Are we getting ripped off?

Majority are €3 a bottle. I know for a fact, from home brewers in work, that once you spend €2k on beer making equipment, you can produce beer for less than 50c a bottle.

I know, if I had €2k!

But seriously, it's taken off amazingly and I'm delighted, both for the producers and their employees, along with those of us who buy and enjoy the end result. However I do have to say that I think there are some serious profits being made off this, at €3 a bottle.

Thoughts?

Sorry for very non Fab related subject but I've just d*unk a load of it

Already have the home brew. American IPA at 6.5% and it's dangerous! Not far from what I'm buying in shops though and about €40 for 20ltrs. If you go bigger than 20ltr production though, you buy the actual hops and barley, not mix, so apparently even cheaper.

After you spend that €2k that lovely Beanonti is going to sponsor me on
