Brew a primitive mugwort lemon brew with foraged ingredients. This home brew is easy to make and so delicious! Mugwort is easy to forage for, smells delicious, and is a great herb to use in a homemade beer recipe
Mix the water, mugwort, and brown sugar in a large pot. Cut and squeeze the lemons into the pot. Bring the solution to a boil; let it boil for 30 minutes.
Place the pot into a pan of cold water; cool to 70°F (21°C), then add the yeast.
Strain the brew into your fermenter. Position the airlock or cover the fermenter with a paper towel or cheesecloth. Let the brew ferment for 10 days.
Siphon into beer bottles and prime the bottles with 1/2 tsp brown sugar for carbonation (optional). Close the bottles and store somewhere not too hot. The beer will be ready to drink in 3 to 4 weeks.
