Hi all! Just moved from Saskatchewan. I have about 40 brews to date. All grain. Looking forward to coming out to the brew meetings and meeting fellow beer enthusiasts. My wife and two kids flew here last week. Our moving truck is about 2 weeks behind us. So I'm without my brewery and keezer for a bit. So far I'm enjoying 9 locks and Garrison. In Saskatchewan I had easy access to Canadian 2 row 55lbs cost me about $32. Where can I get my CO2 tank filled and other base grains in Dartmouth or area? How's the water here? Do you guys filter? I like IPA's I usually didn't treat the water in Saskatoon unless making a light beer. Can't wait to get some wort in the fermenters. Cheers!

Welcome. Lots of great information on the stickies at the top of most sub fourms. Everwood ave brewshop, Maritime wine and spirits, and Noble grape are all great spots to get ingredients although we also do group buys to keep our costs down. Water here is very soft, you can find the report online at Halifax waters website. Lots of great IPA's around these parts now but king of the hill for those is Unfiltered Brewing.

Maritime Wine and Beer may be easier to find.
