drink's method of production, debunking myths, celebrating experimentation and taking the fear out of fermentation. There really is no reason not to brew it yourself.

About the Author

Nick Moyle and Richard Hood both grew up during the UK home-brew boom of the 1970s and 80s, with parents who regularly made their own drinks from home-grown produce, enlisting their help. This fired up a life-long obsession for the art of brewing and in 2008 they built their own cider press and have been producing cider for local pubs, beer festivals and deserving friends ever since. They started their Two Thirsty Gardeners website in 2012, which inspires thousands of loyal followers.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very Organized and Thorough
Reviewed in the United States on January 25, 2016
I received a free copy of this book through Goodreads First Reads in exchange for a fair review.
This hard cover book is not only well-written, but it also has a very appealing and colorful cover design. The content of the book is well organized, and the writing style is precise and to the point. The chapters are as follow:

1-Brew it yourself (Explaining the basic for making your own drink)

2-Wine and Mead (Rhubarb, elderberry, second-run elderberry & plum, elderflower, crab apple, fragrant fig, pineapple, grapefruit, lemon & lime, parsnip, mint, oak leaf wines, and easy mead, rhodomel, and winter mead.

3-Hard Cider (Farm house cider, pear & ginger hard cider, cyser, slider, bramble hard cider, scrumpleflower, rosehip hard cider, hopped hard cider, Rich’s hot toddy, and lambswool)

4-Beer, Ale and Lager (Basic beer, London porter, India pale ale, wheat beer, lager, honey ale, Nick’s liquorice stout, raspberry ale, Viking ale, pumpkin ale, English brown ale, and ginger ale.)

5-Sparkling Drinks ( Sima, Finnish spring mead, tepache, canned fruit fizz, fizzy iced tea, elderflower sparkle, lavender sparkle, boozy dandelion soda, chili ginger beer, and nettle beer.

6-Liqueurs (Slice gin, second-run sloe whiskey, raspberry & thyme whiskey, damson & fennel vodka, wild brandy, crème de cassis & Kir Royale, rhubarb & vanilla liqueur, Julia’s orange whiskey, limencello, rucolino, mint, lime & lemongrass liqueur, beech leaf & honey liqueur, mayflower brandy, Irish cream liqueur, and coconut liqueur.)

7-Classic Coctails & Curios (summer cup, cherry fortified wine, Rich’s sangria-ahhhhhh, bloody Mary, rumtopf, orange bitters, spruce bitters, spruce martini, vermouth, chili tequila & mango margarita, absinthe, horseradish vodka, spice rum, marrow run, Ilze’s beet kvass, egg-nog and glogg.

Like I said before I loved the way this book was designed inside and out. Mostly, two pages are devoted per drink, one page for the ingredients and instructions about how to make it, and the next page for the pictures relevant to this specific drink. I also liked the step by step instructions, stated clearly for novices like me who knows nothing about this subject. I think this book and the home made drinks mentioned in this book would make great gifts during the holidays.

5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant Brewing Book!
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on September 13, 2015

I already have a few brewing books but they all focus on certain aspects of brewing and miss out some key information. Not this book. It provides an excellent guide to many aspects of home brewing with the added bonus of some top tips. Everything has been given careful consideration and the layout is user friendly. So if you just want to learn about wine making, beer brewing or you have bigger plans such as damson and fennel vodka, wheat beers or oak leaf wine then look no further.

Its my 'go-to' brewing book!

Fantastic book, easy to follow recipes for some really enjoyable drinks. With just simple equipment I'm making home brews of far better quality than in any kits I or my friends have used. This is my first and only brewing book so I cannot say if it is lacking in any areas. Perfect for a beginner though.

4.0 out of 5 stars Stop at Wine, Beer, Cider
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on October 13, 2020
Verified Purchase
The wine, beer and cider sections were really good and inspirational - especially the small batch beer production - just make one demi-john of beer, instead of all of those pints ..... that is the way to start, in a very small scale, so thanks for that. One star taken off for the `other concoctions' - didn't think they were necessary and would like to see them replaced with more wine recipes in a later edition. Who am I to say? The new editor? Yes, I'll do that job.

Overall the book is beautifully illustrated with wonderful photos and full of useful, amusing and inspirational ideas for home brewing and wine making. Would make a fab present or a useful lockdown essential.
