homebrew supply's ?

[fatboy]

fella's anyone know where to buy the ingredents for making a batch of home brew beer ? Bought the wife a nice kit two years ago and we have never made a batch yet. We live downriver. And what would be a good beer to make if I can find the stuff. Thanks for any help !

I don't know of any places near Downriver, but there are a couple stores in Ann Arbor that have just about everything. Merchant of Vino on Plymouth has a lot, but Big Ten Beverage House on Packard has a lot more. They even have fresh hops.

For a beginner, its best to buy a can or two of flavored malt and follow the instructions. Most come with packets of yeast. Unless you know what you are doing, use the yeast that comes with the malt. Pales, Wheats, Ambers and the like are good for beginers.

Don't try any Barley Wines or Russian Imperial Stouts until you get the hang of it.
