I Brewed 99 Beers In 99 Weeks
Вставка
- Опубліковано 28 лип 2024
- Making beer was something I always wanted to try. So I did it 99 times in a row, one per week. I brewed the entirety of the beer brewing guidelines defined in the 2015 BJCP Style Guidelines. Lagers and ales. German, English, Belgian and American styles. This is my story of how I made 99 beer styles.

Scrolling through the comments here it's quite overwhelming to see so much encouragement and support. THANK YOU! It's been a pleasure taking the challenge with this community. See you in a new video soon - Martin.
Legend!
Thanks mate really interesting and entertaining. Don't go away, cheers.
Can't wait for the next chapter, thanks Martin
Don't be gone too long Martin!!
Thanks Martin. I've spent the last 4.5 years recovering from a car accident and serious brain injury. I had to completely rebuild my life in every way from surgery to rehabilitation to many different therapies. I tuned in to your channel shortly after the 99 beer brewing challenge began and never missed an episode. You helped to pass the time and ease my suffering as time did its healing thing. As one who lived in Mons, Belgium and learned to drink all its many unique beers, who drank Hefeweizen for the first time in Oberammergau, Southern Bavaria, Germany, who then began homebrewing a few years later, I've enjoyed your channel and for this I say thank you so very much for all your creativity and hard work. Cheers My Friend!
Thank you for sharing this. I’m glad the videos were of some value as you worked through difficult times. I’m also insanely jealous of your drinking locales!
Well my mind is blown finding out that Lauren is your step daughter haha.
Same! Martin is apparently very young looking for his true age.
@@eltorpedo67 Proof beer makes you look younger :-)
Definitely a compliment to how young Martin looks!
How old is Martin ?
Shocked as well! I just assumed wife so this was a real kicker.
I'm not going to lie, I have a slight tear in my eye watching this.
It was a fun challenge to be apart of!
Obviously you’ve been a massive part of this. It’ll be odd not having a weekly beer to taste together.
Hey man - I've been following along throughout lots of the videos, learned a huge amount and brewing some of the more niche styles. Would love to do a collab with you one day so I'm glad you're keeping on keeping on!
Would love to collab on something. I see you were in my hometown (Southampton) recently.
Oh yeah! I'd love to see that collab
Two of my favourite channels!
Just to let you know, your old Unibrau is doing well and brewing some fine beers. Thanks!
Love hearing this!
I’m astounded at how you have remained thin.
If I brewed a beer a week for 2 years I’d be wider than I am tall.
Congrats
Well crap I really thought Lauren was Martin's wife. I feel stupid now
We have been through a lot together! Classy ending to a big achievement. And we know who Lauren is now!! Congrats! 🍻
Thanks!
Thanks for the recap of the 99 beer project. The plan going forward sounds fun too!
Thanks!
The mind-blowing moment for me was when you said you took courses at Wake Tech Community. Which is mad, because I grew up in Raleigh and took classes there myself, but have lived much of my adult life as a immigrant to Scotland. I left and never looked back - hard to imagine someone choosing to make NC home!
Dude, I NEVER leave comments on UA-cam videos. But I’m making an exception here.
Congrats! You made it! And I know you say you’ve learned a lot…but so have I. Yours are my favorite brewing videos and it’s not even close. Well produced, informative, and fun without being ridiculous or obnoxious.
Glad you’re going to continue. Well done, sir.
I’m honored! Thanks so much for watching.
Congrats again, Martin! Great re-cap video. What a journey....!
This is super impressive. When you first started it I knew you were sincere but skeptical that anyone could follow through for almost 2 years at this but you made it. While I haven’t seen all the videos, I started watching you around 300 subscribers from what I recall and remember being shocked the day I showed up on your door to buy equipment you had listed on craigslist or Facebook and being caught off guard thinking how random a coincidence that was and no idea you were local. I think you said I was the first person that had recognized you from UA-cam. Anyway, just thought I’d share that memory and congratulate you on an amazing job!
Haha I still remember that although don’t recall what you bought. Sure was odd to be recognized.
So thrilled to have been a tiny part of this effort. Congrats Martin!
Thanks Norm. Ace tasting appearance as usual.
This series was inspirational for me as I entered the homebrewing world in my last year of college... my 6 roommates and I would like to thank you for the content
So many built in beer tasters there
Really great video capturing the fun and learning that you have had along the way. Glad to have been a small part of it and cant wait to see what's next! Cheers Martin! 🍻
Thanks man.. great to have your smiling fan in the finale.
GREAT JOB!!! Will admit got a little teary eyed watching this! Looking forward to whats next and will of course be trying more of your recipes!
