Tasting FOUR Homemade Wines and FIVE Beers

  • It's time for something a little bit different. Over the last couple of years we've tried our hand at making wine - and beer - from various fruits and vegetables that grow on our small farm in Portugal.
    We've made a selection of country wines from a wide variety of fruit including cherry wine, plum wine, peach wine and others. We've even dabbled with "proper" wine made from grapes as well as beer brewed from grains. A number of people have asked how our wine making is going so we thought what better way to answer that than to do a taste test. But don't take our word for it - let's find out what some (mostly) impartial guests think of our home brew concoctions.
    Will it be delicious or disgusting? Let's find out!

    Emma and Kat stole the show; lovely combo that must be fun to hang out with (particularly after a few!). Great video!

    Always love it when your sister and her partner show up. I can't recall the last time I saw someone go from stone cold sober to not-quite-half-tanked in less than 20 minutes! 😀

    Could I make a suggestion? I think that your sister and her partner have very good personalities and relationship for a RUclips channel reviewing food, wine, travel locations etc. maybe you would consider suggesting this to them?

    Well well. The beer maker will be proud of himself and, of course, the courgette wine which went down a bomb. Lovely change and clearly shows your versatility at digging deeper into the intricacies of any recipe be it hemp, beer or wine.

    That was fun to watch and we wish we were there. Reminds us of our attempt to make strawberry wine. Half the demi-john contents exploded over the kitchen, we used the rest to make 6 bottles. 5 exploded inside our back porch. The only remaining bottle fizzed so much, we had to wait half an hour for the bubbles to subside but we drank it out in the garden (safest place) on a very warm day. It was gorgeous but waaay too dangerous 🤣.

    We used to make shed loads of wine in the early 1980's and found that the most drinkable were the root wines.. especially parsnip. The one we had the most hope for was a rosehip - in the fermenting it was amazing - but drinking was disgusting. I do have a load of cherry brandy on the brew, and that is amazing. Thanks for the vlog, always a joy.

  • @tessasinclair6315

    Very knowledgeable test subjects. Good input.
    Very entertaining. Well done, all of you.
    I'm a teetotaler, by the way. Judging by the girls' glazed looks after just the wine, One sniff and I'd be walking one of Kylie's most intricate knitting patterns - that stuff looks potent 😂 8:53

    @oomwat6101 10 месяцев назад +8

    You can use a water distiller to 'recover' the alcohol off the failed wines, you can then combine that and strip off the top and bottom end to remove the off flavours, and then use the result to make limoncello with.

    1.) Kylie’s hair style:10/10
    2.) The girls were good sports about it all:
    “Tastes like cough syrup “
    “A hangover in a glass”😆
    “Smells like the cat’s litter tray.”😆😆😆
    “Smells like paint thinner.”
    “What does cerveja mean?”😵‍💫 🍺😄
    Very entertaining video!
    3.) I was relieved that Guy didn’t approve of ALL the samples.

    A fantastic video. As a home wine maker myself I was really interested . I made so many different wines but a favourite was Plum. My sister & I once drank Plum which was still slightly fermenting and we were as drunk as a skunk after 1 bottle ! I found that, if the wine was too acidic / sour / dry, if you add some sugar (in steps, not a pound at a time !) & gentle turn the bottle to dissolve it can become a drinkable dessert or summer sit-around- and-chat wine.

    The homemade vine I made during the years always gets better by storage for a year or more, nowdays become convenient and buys the vine needed. If there's a place in your magical Portugese mansion not really needed why not a vine cellar?
    As always; Love the work - love the result.

    That was great fun- had a grin on my face throughout..
    Reminded me of when I started working and a bunch of lads living next door were always borrowing milk, tea, sugar etc from us. They would pay us back in homemade beers - a very mixed experience I think but my memory is a bit hazy for some reason. Could have been the.alcohol volume (the next day headaches were epic)!,
