As the cruel month of Febrewary melts away with the dirt-encrusted snow banks, the prospect of Spring wafts in the wind like the sweet smell of Maibock brewing� Hop Rhizome Pre-Orders: It�s time to think about your Spring Planting, and putting in your own hops is just one way to maximize that garden plot. We�ll have a good supply of rhizomes available but to ensure yours, preorder and prepayment is appreciated (required). They will sell out! We can recommend ones that are more suited to our climate, and thus be more successful. If you�d like to be informed as to type, availability, and arrival, send us an email with "Hop Rhizome Pre-Order" as the subject line, and we�ll keep you in the loop. New Hop Varieties are arriving - brew with something different for a change! Prices are lower than they have been recently so those big IPA recipes won�t break the budget anymore! Lower prices on grains too! If you�ve been thinking about it, now�s a great time to switch to all-grain. Check out the new Weyermann malts now available: Cara Belge, Cara Bohemian and Abbey Malt. Bulk German base malts are very attractively priced! www.weyermann.de The first 2010 Special Selections Wine Kits from Spagnol�s are in, and they are Argentinean Malbec/Syrah (red) and German Ehrenselser (white). Seasonal Wyeasts are in: PACMAN is back! There is also a Thames Valley II, and Belgian Schelde yeast. And the versatile Denny's Fav 50 (#1450), French Saison and Roeselare are now available year round. www.wyeastlab.com Philly Beer Mini-Week(end) (Because we just can�t wait until June) Here are just a few highlights: March 13: the 20th Anniversary of the Michael Jackson Tastings at the University Museum w/Randy Mosher March 14: The Brewer�s Plate at the University Museum March 21: The Real Ale Festival at Yards. www.yardsbrewing.com For more info, www.phillybeerweek.org AHA NHC is Coming!

What are your favorite beers? Victory? Yards? Flying Fish? Dogfish Head? George Hummel & Nancy Rigberg have been award-winning writers, speakers and homebrewers since 1986 -- before any of those breweries were even open! Their list of writing credits include Beer Philadelphia, Ale Street News, BarleyCorn, Mid-Atlantic Brewing News, New Brewer and more. They host numerous beer tastings and seminars, including the annual Split Rock Lodge beer festival. They've been guests on Beer Philadelphia Radio, and featured on the cover of "Mother Earth Magazine". They make their home in the Brewerytown section of Philadelphia, on the grounds of a defunct brewery that at its height in 1913, turned out nearly 200,000 barrels of lager. At the turn of the 20th Century, there were neary 100 active breweries in Philadelphia.

Welcome to the world of brewing!

To make your first five gallons of beer, you will need one of our (a) Equipment Kits and one of our (b) preassembled Ingredient Packages.

(a) Beginner's Equipment Kit comes with recipe and instructions, and includes:

GLASS CARBOY UPGRADE (ADD $20.00 to the Equipment Kit above and $5.00 additional packing charge.)
5 Gallon Glass Carboy (replaces one of the buckets), with gum stopper and blow-off hose.

Ask about our Affordable All-Glass Fermentation option.
Or Are you ready for the ULTIMATE KIT? Just ask!

(b) Beginner's Ingredient Packages includes all the ingredients that you will need to produce 5 gallons of an all malt, world class beer.

To get you started, we've prepared several different ingredient packages. You get malt, brewing yeast, priming sugar and hops -- all pre-measured and easy to use.
WE WILL WORK WITH YOU TO DEVELOP YOUR OWN RECIPES FOR SUBSEQUENT BATCHES. (Be prepared to articulate the type of beer you may be looking for.)

One of our Equipment Kits coupled with an Ingredient Package will provide all you will need, except for some common household items (pot, spoon, bleach) and about two cases of non-twistoff empty beer bottles. How many hobbies can you start for well under a hundred bucks?!

If you're still unsure about brewing beer, send us $5.00 and we'll send you a copy of the Brewing Handbook along with our Award Winning Beer Recipe for you to review, postpaid. Of course, if at any time you have any questions about your kit, brewing in general, or if you wish to order more supplies, just call us at 215-569-9469.
