Home Brew Mart News Letter – December 2, 1998

Wednesday, December 2nd, 1998

Some of you probably feel ripped off by my last e-mail as the recipes were identical to the previous e-mail. I figured some one would not rewrite the recipes on our in store chalk board without changing them. I guess it is because of my horrible handwriting.

Enough with the apology here are some brand new recipes followed by the new product info. By the way tell your friends that brew kits make great holiday gifts and gift certificates are great too!

Some of the new things around here include our barley wine on tap at the tasting bar! It is one year old and has been dry-hopped for your enjoyment. Speaking of big beers the STRONG ALE FEST will be this weekend at Pizza Port in Carlsbad. It will feature more than 20 ales over 8% alcohol by volume. There will be both local breweries as well as guest breweries such as Sierra Nevada, Rogue, Left-hand, Hair of the Dog, Oasis and more. When: Saturday and Sunday, December 5 th and 6 th from 11:00 am – 11:00 p.m.

Where: Pizza Port Carlsbad at 571 Carlsbad Village Dr. How Much: $5 to get in which pays for the sampler glass then it will cost around a buck a taste. Since I never got an email from Pizza Port about the fest I was unsure about the cost of the taster. You can call them for more info (760) 720-7007

We have charcoal water filters that filter the water straight from the tap to your brew pot. This device can be easily attached and detached from your sink or hose and filtered directly into your brewpot. It makes an amazing difference as it removes chlorine, chlorophenols, rust and chunky organic matter. It will not, however, render your water sterile. This product is great for all-grain brewers who want the ease of tap with the taste of bottled water at pennies per gallon.

We just got in some pin lock style kegs also known as coke style kegs. We have about 10 so get them while they are here.

Make siphoning easy with auto siphon … back in stock! We now have a few cases of cobalt blue 12 oz. Beer bottles and 1 liter grolsch style beer bottles as well as the popular 16 oz. Ez cap grolsch style bottles.

The new Celebrator is in … get it while it lasts

That’s it for now see ya in a week or two.
