Accidentally Drunk Homebrewing Stories

[u/rygregor]

Share a story of when you accidentally got drunk while home brewing. Today I needed to clean out my serving kegs to prepare for packaging two new beers tomorrow. One keg had several glasses of delicious Schwartzbier left in it, so naturally I filled up multiple glasses to drink while cleaning my kegs and doing house chores. By the time I finished I realized I was accidentally a little drunk when I was fumbling my tooth paste trying to brush my teeth. So here I am chilling on Reddit on a Tuesday night!😂

Not me but my stepmom. My dad and I were packaging a cider in the kitchen and wanted to back sweeten and add some cinnamon and apple pie spice. We pour a little, doctor it up, try it, and then pass the glass to my step mom and her friend who were chatting at the dinning table. Rinse and repeat a few times while we are trying to get the balance of sweetness and spices just right. Finally find a mix we are happy with and package the rest of the cider. A few minutes later, my step mom says she's feeling a little off and is going to go lay down.

Turns out they were just polishing off all the extra cider we passed them and didn't realize they were both drunk at like 2pm. She napped for the rest of the day lol
