Tell Me Something Good: An Interesting Concept Is Brewing In This Old Folks Home

The coronavirus pandemic is hard on everyone for all different reasons. But especially for seniors living in old folks’ homes around the country. Mostly because a lot of them can’t have visitors and are bored just sitting there in the facility every day.

This one assisted living home in Austin, TX has decided to keep their residents busy by teaching them how to brew beer! Usually home brewers are bored dads in their 30s and 40s trying to brew the perfect beer in their garage or basement. But for these residents this is actually the PERFECT activity for them. It takes a lot of time, requires you to use your mind, it’s fun, and you get the satisfaction at the end that you created something.

I wonder what kinds of beer they are brewing? Stouts maybe? Lagers? They don’t really seem like the IPA type.
