Hello from MN!

[Zemillard90]

Hello all! Been lurking on here for a long time and decided to start contributing, learned a lot of what I know on these forums!

Been brewing for 5 years, a friend was doing it and I jumped right into all grain and haven't looked back. Opened a small brewry, sold said brewery, have really loved every minute. About 80 batches in and always looking to improve.

Thanks for the welcome! Cheers!

I didn't realize they had closed the store. Last I heard they were just limiting how many people could be in the store. I did my last order online. I sure do prefer to go to the store and get my liquid yeast rather than through the mail.

 

[Zemillard90]

Yeah, and they just stopped free shipping too.. :/

Wish they would at least do curbside pickup. The Milwaukee store is.

Having both Midwest and NB stores closed has me bummed out too. I need a case of bottles and don't want to pay for shipping

Yeah, they're my go-to as well. From MN here too, and generally get next day shipping from them.

Welcome to the forum, good peeps and good info here

I did hear Rebel Brewer in Plymouth is doing curbside. Have never heard of them, but a buddy needed some starsan today and told me about it.

How did I not know about Rebel Brewer? Since Brew and Grow closed I thought Northern/Midwest were the only stores in town.

I had never heard of them either, but seem well-stocked from their website. Prices seem comparable, maybe grain is a bit pricier than NB.
