I'm a terrible beer maker, but I'm more than willing to submit myself as your taste tester. I know there may be some risk involved with such a duty, but by God, its a risk I am willing to take! So you just go ahead and send me a case or two and I'll be sure to let you know how good your product is. Deal? Cheers! ~Laura ;D lol
