Credited to be good for the head, heart and hair among other things, and even speculated to be instrumental in the establishment of civilisations, beer is most definitely one of the most popular beverages, the world over. Be it in the 'Dopplebock' brewed by the Italian monks of the Order of St. Francis of Paula in Bavaria, or the more widely produced 'Lager'; every brewery boasts of its own particular flavour. But now, owing to the ingenuity of Hammacher Schlemmer, you too can brew your own beer!

Hammacher Schlemmer's 'Professional Microbrewery' is the automated brewing system used in professional microbreweries, scaled for the home brewmeister. An integrated touch screen monitor allows a selection between a refreshing lager, a spirited hefeweizen, or a full bodied stout, by simply entering a recipe. Now what more could you ask for?

Besides the microbrewery (completely structured in stainless steel), all that's needed is water and a 220-volt A/C, and not to forget an investment of $45,000.
