Default Brewing beer aboard

Glenn -

Do you recall or have a copy of the articles regarding the brewing of beer
on boats?
I do hope you receive constructive answers and hopefully someone who has
been brewing will answer your post. For years I hated to pay big bucks for
beer in most of the islands. I hated carrying a case or two back to the
boat. We went to rum because of the costs and avilablity. But we ended up
paying a lot for cokes and we were still carrying the cases back to the
boat.

From my experience, I had thought about brewing beer on my next boat. I
have also thought about putting in a mini soda fountain to dispense coke,
tonic...

Lastly, the best beer I had found in the West Indies was in the DR. We
would load up on beer and rum and ration our beer for special occasions.

I've read several articles where cruisers were brewing their own beer

aboard
their boats. I brew my own when ashore, but have had to resort to
store-bought beer when living aboard for the winter.

Have any of you any experience brewing your own afloat?
