Could you brew a small batch (1 gal) batch of beer, but ferment it on a stir plate to speed up the process...much like a starter. If a starter ferments out in a day or so, couldn't you brew up a simple batch that does the same? Maybe let it ferment out for 2 or 3 days, then cold crash for a day or so then bottle in a couple of 2 liters or keg?
I know it wouldn't be the greatest beer, but for a simple session ale would it be decent? Or if you wanted to experiment with different hops, you could make a bunch of these in succession with different hops to taste the difference?
maybe something like this:
1 lb Light DME
2 oz Crystal 40
.25 oz hops at 60
.25 oz hops at 10
simple pale ale.
