I made an ESB (http://www.beeradvocate.com/beer/style/66/). It was a kit. I have done the whole nine yards in the past but this was a gift. Making it is super easy. Clean everything, pour it in a bucket. Wait a week. Transfer to carboy. Wait a week. Transfer to bucket. Prime. Bottle. Wait two weeks. Drink. The most time consuming part is easily bottle cleaning followed by bottling. I've made wine before from a kit as well. Process is pretty much identical to beer making. In Canada our booze are taxed to hell and back so making your own is more cost effective :)
