I just want to drink the beer concentrate!

We've been joking about this for years, How cool that someone is actually doing it!

Cool concept, but seems like a lot of work...I think I would opt to just carry a growler of home brew for speedy enjoyment of that frosty beverage. what say you, AKT?

I think it is easier and more practical to just drink Bourbon.

These guys obviously don't have a Maule and a grocery store... Kinda fun though to carbonate on the spot.

Kevbert... without the CO^2 I have a feeling that concentrate is gak

Everclear and Kool Aid probably packs more buzzes per ounce and a lot easier to mix!

Wait... I'd have to work for my beer?!

Holy crap.... who in their right mind would go to all that WORK... to carbonate some stale beer out in the wild. Just bring a damn beer with you. What is that guy thinking !?!?!?!?

People like me who really shouldn't carry a 60lb pack partly because it has a few beers in it. Intriguing idea. I wonder how they concentrate it?

You know, diluted everclear really doesn't taste as much like vodka as one might think.

Exceptional wisdom here. Van Winkle. All you need is one. Or so I'm told.

Wait 3 minutes for a beer No way.

I'm not interested until they discover backcountry ice.

One reason I like to camp by a stream, at least the beer can be kept somewhat cool.

Hahaha...that's just what I was thinking, but during the winter there's lot of that around anyway.

I think the backcountry beer is a grand idea, especially for a climber or backcountry skier, but even with my love of flying lawnmowers, it'll still be a cold day in hell before there is no room for a 6-pack.

In the backcountry we call it snow.

That reminds me of a joke,

Why do the English drink warm Beer?........Because they have Lucas refrigerators!

bourbon.

Yeah, I think it definitely makes more sense for the backpacker crowd (of which I am one). I remember one trip involving 9 pounds of wine in my already heavy backpack, and there were no bottles involved. But for flying? Yeah, no.