Haha, thank you so much!
First, Thanks for all the entertainment, Second, Thanks for all the recipes , I Now have a category in Beer Smith called Home Brew Challenge. Let me say I really appreciated it when you
started using percent instead of weight for malt amount. It made it much easier to convert to my 10 gallon system. The product reviews were also a great help in deciding what was useful.
Thanks again and I'll see youtube (small pun).
Haha sounds like you and I have similar looking BeerSmith recipe sections
Bravo, this is one of the best UA-cam journeys I've been on. Congratulations on a job well done.
Thank you!
Martin! never stop to doing your videos! they are quite important for all the home brewers around the world! Thank you, you teach us so much!!!
Thanks!
It was a nice journey and filled a difficult time with some interesting content. Thanks.
Thanks.
Glad you're still going to be posting brewing content. Looking forward to you exploring and refining what you like, rather than what you're forced to explore.
Yes looking forward to the freedom.
Thank you so much for taking us on this journey! Much appreciated!
Congratulations on clearing the challenge! That's some awesome dedication.
Thank you!
Thank you from France for this brewing journey
Thanks! Good win today in the Euros ⚽️
oh man what a great adventure :) I discover you last year when I started brewing my beer. You are grerat inspiration!
Thank you!
I don't feel this is over until I see the tasting of the flanders red and lambic.
I did't miss any video, they were my favorite show. thanks martin
Thanks for watching. And yes those sours will be ready at Christmas. I have my fingers crossed they’ll be worth the wait.
Remember when this started, honestly with everything going on in he world and my personal life have this weekly video drop every week was some form of comfort in a way.
Thank you for all your work, looking forward to what comes next.
Thank you! Turned out to be a good time to pick up a hobby that involved staying indoors by myself for long periods of time.
This is great! I started August 10th 2022 and finished September 12th 2022. I can not wait for your next series!
There are a lot of great brewers on UA-cam putting out videos, but Martin, you are the best, so much fun, so much info.....I believe everyone that has ever watched one of your videos wants to sit down and drink a beer with you......looking forward to more of your vids.
Thanks so much!
Thank you for sharing your journey with us Martin!! It has been incredibly inspiring as a new-ish brewer. (1.5 years) A big thank you also to Lauren, the other amazing guests, and to ABS! Looking forward to what you have planned for the future. Cheers!
Thanks!
It’s hard to believe I’ve been watching these shenanigans since early on in the home brew how to days. Congrats on the first challenge! Can’t wait for the next!
That’s some dedication right there! 😀
Shut up, I'm not crying you're crying. Grats again on the challenge Martin and can't wait to see more videos in the future. Cheers to filling my days with inspiration and bookmark after bookmark of recipes!
Thank you!
Martin, I came in to the Homebrew Challenge after you had been uploading a year...when I want to see someone else give a steady step by step and a solid recipe - I come here. So nice for you to finish the challenge and cap it off with introducing us to all the people that made it possible. I hope you have a rest and then come back with fun new content - Now, I have to go find your barleywine video and watch...CHEERS!
Good luck with that barleywine. Thanks for watching.
Well Martin, congrats on wrapping up 99 beers! Can't wait to see what you do next.
And BTW - I won a monthly club brew competition with a derivative of your cream ale recipe. Average score was 40.5/50
Nice going!
I appreciate everyone who takes time to share their homebrewing knowledge with others for free but your channel goes above and beyond with the production quality & comprehensiveness. I've learned a lot from these videos & enjoyed watching them to boot. Cheers 🍻
This is great to hear, thank you!
I started my all Grain adventure and grew with your help, thanks Martin !
Great to hear.
Just wow. This is the first time stumbling across your channel and looks like I got some videos to watch. I recently started home brewing and only brewed two beers. I considered creating a challenge for myself to brew 12 beers in a year and was wondering if somebody had done similar on UA-cam and here I am. That’s crazy!
Ive been homebrewing for a little over a year now, and watched soooooo many of your videos. Mate, what an accomplishment! Well done and thank you!
Thanks!
Been watching for the past year- it's been a great journey to watch with my homebrewer boyfriend every Tuesday. Always love the tastings with Lauren - always excited to see what's happening and to see where you go from here!
Thanks for watching!
It is unbeliaveble: when I started to watch this series, since the beginning, I never thought about this moment...but here we are, you did it!!!
I am an homebrewer from italy, and you inspired me a lot... thank you and cheer's 🍺
But there is a beer style that I am trying to master and it's not so common: Italian grape ale. Maybe you could have some fun with this wild fermentation beer!
