I Am a Home Brewer

Inspired by, and in tribute to, the "I am a Craft Brewer" video shown at the 2009 Craft Brewers Conference. This is dedicated to all of the men and women who comprise the American Craft Brewing Movement and to the countless others who comprise the Home Brewing Movement.

Nice job fellas! I hope this video will inspire some to take up the hobby, or at least seek out some good homebrew to drink. It really is amazing that the quality of homebrew often meets and exceeds that of even the best microbreweries.

This project started out initially as a thread devoted to the IAACB video on homebrewtalk & morphed into what you witness here.

We undertook this project opening it up to the brewing public, anyone/everyone that happened upon the project.

That said, of an initial group approaching 50 people that wanted to participate, we only received 22 actual submissions.

The wonderful, creative, & dedicated brewers of homebrewtalk conceived & then completed this homage to great beer and the IAACB video.

My dad used to make homebrewed beer in 55 gallon drums on the farm for our harvest festival. He added this and that until he had something the farmhands would not spit out. We put thick garbage bags in the drums laid a piece of plastic over the top then covered them. They sat on raised shelve stands and we used a manual marine hand pump fill the mugs. No refrigeration but damn was that stuff good. Sometimes my dad added a little agave juice to spice things up a little. Whoa! Those were the days

The guy in the t-shirt and blazer who says he's "socially conscious about beer" (lol) is pretty white as well.

It's a tossup to find the whitest person in this video, but I'm going to have to declare a tie between the neckbeard at 0:31 or the guy who used a sharpie to write "I MAKE MY OWN BEER" on a white t-shirt.

I put beer in my cornflakes.

I put beer in my rice krispies.

I'm a pisshead.

All joking apart though. If the goverment continues to kill off every brewer that isn't a multi media mafia McPopsi, this will be the only way to get good beer. So if you don't brew your own, make friends with someone that does.

I used to be a craft brewer. Just bought my first keggle home brew system. Now... I am a home brewer.
