So I was on my way home from work today, cruising down the freeway at 82MPH. I look in my rear view mirror and see flashing red and blue lights and all I think of is crap here comes a ticket. The officer walks up to my car and introduces himself and asks for my license, insurance and registration. As I'm getting these forums for him he asked why I was in a hurry. I honestly told him that I had a long and stressful day at work and I'm just looking forward to getting home to brew my next batch of beer. I look at him to see his reaction and I realize he has a smile on his face. He asks "you homebrew?" I said "yes, as often as I can. It's my hobby and stress reliever from work." He get's all excited and tell's me he's a fellow homebrewer himself. We seriously get into this 5 minute conversation about how long he's been brewing, what homebrews he has on tap, telling me he just finished building his home bar area where he has his beer on tap for friends and family. At the end he just advised me to slow down the rest of my way home and enjoy my day brewing! That was the best experience with a police officer I've ever had! Not saying I've ever had a bad experience with a police officer haha, but he was the coolest guy. I could tell that was also his passion and we just both hit it off on the highway haha. Just thought I'd share this awesome and weird experience with you guys!
