How old were you when you opened your brewery?

Title says it all... Just curious, for those of you who have opened your own brewery, how old were you when you took the plunge?

Thanks for the replies, guys...(Major, I remember you from the B3 forums, nice to see you around!)

I hope to one day join your ranks, although it's probably a pipe dream. It's fun to daydream about anyways.

Beer is like porn. You can buy it, but it's more fun to make your own.

I was 56; recently retired and got suckered into it. But you know what, I wouldn’t have it any other way.

This is a good thread. I'm 44 and still have these silly ideas in my head. It looks like my age isn't a good reason to drop them.
