SodaStream Dumbs Down Home Brewing With Beer Bar System
Announced yesterday, the new system appears to be the same as any other SodaStream — except instead of mixing the water with cola (or other flavored) syrup, it's mixed with "beer concentrate."

I'm thinking I can make my own recipe with vodka, malt soda, and hops. From stuff to glass in 15 minutes! :D

Can't I just drink the concentrate? Or freeze it and eat it like ice cream? And it's lactose free!
