My sister-in-law and her kids were visiting this past weekend and my 14 year old nephew brought a friend.
I was working on cleaning some kegs and they of course saw the keezer and started asking me questions. I mentioned that, yes indeed, I do make my own beer and started telling them about all the chemistry involved and summarizing the steps in general. I was surprised at their curiosity not for the fact that I was making BEER or alcohol like I expected from a 14 year old, but their their intrigue into the brewstand, the valves, pumps, and the chemistry etc... The had genuine questions on how I get beer from a bucket full of grain.
So after all their questions, the friend of my nephew said..
"Does it taste anything like Bud Light?" and I politely replied... "No, not really, its different"
He concluded our conversation succinctly..
"Good", he said, "'Cause my dad let me taste it once and I almost threw up!"
