Any word on if we'll be able to squeak in a club discount and if so how much?
Will the store have a website with inventory and pricing? I'm so excited to have a local alternative to Steinswindlers!

We will offer Brewcommune members a 10% discount on our already low prices.
The website is coming soon. As soon as the "soft" opening is done, we can work on beefing up inventory, and then we will start working on a website with online ordering where you can have it shipped or pick it up in the store. You should also be able to get a discount through the site.
Our soft opening is Friday so come on down and check things out. If we don't have what you want, please let us know so we can get it in stock.
Brief hijack of this thread ... feel free to move as necessary.
Hey Kevin:
If / when we organize our next group buy, will we be able to organize it through Bruery Provisions? Perhaps we could find a way to support both the interest of the club and Bruery Provisions. I don't know about the rest of the club, but it won't be long before I'm out of base malt.

I was going to move it but it is good info for the thread. Actual requests for a group buy should be in the Club Only forums but since this is a vault off the discount inquiry I'm leaving it.....
Please don't post further responses to the group buy portion of this thread but start a new thread in Club Only Cheers.
Well, good news. I bottled my American Amber Ale last night, and it looked & smelled just fine. <whew!>
Althought I usually sample the beer at the end of bottling, I was rushing due to a small leak in my bottling pail. I did not get a chance to sip and know for sure. BUT, it looked & smelled completely normal (& delicious!)
I'll give a taste in a few weeks, and see how it does. Meanwhile, I am planning a recipe for this Memorial Day weekend. I have some left-over specialty grain from this recipe, so I'll proably do something similar but a slightly different focus.

An excellent idea and I picked up a plastic one at Lowes the day before AG#2 brewday! Here it is 'in-use'.

Oh, and I decided to make a yeast starter from this batch for my American Pale Ale (AG#2). So, I drank 2/3 a bottle of this young ale and was really pleased! It was young but tasty!
Many thanks!
