Backcountry Beer?

[2stix]

Someone in colorado want to try this out and report back? http://www.patsbcb.com
Seems like an awesome idea.

I'm curious on this as well. Ideal for backpacking & multi-day bc skiing trips.

I've never had the opportunity to try it but know several folks who have and they reported that it wasn't bad at all.

I am gonna wait for the movie.

Next will be Dogfishhead back country blend of liquid hop extracts complete with mini Randall.

Tang is to OJ as BC beer is to beer.

I have a few free samples that I'm not going to use. PM me if you want to pass by my house in Littleton and pick them up.

Back country beer equals scotch.

Haha, for sure, me I like a good dark spiced rum.

I had seen the carbonator bottle earlier this year and thought it was kind of neat, but I can live without it. But since they started brewing concentrated beer, that can be carbonated later when you want to drink it, seemed like a good use for the product.

Apparently, the bottle, 4 carbonizer blend packages and 4 beer concentrates are equal in weight to one can of beer and all pack into the one water bottle. It seems to raise a very intriguing option once in a while.

Not sure If many have taken the time to look at the whole idea package or not, but I like where it is going. So first hand experience would be cool, cause to get it to me in Calgary, would take some expense, and I'd like to have some real world opinions from those that have tried it.

Brew Concentrate
Craft quality brew concentrate

Beer is typically about 95% water, which makes it heavy, cumbersome, and expensive to transport. But with our innovative and modern brewing process (patent pending) we can create a nearly waterless concentrate that contains all the great flavor, alcohol, and aroma of a premium quality micro brew.

Unlike other concentrate processes, this is not just about making the beer and then “removing” the water afterwards (which is extremely energy inefficient). Instead, our process (patent pending) allows us to start with almost no water, and carefully control the environment of the fermentation. The result… a concentrated brew with all the same great taste you’re used to in a premium micro brew. All you do is add water, carbonate, and enjoy.

So if you hust eat the concentrate gel or whatever that shit is, without adding the water, will you get loaded without all the extra work?

Those packets sorta look like energy gel packets for winos.

Keen eye, many gel energy packets are in reality filled with liquid malt extract used to also make beer.

Interesting idea but it seems like a solution searching for a problem. Liquor is quicker.
