23 things homebrewers are tired of hearing....

This is hysterical!

That is freaking hysterical !  #5 is extra good.  Everybody who has ever homebrewed can relate.

I want to print this out and put it next to my taps.  ;D

Yeah, biutu then you wouldn’t have the graphics.  Just put it on infinite loop on a monitor by the taps…

That is funny, but Denny…is it ready yet?  :stuck_out_tongue:

Between the photo of Mila Kunis, the mention of pie, I had a Black Swan flashback

They didn’t have my favorite comment:  Will it get you drunk?

Number 11 is the reason I only open my garage door half way!

My least favorite question is “What kind?”

The beeriest kind.

Funny, but I’m surprised they didn’t include the bathtub comment. “So do you just mix it up in your bathtub?”

Luckily I moved into a neighborhood where there was already a homebrewer, John. Now when the neighbors walk by and I’m brewing, I get comments like “You’re going to outdo John!” or “Givin John a run for his money!” It’s pretty cool to already have the “meth-stigma” broken down AND have a little neighborhood joke going.

Yes, “Crystal Eth” is what I tell my neighbors.

I’m getting tired of people telling me I’ll brew them a batch if they buy me the “ingredients”. I say make your own effing beer!

Follow that with a simple, “I’m not sure you realize how much time and effort was put into what you are drinking right now.” I’ll bet you won’t get many more of those demands!  :wink:

Same here.  Everybody wants me to bring them beer that I made.  Like Charlie says in the Zymurgy ad, “This is my beer - make your own.”
Another thing that seems clueless to me is how many people see my brewery and call it a still.
And while we’re on the subject, do you ever get tired of the question, “What is your favorite beer?”

We should start another thread just for curmudgeons like me.

^^THIS^^.  My experience to a T.

I like when people pay for my ingredients to brew them a beer.  I enjoy brewing so much I brew more than I can drink anyways… so whenever I am ‘funded’ to brew it’s a bonus brew day for me. lol

Fixed that for both of us!

I always have a “student” these days.  They pay for half the ingredients and do all the labor, and in return they get half the beer(5 gallons).  But when people ask me to brew something I tell them they can spend the day brewing with me, and I brew sober, so they lose interest fast.

Another good way to make people lose interest in helping is starting your brew day at 5:30AM on Friday.  8) The ones that show up at 5:30 are actually interested in learning though.
