Instant Gratification...

Number one question asked by anyone who finds out I am a homebrewer:

"How long does it take to make?"

They typically think it takes a month. Sure, some brews need to condition for month(s), but there are recipes for "6-day ales". I brewed one up Sunday I call "Instant Gratification". It's a mild cream-style ale that takes a few days to ferment, a few to condition, and then it's ready to drink. Yes, you can brew beer that is read to consume in ONE WEEK! I hope it's tasty, because it's going to be tough to keep the taps full during football season...
