Hi from BigDave

[Bigdave1701]

Hello all,

Just a quick intro from me. I used to brew AG many many years ago (circa 2012) but had to give the hobby up due to a small family and overbearing wife. Fast forward 13 years, the kids are no longer small and that wife isn't my problem anymore.

My health has been on a decline for a while now to the point that I had to give up work last May. With all this spare time on my hands, I've been looking for a hobby and my new wife has suggested that I should see if my interest for brewing is still there. I've forgotten almost everything I knew about brewing so you'll have to bear with me whilst I remember what's what. But in the mean time, It'd be great if anyone could recommend suppliers of equipment, hops, grain etc..

Many Thanks

Dave :)

I don’t believe so. There used to be one ran by an older gentleman. But he must have retired as last time I drove past it was a hairdressers.

A Google search suggests B&M or The Range.

The Rang do decent kits but choice is limited.
