I suspected you were a home brewer. Can't seem to find the time to brew anymore, but I was doing all grain beers in 10-12 gallon batches for many years.
I suppose I was trying to sucker you into a discussion about quality in beer. IMHO, if it's an all malt beer (or fitting for the beer style), balanced (or fitting for the beer style), and free from defects, the argument about quality is specious. Though Becks is mass produced, it would be difficult to say it is of inferior quality to an expensive Belgian ale. Liquor is another story, however.
I thought being a brewmaster at a microbrewery would be a dream job, but maybe that of beer judge would be better. How's it pay?
