Would you still Homebrew if you won $58 000 000?

You bet, but somewhere along the way I'd have to buy a new house with my own bar, billiards & brewing room.

If I win the next big draw I'll give at least $1000 to the site :lol:

I'm wrapped it didn't go off. I forgot to buy a ticket and all the suckers that did just helped to boost it for me next draw :mrgreen:

Ohhh I'm going to SO MANY plastic fermenters :lol:

I'm not wrapped, but I'm rapped, as in enraptured. :D

Never mind the plastic fermenters. Nothing less than stainless steel conicals for me.

And there might just be enough change to fit out a room as a typical small English Pub. :mrgreen:

NAh I plan on getting a 600L plastic conical and 30kgs of white sugar per batch to make true home brew on a mass scale Warra LOL

Can you imagine the brewery tour, it would be a fermenter, giant spoon and a giant bubbling air lock :lol:

Winning could be not all the best as it would allow my hobbies to take over 100% of my time and my wife might not be so happy about that :roll:

Yes, it's fun, but at least i could afford Marris Otter malts & more fermenters and such.

Id deffinately keep brewing coz i love beer ( mine mostly :lol: ) and whether or not i had 90,000,000 in the bank or not i would still want to drink good beer, although i gotta say i like warra's idea of setting up a nice little pub or micro, mmmmmmm possibilities would be ALMOST endless, but with my luck i probably wont have to worry about any of this :lol: :lol:

You betcha - I'd brew batches in between trips to Munich, Dublin, Dortmund, California, the Sierra Nevada mountains, you get my drift.... :D

And then I'd start hunting for a modest upgrade to my existing brewstand and locate it under the new pergola in my new house. Something like this will suffice...

A conical fermenter, made out of gold. Nothing too showy or flash.
