Frankly, if you wanted something remotely close quality wise to purchased beer, you need good equipment (ie filtration and pressurized system). It get's too expensive, requires too much space, and too much damn time. The only thing going for it is novelty.. as it's cool to make your own.

But if you just go in with basic equipment, beer is blah, and hope you like sediment. A seperate dedicated room is needed for the large containers in different fermenting stages, not to mention store the beer... and then also a clean area to wash and sterlize all the containers.
Does it end up being much cheaper than store bought?
