From Store-Bought Beer to Neighborhood Brewing Legend
Hi, I'm Mike Thompson, certified Master Brewer. Five years ago, I was just another dad buying overpriced craft beer at the store, spending $200+ monthly on mediocre brews while my buddies bragged about their "expensive taste."
The wake-up call came during our annual neighborhood BBQ. My neighbor Jim brought a homebrew that had everyone raving - smooth, complex, and better than anything I'd bought. When he mentioned it cost him $18 to make FIVE GALLONS (that's $1.44 per bottle!), I felt like a fool.
The Discovery That Changed Everything...
That night, I dove deep into brewing research. As someone who'd worked in commercial breweries for 15 years, I knew quality beer when I tasted it. But I was shocked to discover how simple the process really was - and how the industry keeps dads overpaying for what they could easily make at home.
That's when I developed what I now call the "Weekend Warrior Brewing System" - a streamlined process that busy dads can master in their garage, producing restaurant-quality craft beer for a fraction of retail cost. Now I help other fathers escape the expensive beer trap I was stuck in.
