Need a Stocking Stuffer Idea? Try Beer From Concentrate

When we're in the mood for lemonade or peach tea, there are packets of powder available that miraculously transform our bottled water into our drink of choice just by adding a little drink packet and mixing it up.

Is it possible to do that with beer?  The inventions never cease!

There's a company in Alaska called Pat's Backcountry Beverages that's selling packets of beer concentrate.  No kidding!  To mix up the beer you just have to put a carbonation tablet in a bottle of water and add in the beer concentrate.  The Youtube video below demonstrates how the carbonation process happens.

How great would this be for camping trips this summer? Lugging a case through the woods could be a thing of the past! We don't know how it tastes though, so I guess that might be a dealbreaker.

A four pack of the beer packets cost about $9.99, the bottle costs $29.99, and the carbonation tablets are 50 cents each.
