I got sick. My distal ureter shriveled up and created a reflux so my kidney absorbed without draining for over 2 years they think. Now my ureter is stainless. Doc recommended I drink beer, says it helps with the urinary tract. I guess it helps keep the system clean, helps avoid stones and he says the carbonation helps with the pain , which unfortunately is a daily occurrence now. So, I went to my basement to break out my brew stuff and surprise, right next to my cases of bottles and under my mash tun and still, a bucket of gold. Imagine my surprise. Thanks for all the suggestions, I will put them to good use
