With only two of them drinking the cider, the kegs weren't being emptied fast enough. They began to share the cider with family and friends, but that was still not putting a dent in the backlog. With an abundance of cider waiting to be kegged, they began inviting their neighbors to grab a glass whenever they wanted one. Eventually, word spread and more people began talking about their creations.
