As for fire brewing, my maple syrup experience and outdoor cooking has helped me in this area. Plus the maple sugar is valuable as well, I use it when I process my homegrown tobacco. I'm growing herbs like fennel and mints for menthol to process the tobacco as well. At some point all this begins to tie together, wine making, beer brewing, alcohol distilling, extracts and essential oils, tobacco, cannabis, all the big cash crops and products you'd need for the black market, er, I mean personal use of course.
My grandmother made wine from almost anything grown. From elderberry to potatoes. Her porch was never empty and folk came from miles around to visit her.
I never learned how to make any of it, but I am a really good taste tester.
For every one person that read this post. About 7.99 billion have not.
Yet I still post.
