kitchen table brewer in Port Elgin

Post by storm beers » Mon Mar 16, 2015 11:12 pm

Hi everyone
I just stumbled onto this forum yesterday, and am amazed that there are so many home brewers nearby!
I've been extract brewing and making fruit wines and ciders for the past few years, but bottled my first all grain batch last week. I'd really like to get together with other brewers to swap beers, get some feed back and tips, and check out other people's set-ups.
Let's relax and have a home brew!

Welcome. Lots of info here and our doors are welcome if you want to sit in. I've never seen anyone say no. As for the swaps that's frequent enough. We recently had a rye beer exchange earlier in March.

"Twenty years ago — a time, by the way, that hops such as Simcoe and Citra were already being developed, but weren’t about to find immediate popularity — there wasn’t a brewer on earth who would have gone to the annual Hop Growers of American convention and said, “I’m going to have a beer that we make 4,000 barrels of, one time a year. It flies off the shelf at damn near $20 a six-pack, and you know what it smells like? It smells like your cat ate your weed and then pissed in the Christmas tree.” - Bell’s Brewery Director of Operations John Mallet on the scent of their popular Hopslam.
