Thanks!
It's really not as complicated as I thought it was before I started... well... it doesn't have to be.
Take a bunch of crushed grains, steep in hot water for about an hour, strain the resulting liquid and boil it for about an hour, adding hops throughout for different flavor profiles, then cool it down and throw the yeast in. A few weeks later you have a fine alcoholic beverage.
There are some other details and you can get way into the weeds with it, but that's the basic premise.
