My wife is totally cool with me taking over the kitchen for a day whilst I brew. She's not quite at my level of beer admiration, but she's getting there.
 
My wife basicly supports it, she likes beer but doesn't drink too much. She has rolled her eyes at me a few times when I talk of getting more equipment or brewing another batch, but she has never tried to stop me so I guess that is support right??
 
She was pretty skeptical at first then realised that even my oops's were better than her bud light now she keeps asking what/when the next one is gonna be, and has given me free range on a small brewhouse after we're married
 
Other than taking a few sips of my homebrew and giving a "eh" response, SWMBO doesn't drink. I wouldn't say she supports my brewing, like cheering me on or whatever, but she definitely knows her place when it comes to me and my brewing. She doesn't complain at all about my time or money spent in my "hobby" (addiction), she suggests different ingredients/recipes/equipment when we go shopping, she will help out with my brewing, and she even goes to my drunken events with we and my friends just to sit there to wait to drive me home!

So I have designated a tap for whatever soda she wants.
