Beer brewing for the meme generation

[imbibehour]

Thought i'd post this here, since I haven't really done my own brew since well... way back when I helped my dad... when I was .. young.

Things have changed.

Either way, things turned out real well so far can't wait to drink this in 2 weeks.

Homebrewtalk.com has been very helpful with old and new threads and techniques to read up on. Also there is a recipe on here that I plan on making next as long as this beer turns out nicely.



Cheers!

Funny! Strain it don't strain it. OK, I did laugh. More than once.

But a little manic. I was thinking TSA. Oooof.

OK, sorry for that, shouldn't compare anyone to TSA.

I'm still watching, laughed some more.

"It's a flower."

Your bottling process needs help. Fer sure.

"I don't like using a hydrometer that much." hah.

OK, video done. I liked it. Great job. Can't wait to see the follow up in 2 wks.

Well done! That was funny,you oughta be on you...oh,wait a tick...you were. Nevermind.

I made this as a parody for the soundbite younger generation who doesn't really have time to wait, or figure things out by taking their time.

None of my existing videos are like this, but this one is filled with lots of jump cut editing, sound bites, and beer memes as much as I could.

I can't make something like this again, it took me far too long in terms of editing and work. The dancing cut out guy is a reference to the beer geek videos on Vimeo. Took me forever to figure out that longer than it was to understand some brewing techniques.

Want to thank the old threads and data that is on here at homebrewtalk.com it was very helpful.

I think your video was funnier in some ways than the geek guy. You displayed a real talent for this sort of thing. Not forced & contrary like TSA.

Absatively posolutely!

I hope you don't give up your day job as the village bafoon. The vid was quite funny. However, it lacked in originality and theater. Even, so, I was about to commit suicide, until I saw your vid....Thanks Man.............I have down loaded and made a copy of the vid. I'll take it to Therapy tomorrow. The whack jobs will get a kick out of it. Although, they will have no idea what the frig you're talking about. They will, somehow, tie it into some part of their meaningliness lives. When things go weird, the weird turn pro...Keep up the good work!!

Yours sincerely;

All of us at Belview University.

In a way I really hate this, but that's because I really really love it.

*nice* touch of the meme.

(Didn't show the hardest part... getting those beers into bottles. I just bottled last night and I swear there were moments I was positive I was going to drop the siphon and spray my wall and ceilings...)

 

[JuGordon]

HAHA. I like your fermentation sequence. "Is it ok? IT'S OK! Is it fermenting? Is it infected!? It's not infected... well maybe..."

That is probably my favorite brew day video ever. I like it, very much.

 

[Hackwood]

Goofy, funny and awesome. That hit the spot on a lazy Sunday in PHX!

Thanks and hope the brew turns out good!

This is basically the war I have inside my head on a daily basis...

 

[DrakeSuperbus]

Well done.


The only thing I'll say is that meme rhymes with team.

 

[Komocabo]

Thats just plain silly...

 

[imbibehour]

Well done.

Well I guess I am not in with the young cool crowd then anymore

so...

want.. to drink..

the beer...

now...

(patience...)

 

[Komocabo]

Can he open one yet? No, he should wait. But it might be ready and perfect. No, wait... more... time... patience! I'm going to put just one in the fridge

 

[SilverZero]

tl;dw.

 

[jonnyp1980]

This video is awesome. I'm sharing it. Thanks for the laugh.

 

[grem135]

Great vid! Watched on tablet with headphones and kept getting weird looks from SWMBO....

 

[LandoLincoln]

It was a very entertaining video. Good work!

 

[unionrdr]

I still think he needs to do more of these. He def has a talent for the comedic.:rockin:

The term was created by an evolutionary biologist in the mid 70s. Being young and cool has nothing to do with it.

 

[unionrdr]

Talent speaks for itself...!

Hey! Dawkins was young and cool when he coined it...

 

[drlars]

Nice vid, man. I appreciate the obvious love that went into it.
Very funny, too. You have sort of a Chris Elliott / Louis C.K. thing working for you.
What would make it even better would be to have a post-script with you enjoying/evaluating the finished product.

@Woozy: Richard "Blind Watchmaker" Dawkins coined the term "meme"? You are blowing my mind.

He coins it in "The Selfish Gene"

Of course. In the selfish gene. Um, why does this blow your mind?

I heard an interview on NPR where a guest explained this to the host and the host said "wow, I never would have expected that. I'm totally blown away."

I have to wonder what did she think the term "meme" meant and where did she think the term came from?
