Why does my home brewed beer have to be stored in bottles?
It doesn't. There are mini keg systems and keg systems available. The primary reason for putting your home brewed beer into bottles is simple. The smaller serving size allows you to consistantly open a carbonated beer. Cooling the beer causes the yeast to react with the sugar in the beer at a slower rate. As a result, carbon production is inhibited. So if you don't finish that huge serving of beer, the amount of carbon left at subsequent openings will be diminished. Flat beer is like flat soda pop, simply no fun.
