Hi

I have 5 gallons (25 litres) of elderberry and beer wine brewing just now. I
think it will be really good.
The most potent wine to date is Carrot which blows your socks off but tastes
very good.
My favourite is Banana. I am using a very old recipe and it turns out like a
very smooth spirit rather than a wine.

I have been told that the best wine is Elderberry and Stout. Do you guys in
US know what Stout is?

Good newsgroup
I will certainly visit again
regards
Peter
