I think my son wants to put his microbrew beers in this, can it be used for this?

it could work, but there would be a lot of empty space near the back of the fridge considering its not deep for two bottles of beer, its really just deep for one bottle of wine. But you could make it work for microbrews....

i would not use it to bottle beer. i don't feel the seal on the top is permanent enough for the storage of beer over any period of time. mw

It definitely can be used without the beer can. The can doesn't really add any support, just a robust flavor, depending on the beer used.

I converted a freezer to a beer fermentation cooler with it. I don't see why you couldn't.

Not sure, it's a good idea if it fits, I'd just attach a straw and sip on the beer! ;)

i don't think so. My spouse is the beer brewer but it is a very specific recipe. The cans of malt are syrupy and i don't think you could ever measure the stuff out and get it right. Ya gotta stay with the recipe as it is or go to a brew store near you and have them make you a mix. And if you buy one of those 5 gallon fermenters, get plastic not glass. we don't usually break things but we broke that and the plastic has worked well. hope this helps.

It may be able to. I've used it to ferment beer (primary fermentation) with no adverse effects on taste. They weren't gas-tight, so I might worry about leaks.

If your sons homebrew, they are probably making styles that do not need to be served ice cold. This product is designed more for light lagers, like budweiser, or the Mexican imports, like Corona.(Also, I would say that your sons should probably be pouring their beer into a proper glass, but that might make me look like a snob...)

I wouldn't use it for that applications. I would think it would be too small. I use it as a funnel for bottling in small mouth jars

Sure it could be if you concocted one yourself. Don't know if they offer one as an option, but it is not included. It is tall enough to handle beer can chicken tho!!!

This kit can be used for pretty much any fermentation you want to try. I've done my own ale recipes, wine coolers, and many kits. Think of this product as a box of kitchens supplies and you can use them create anything you can think up.

I dont think it'd seal tight enough like a growler to keep it "fresh" as when you buy the beer. You may feel free to try it but i honestly think you'll have flat beer til you finish it!

We are using it for sodas, beer and water. So I can't answer the question regarding wine

We drink Sam Adams and they fit great. You do have to drink a little before putting them in so your beer doesn't over flow. If you can compare your brands to Sam Adams bottles they should be fine.

No good, top has a curve in it from front to back, and grooves to drain the water. You might be able to stand a beer right in the middle, but I would be very careful. Hope this helps.

This is simply just a mechanism to keep the beer cold. It does come with supplies to be able to use Heineken mini-kegs, but we have not tried it out yet. We have only used mini-kegs that have the plastic spout (I think those are called gravity fed? not sure on the term). The cooler has a little clear window towards the bottom that the spout sticks out of.

You could, the nozzles are close together so I just brew into the same cup. If you have small cups it could work.
