hi, i bottled 160 pints this week,and am drinking some geordie bitter right now (2.20am), from 3 weeks ago, and can say am bloody impressed by it...however, one of my favourite drinks is hobgoblin as well as golden glory, now i have seen the ingredients for sale on a link on here from someones post, forget who, but anyways, it costs £9.95, thats not the problem.

Since its all grain and hops etc, its made differently from a kit, and so,i would like to know what sort of equipment do i need to have to brew from grain, hops etc,because i would like to have a go at that sort of venture as well!
Also, is there a recipe for golden glory on the site, or does someone know somewhere that does!!
Thanks guys
 
Probably worth mentioning the Brew in a Bag (BIAB) route as well. It's the cheapest way of doing an AG brew and just involves a boiler and a big mesh bag. Beyond this I'm the wrong person to ask as I use a mash tun but Rich27500 makes good beer using this method.
 
Did any of you 2008 newbies go down this route?

Thinking of the opening poster etc.