Thank you. Well that sounds like an interesting style for sure.
Martin! Martin, Martin, Martin! I'm Adam from Slovakia and this was a fucking big big BIG journey with you and I loved it so much that nearly my tears are coming out. I watched every video and I liked every of tham week after week. Thank you for this amazing experiance. I'm also a home brewer my self and you gave me a really lot of tips, tricks and ideas. Keep on the good work Martin! I love you and your channel!
Thanks so much for the kind words Adam!
Amazing stuff, keep it up. Excited to see where this goes....
Thanks
Great Job! I learned a lot from these and reference them when people ask about beer styles!
This series has made me a much better brewer and I know I'm not the only one who can say that. Martin, thanks for bringing the BJCP list to life and giving us something else to look forward to during these crazy times. Your channel (and a couple others) inspired me to start my own homebrew channel and I can't thank you enough for doing what you do! Cheers Martin, I hope to have a beer with you someday!
Great to hear, thank you!
Congrats M. Keene. You're the best!!! happy to know that the journey continues. Cheers!
Thank you.
Dude, I came to the party very late, but I've just gotten through the entire playlist. I called it the "homebrew challenge challenge", lol. This came at such a good time for me as I've only just gotten back into brewing after many years of putting this wonderful hobby on the shelf. I'm more inspired than ever to just brew and keep brewing some of these styles I haven't heard much about. Belated congratulations on completing your challenge - it's such an amazing effort.
Wow congrats on completing the Homebrew Challenge Challenge! 😀
Awesome job, keep it coming, well deserving of a break. Love the collabs and hope you do more of those too. Cheers from sunny Aus.
Cheers!
Thanks. It was really fun and lots of learning seeing your videos
Thank you for making this series
Outstanding work man. Congrats, well done, and fair play for the hard work and effort that went into all of this. Really enjoyed it and I'll look forward to any more that may come. Sláinte!
Have you considered polling your viewers for most wanted brews, variations or recipes? Could be fun
I’m afraid what might top the polls!
Bravo!!! I've loved watching your channel through the challenge and I can't wait to watch what's next!
What a legend. I struggle to brew every few months. This keeps me going. Also we are Clawhammer and Tesla twins!
🙌
Thanks Martin. Your content has been an inspiration for me!
great work mate. ive really enjoyed watching this series. its given me alot of encouragement to try brewing different styles. legend !
Thank you Martin, looking forward for the next 99 weeks! cheers mate
I've watched every video since the Czech lager and I've really seen this as a part of the weekly routine. You could ask my girlfriend. I had just started brewing and I knew nothing and because of your tips and tricks I can proudly say I serve some tasty beer now. When I did my military service your videos ment alot to me and it kept me grounded so many times. I will miss the challenge but I look forward to the future. If you are ever in Sweden and need anything I'll be there for you!
This is great to hear - thanks!
Thank you Martin....Amazing channel and I am waiting for what ever comes next.
I'm super glad that UA-cam suggested your videos for me last May. It helped get me back into brewing and I've enjoyed your journey! Thanks again and I look forward to good things in the future!
I've been there since the beginning and always thought your channel was one of the best. Thanks for pushing the envelope and getting outside of your box and sharing your brewing adventures.
Thanks for sticking with me for so long.
Really enjoyed watching you through this journey Martin.. thanks for the entertainment and inspiration.
Congratulation Martin, that was Nice Beer Journey. Thank You
You made me start homebrewing and I cannot thank you enough for that! Can't wait to see what's coming next 👍 Val from France
Great to hear!
Less than 2 weeks ago, I started watching this series. Several very enjoyable and informative binge sessions later, I arrive at this video. Bittersweet to say the least. Fantastic stuff, Martin.
Wow all 99 videos in 2 weeks? Hats off to you 🧢
I got into brewing just after Christmas 2019 when I got a basic extract starter kit from my other half. I came across your videos not long after that and by the start of the pandemic in March 2020 I’d got an all in one and started all grain. Yourself and Clawhammer Supply have been a fantastic resource, whether that’s plenty of information on what to put in certain styles from you or the even when it all goes wrong just have a laugh and drink a beer ethos from Clawhammer. Thanks very much for your weekly videos
Great to hear you’ve really got into the hobby.
Amazing! I can’t wait to see what’s next! I look forward to your videos every week
Thank you!
Great job Martin! It's been a great journey to follow along! The dedication is admirable. Congratulations from Kiruna, northenmost Sweden.
Well done mate - massive effort . Really like your vlogs
99 Brews in 99 weeks is a monumental achievement, in any style. Kinda funny though the legal limit is 200 gallons per 2 adult household per year, but we won't tell.
