Yep, been a couple of years for me now. I've got to bottle a batch tonight or soon. Some specialty grains and 9 pounds of malt extract (I don't do all grain yet) and about 5 ounces of el dorado hops. It almost blew the lid off after 24 hours but I got a blow off tube connected in time. It'll be a nice one, OG 1070 so a nice percent of alcohol. Probably would cost 10 bucks a six pack but I made it for about half that. Thats the trick with home brew. It's not that you can always make it cheaper, but you can make a great beer as cheaply as a swill beer costs.
Here's the kit:
