You've answered your own question in the OP, it's an addictive habit.

homebrew probably costs more than supermarket beers these days
unless ofcourse you brew it in the bath and get maximum amounts , but a little barrel in your shed will be gone in a night growing drugs is a money earner for sure , people charge £25 for 2gram of weed and its only going up |

B-B, I went to pick up a prescription last week and as there was a 15 minute wait I popped into the pub across the road for a quick pint and a read of my paper, a pint of Amstel lager was £5.65. I hardly ever smoke but do have a bifter every now and then when I'm playing late night poker. Half an ounce of GV would last me for a month easily.
