Many a beer-lover has dreamed of owning his very own micro-brewery (or at least marrying the daughter of a Beer tycoon!). Now that fantasy can become a reality this Christmas thanks to the groundbreaking ibrew system, which we recently had the opportunity to try out for ourselves.

ibrew is a complete, self-contained in-home micro-brewery offering anyone, novice or expert, the opportunity to brew premium lager, bitter or stout inside just 21 days (so plenty of time to make Christmas). Compact and easy-to-use, the ibrew micro-brewery kit contains everything needed to produce top-notch, 4% ABV beer of a quality comparable to the finest artisan products on the market – and at a fraction of the price. In fact, ibrew costs from just 50p a pint – offering superb value for money compared with both supermarket and pub prices.

ibrew makes 20 pints of beer at a time at room temperature, which means it can be tucked discreetly away in a cupboard during the brewing process. The beer is stored in two 10-pint bottles until ready to drink.  The finished product is dispensed from these bottles using an innovative tap, which also doubles as a clever gas carbonator for the beer. Beer brewed using ibrew is all-natural, containing only malt, hops, water and yeast.

The set costs £64.99 and would make a cracking pressie if not brewing up for the gusest in Christmas day.
