just a warning to know that you may kill your passion for this because you suddenly have to do it instead of want to do it. if you keep that in mind, hopefully emotional let down will be minimized.

If your story involved making video games then perhaps it would be a legit comparison. I'd consider yourself lucky to ever have had a passion for making websites. That's the worst programming gig I can think of.
Brewing beer is a whole different ball game and could be more rewarding than it ever was as a hobby. It's taking your passion of making delicious beer for you and you're friends to enjoy, and dedicating your life to fine tuning this craft and give the world access to your delicious product.
