Wine. Not now because I don't have the space.. but I've always been fascinated by wine-making and the chemistry of it all. As a kid we had a country house with lots of space and land and always rows of demijohn bottles bubbling away. Amazing what you can get to brew, almost any fruits or sugary plant will work, some I remember are
Nettle - the nasty stingy things make good wine. Blackberry Strawberry - really yummy Elderberry and elderflower - subtle and dry Cannabis - yep, you can make dope wine Plum - very sweet wine Sloe - "sloe gin" from really bitter fruits Gooseberry - the green pimply ones Rose Hip - a very English wine Tea - never thought it had any sugar but folks make tea wine Mead - wine made from honey is amazing
I believe you can use grapes too!
Like the sound of Hans harmfully strong chocolate stout, dark Trappist ales and stouts are my kind of beer, I had a few good ones in Germany.

Since we're still talking about beers, I want to ask if there's any pd'ers out there who homebrew? It is a favorite hobby of mine, though I am not able to make a batch very often. I have on a couple occaisions made an incredibly strong ale, not fit for human consumption, including one stout that is leftover from spring.
