Satisfaction

"One clever poet painted a colorful, though not too inaccurate, picture of the typical Prohibition-era household:

Mother's in the kitchen, washing out the jugs;
Sister's in the pantry, bottling the suds;
Father's in the cellar, mixing up the hops;
Johnny's on the porch, watching for the cops.

 From All About Beer by Carl H. Miller (We Want Beer: Prohibition And The Will To Imbibe - Part 1.)

As the number of brews increased I found myself mostly kegging alone at night.
