I've had a beginner kit in my basement for a while, but never had the time to make it. Now with the holidays, I set aside today to brew it. Probably could've done things better and sanitized more effectively, but I'm just happy to have done it at all. Now to let it ferment, and bottle in a week or so. I really hope it doesn't taste like shit...

does -15C have any effects on brewing beer in the driveway?

If you can get to the target temperatures for your recipe, it's not really a problem for the beer. Now for the brewer...

Nope! Just did it a few days ago with a setup mentioned in another comment here.

It’s a significant factor on the energy consumption for sure.
