Hello all, first post but I feel it is important. Myself and a buddy are in the process of setting up a homebrew supply company with website. We are currently compiling a stocklist. We think we have alot of the needs covered for beer supplies. We would appreciate any input from the forum as to what ye would want to see available from the site. In particular the different types of grains. All inputs greatfully appreciated.

Welcome Bugno

Good luck with the business venture <!-- s:D --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_biggrin.gif" alt="" title="Very Happy" /><!-- s:D -->

Hi Bugno, and welcome to ICB! <!-- s:) --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_smile.gif" alt="" title="Smile" /><!-- s:) -->

Interesting times for brewers in Ireland it seems! I'd love to know what made you and your buddy take the plunge <!-- s:) --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_smile.gif" alt="" title="Smile" /><!-- s:) -->

Best of luck with the venture, and you know you have a good potential client base and and source of customer feedback here.

Welcome to the site Bungo.

If you need feedback, or somewhere to make announcements, this is the place for you.

Looking forward to seeing your stock list.

Welcome and best of luck with the venture.

Good luck with this, very exciting times I imagine.

It seems a few UK stores supply particular products that can all be found in the Northern Brewer website.
Perhaps they've developed a working relationship with these guys and have worked out a supplier/distributing deal with them. Anyways, NB is a great indication of whats available on the market and is a great resource for both brewers and winemakers.

On a personnal level, I'd like to see more Lalvin wine yeats available.

You wouldn't have recently found yourself with a mountain of used Coca Cola Cornelius kegs recently, would you?!