Hahaha. Well I was only brewing 3 gallon batches Officer
Great job and looking forward to seeing more great videos soon!!
Thanks!
Thanks for the videos. I have enjoyed watching all of these over such a long time and learned a lot.
Thanks!
great job man, thanks for all the hardwork, please keep up posting videos
Thank you!
Absolutely class videos. Enjoyed watching them all and look forward to more in the future.
Thanks so much!
I’ve learneds a lot from your videos. I can’t wait to see what else you have in store!
Thanks!
Cheers Martin. . I've been with you the whole journey and loved every minute of it .. bring on part 2 🍺👍
Thanks for watching!
Good work mate massive effort.
I have to say thank you very much for your videos. It helped me a lot when I had doubt about style, taste or recipe. You showed the real homebrewer spirit! Um forte abraço do Brasil!
Fantastic mate. Looking forward to future brews!!
Thanks!
Thanks for taking us along on this journey. As a beginner homebrewer i had questions that either you or others in the comment section answered which helped me a lot. Your videos made the pandemic a little more bearable! Looking forward to whats coming next. Cheers!
Thank you!
it’s been an enjoyable and educational, Martin. I’m looking forward to you next incarnation. Thanks.
Thank you!
Good stuff Martin!!! I'm really enjoying your channel.
Thank you.
Loved all the videos, easy to watch and follow with great information. Awesome editing and ofcourse nothing of this wouldve mattered if it wasnt for your great personality. Thanks, looking forward to more content!
Really appreciate your kind words.
Cheers, Martin! Congratulations for pushing through to the end. And thank you for bringing us along.
Thanks for taking the ride with me.
Thanks so much for doing this man, it’s been so nice following you and seeing your editing and camera presence improve also! Hugely inspiring
Thank you. Has definitely been a learning experience with appearing on camera so frequently.
Loved it. Good to hear that we still get to experience all the good videos from you.
Thank you for all the videos that you have made 😀
Thank you Kurt.
Congrats! Your challenge has really inspired me to do more brewing. Thanks so much for all the videos! Keep up the great work!
Thank you! Good luck with the brews.
Thank you so much for this! The recap certainly had me a bit teary eyed! Glad to hear you'll still be around after a much deserved break. I appreciate the commitment to quality videos and educating content, its been a wonderful 99 weeks. Cannot wait for what is next and for an eventual tasting of the sour beers!
Really appreciate this. Yes sour beers at Christmas.
Really enjoyed watching the journey.. learned a lot for my own brewing!! Thanks
Thanks!
I watched that video of yours that blew up right when it came out, no clue that was you. Been watching since week 30 or so, the videos have been amazing and the first place I go when I decide to brew a new style is this channel! I hope the regular brewing videos don't stop, maybe a series of wild, out of the box beers.
Thanks for watching from way back when.
What a good video. Looking forward to watching your stuff for a long while. Congratulations
Thank you
Nice work Martin! Been following since the start and I have learned heaps. Keep it up!
Wow, thanks for watching.
Well done, Martin! You really helped me along my beer-making journey and I always looked forward to see your episodes. Accomplishing a long-term goal is very satisfying. Here’s to more videos in the future!
Thanks. Yes definitely nice to have this completed to conclusion.
Great Job Martin, really love the channel! I’ll be taking my own challenge of finishing up watching all 99 videos before you come back from your break
A challenge of its own for sure!
Carry on Martin!!! Me and my friends are college students and love to brew! We started brewing september 2020 and we´ve never stopped. We moved to grain really quick and your videos really help us. In portugal, the place we live there are really good craft beers however the comunity isn´t as big as the english speaking one, better yet, non existent xD. You really have left a legacy because everytime we try a beer style we always check your videos to see how it´s made and you give excellent tips! One comment I might add is you don´t go into as much detail as other brewing channels, but that´s more than ok, because you've the ability to capture the essence and fun of brewing much better, through your editing and taste tests! So for newcomers you're a godsend! I wish you all the best and please don't stop for the forseeable future xD
This is great to hear. Congrats on taking up the hobby.
Congratulations Martin!! I have really enjoyed your series. Looking forward to your next phase of brewing!
Thank you!
I didn't end up watching all 99, but I saw a ton of them during my personal lockdown and being stranded. Thanks for the wonderful videos and all the effort. I picked up homebrewing last September and we used you a lot for reference. Cheers Martin!
I've really been enjoying the ride, thanks a million for the inspiring content!
Thank you!
Terrific!! Congratulations on completing the journey. Looking forward to what's next.
Thanks!
