I love all the neat brewing products that are getting pitched on Kickstarter. This one... not so much. It just popped up in my Facebook feed. It is essentially just brew in a bottle, except that there's an unnecessary step where you can contaminate your beer by mixing your own ingredients. Oh, and it's in a big can. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/18 ... ew-customi" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
(I suppose that some people might like the ability to 'customize' their beers, but all they're going to be doing is mixing extracts into a bottle with malt extract.)

"Twenty years ago — a time, by the way, that hops such as Simcoe and Citra were already being developed, but weren’t about to find immediate popularity — there wasn’t a brewer on earth who would have gone to the annual Hop Growers of American convention and said, “I’m going to have a beer that we make 4,000 barrels of, one time a year. It flies off the shelf at damn near $20 a six-pack, and you know what it smells like? It smells like your cat ate your weed and then pissed in the Christmas tree.” - Bell’s Brewery Director of Operations John Mallet on the scent of their popular Hopslam.

Re: This Makes Zero Sense
With the beer barrel system I would be worried about contamination issues, not to mention bad beer.
