My number 3 son wanted to do a brew with me. Yes, he's under age and under adult supervision, but I explained what was gonna happen, stressed cleanliness, and we started from there. It was a simple extract ale, with some DME and a bit of Irish moss, nothing fancy. Basically I just pointed and he did all the work, I had the heavy lifting job. We purposlly used the glass carboy to get the visual effect and were done brewing in about 2 hours. The next morning it was bubbling nonstop, and still going. We covered it with a black sweatshirt, and let it go. I peeked in on it and he was sniffing the airlock a little bit later. He comes out and says "Dad, it smells like a good batch". Man, made my chest swell up, and throat got all tight.
If that don't beat video games and TV, I don't know what will.
