Hello all,
I am wondering if others have felt the way I feel about our beloved hobby and passion. I love brewing for the love of the science, methods, creativity, and that fact that its something I can look at and call my own. The good taste and the buzz are definitely pluses too! I have this weird feeling about telling others (especially in the professional world) that I brew beer. I feel some outsiders may view this as me sitting around getting drunk on my own beer all the time and being irresponsible. I am especially cautious because I am a professional within the medical field. Others may be quick to judge because I am creating alcohol instead of doing something to save the world like researching the cure for cancer. I feel like I have to keep it secret from most and its hard because I am proud of my hobby and want to take further to being known in competition and possibly a brewery owner years down the road. Hope im not the only person who feels this way.
