Do we need watch who we respond too?

Not that I am promoting it but I am just barely 21. I started when I was 18 because making beer isn't like being a dumb drunk teen. It's science and experimentation and it's a pain in the butt unless you really like doing it. If they are going to be dumb and ask about table sugar and bread yeast boot em off, you don't have to register to ask about that. I was courteous enough to wait until my birthday to register here but I was able to find every answer I needed here and now am a knowledgeable home-brewer three years in the making promoting it to other people. So any kids reading this... If you want to get drunk off home-brew you're wasting your time, you won't be sanitary enough, you won't let it age right, you won't even know proper mixtures and you're gonna dump it anyways and it's more expensive. If you're like me... Just research, researching isn't illegal as neither is buying equipment. Just don't get yourself in trouble and don't ruin home brewing for everyone!

I'm proud of you!

I'm proud of you!

Thank You! Now I'm into all grain, propane burners, and oak barrels! Good luck doing that as a minor unless your parent brews!

What's chocolate dope?

That's what we called the can of hershey's syrup that you put on ice cream.

I'd like to think that if i have a kid some day, when they are 12 or so I will get them heavily involved into a brewing process that looks and smells gross, and results in a beer that will repulse anyone who hasn't acquired a taste for it.

And give 'em a small glass.

Of course, some day they will get over that, and at that point I'd like to think I could limit 'em to one pint, when I'm home. maybe two on saturday if they mow the lawn. And I'll probably have to put a lock on the co2 feed to the kegerator or something.

Good luck with that. My kids hate everything brewing related. But I find empty BMC cans in the barn where they occasionally have a DJ and play beer pong. At least I don't have to worry about locking up the beer I have. They steal gas, diesel and other things from me, but beer isn't one of them.
