The project manager on a job site I'm working on heard I brewed beer. He proceeded to tell me how when he was tree planting, the natives showed him how to mix sugar and water in a 5 gallon bucket, add bread yeast, and put it in the sun for a week. Then you can scoop it right out of the bucket. In his words, "I had a couple shots and was messed right up! It had more alcohol than moonshine does!" I laughed, and didn't tell him I was laughing at him.
Sounds like they might have dropped a couple mushrooms in there when he wasn't looking....
