>>2564242Right on. Here's my thinking:
Cans of beer add a bunch of weight on the first day of a hike but like magic your pack weighs two pounds less on the second day. If I can't carry a couple extra pounds the first day I'm in bad shape.
Beer is hydrating. If the first night is a dry camp you'd have to bring water anyway, so might as well bring beer.
Beer has calories. Instead of eating a sugary snack, drink beer.
Beer requires no mixer. Yes I know spirits technically don't require a mixer but even good bourbon likes a splash of spring water.
I have a question for you. When you distill wine, what percentage is heads and tails? I've done a few runs of corn liquor and had enough trouble that I'd like to do a wine distill.
