The Science behind Fermentation for Wine and Beer.  I didn't place it in the Science section purely because there are a lot of hobbyist's that like brewing their own or at the very least participate in drinking. (Although Teetotaller's might be classed as something slightly different.)

As for Zyme/Enzyme, not sure but it probably did originate that way.

That would have been my third guess.
Do you brew beer Stryder?

Alas, Currently not.  I've considered doing so, the problem is I put that thought on a backburner and tend to realise I'm in the wrong season to make anything Confused

I know some good spots for Elderberries, blackberries etc (If I don't get caught "poaching", I guess that's what it would be.)  Although saying that I suppose there is various brewers kits I could pick-up for other beverages like Ale.  It's something I need to look towards in the future.

I would brew beer, but I have very little self control so would probably certainly drink too much of it.
I am already overweight, so don't want any more empty calories.

It's not for me unfortunately.

I used to make some very nice wine from bananas, in gallon flagons.
The more rotten the bananas, the better, so if you went to the market late on a Saturday,
you could pick up bagfulls for next to nothing.
It was better than anything you could buy under £4.
