Has anyone else had the experience that their local HB guys either tell them or you over hear them tell someone else, 'Yeah, this beer will be done in two weeks - just put it in the primary for a week, check the gravity, when it is done it is done, keg or bottle and you will be consuming right away'... I'm paraphrasing of course but the idea should convey, they want to make you think beer does not need to age like the wine they also sell. The guy in front of me was buying a brewer's best Nut Brown ale and the LHB guy was telling him he could be drinking it in about 3 weeks. 3 weeks! Mine would be just coming out of the primary in 3 weeks going for at least another 2-3 weeks in bottles before drinking.
I suppose they do this to sell kits but I believe that ultimately telling people the truth about proper brewing techniques will actually sell more beer.
