Highly easy, rewarding and cheap to brew your own beer.
This is true. My apartment here in Shanghai is not gigantic by any means, but it's fine for brewing. The space required is very little.

I have a Belgian tripel that is pretty much ready to go right now and be bottled. A keg set up is ideally what I would like to put it into, but don't have that just yet.

I have never used a home brew kit. I was just instructed in whole grain brewing by a friend of mine and it's really not too difficult. If I was in Canada where supplies were cheaper and easier to get I would do a lot more. It's a cool hobby.
