My local homebrewer store offers classes at $10/hr so figure for $50/hr you could trivially make an arrangement. Something "uber"-ish where you rent a non-store employee's time would be interesting. May as well have the rented brewer provide his own worm (do they still call them that? The giant copper cooling coil to bring the wort from steep to room temp in an instant using a garden hose?) and other bulky expensive one time only stuff.
I was "drafted" to help some friends on their first beer brew because they knew I was a wine maker, everything went well other than beer is more complicated than I like. Also some winemaker weirdness/hangups about oxidation falls on deaf ears when you drink the stuff mere weeks later, so that was a little weird. Someone who actually knows how to brew could probably make some money if there was only a way to organize the process of match making wanna be beer brewers with real experienced beer brewers.
It would be nice and difficult to background check the contractors and verify their skills (both brewing skills and some minimal level of customer service), and scheduling and billing and customer sat tracking... Sounds like a perfect startup opportunity! Of course, long term growth might be a bit limited compared to "disrupt taxis" or whatever.
That's a pretty good idea. The actual mechanics of brewing beer are exacting and tedious, but have little room for creativity. The most creative part of the endeavor is the recipe.
In fact, many commercial microbrews are partly or wholly made by contract brewers, so this already exists at a larger scale.
The downside is the legal red tape for anything involving alcohol, particularly anything interstate.
