Welcome Boozebags

So here’s the part where I’m supposed to tell you about us and why we started this website, I cant remember a time when I’ve purposely clicked on the about us page, But If you’ve accidentally stumbled upon this page then Lets pretend your actually interested.

If you haven’t been hiding under a rock or aren’t from a different planet (I bet some of you on this website are on a different planet at times) then I’m sure you can remember Covid and the lockdown rules that went along with it. I’m an out and about sort of person so being stuck in doors, told we cant leave was torture to me!

Nipping to the bar for a few pints to get away from the wife and get a little me time was no longer an option! My wife’s girly nights out where I would slob out on the couch by myself watching, as she would say “my sh**e”, was no more, we’re stuck in doors together for the foreseeable future and have to make the most of it!

Boredom would sink in by 11am, going to B and Q, standing for hours outside in a queue, just to get in the shop to look at paint brushes became the highlight of our week, ordering absolute crap from the internet so we had an excuse to go to the local skip with the empty boxes, just to get out the house became the norm, how pathetic!

We needed a hobby! that’s when we thought of having a go at making our own beer and wine.

We ended up really enjoying it and it really did help pass the time, making the beer or wine then enjoying drinking it, not only that it saved us money as making your own is a lot cheaper than buying it!

The only thing that was annoying, was when you spent time and money making a batch of beer or wine, you look forward to the time when you can finally drink it, and when you try it and it tastes like filth its annoying, its not brands you can buy at a shop you make so you already know what it tastes like, you just need to hope for the best when the time comes.

That’s when we thought about doing this website, to give our opinions about what beer and wine we like, a little review about the booze and to save people time and money trying out beers or wines that they might not enjoy.

So there you have it, if you’ve managed to read this far, well done, I almost fell asleep writing it!

CHEERS 👍
