Simple recipe??

[Mortblanc]

I am sick of looking all over creation and finding every recipe requires a degree in chemistry or engineering to attain a pint of brew. Out ancestors did not have what we seem to require in equipment and contents and they managed to stay pretty well buzzed down through the ages.

Does anyone have a simple recipe for a quick beer that can be brewed on the stove at home with zero scientific controls.

It needs to use common ingredients and no exotic spices or aids, sort of like the barley/water/hops/yeast of the old German standard.

Only I do not have hops and barley!

I have corn (maize)!

It also needs to be quick! None of this "age 6 months before drinking" crap.

I want something I can start making using limited ingredients the day after SHTF and start drinking/selling it a week latter.
