I've never brewed a beer before (I've made homemade wine a few times) and I want to try to brew something unique to my area.
Three plants that I know of that grow locally in the Dallas/Fort Worth are a variety of amaranth, dandelions, and Texas persimmon.
I'd prefer to not use hops, as they don't grow naturally in Texas, and if possible I'd like to get my yeast naturally from foraged plants.
I literally have no clue on how to get my own yeast, and I've done a little research on the brewing process and how to use the amaranth seedlings as malt. If anyone can point me in a direction on how to bring my local plants together into a homemade beer I would love them forever.
Thanks
