Hops and Barley

I was a brewer before I came to law school. Brewing is hard and messy work but it's really rewarding as long as the government stays out of your business. Every time I see something like this I get a little wistful. Sure I'll be making a good living and won't have to scrub trub out of the bottom of a kettle, but I miss standing over my mashtun, paddle in hand, and smelling the starch conversion and roasty malt aroma.
I could go on with a piece by piece critique of the equipment and how I'd modify it, but probably no one but me cares.
