I've lurked here on and off for a while and have done a few AG brews with modest success. : Now I'm about to relocate to the USA and I'm flogging my kit off, most of it. Ah well, you can still get beer there.

 

[pittsy]

hello and it would seem goodbye , but you can still log on over there too and brew of course :pray:

 

[phettebs]

Yes, we do have internet here :grin: and a LOT of homebrew shops. Gear is pretty easy to get as well.

What part of the US are you heading to?

 

[t0m]

Philadelphia and its numerous Irish pubs :thumb:

 

[phettebs]

You should be back up and brewing in no time then.

I would take it with you if you can. I used to live over there and did HB. Most of the beer over there is ****. Unless your into Coors, Bud, Miller Light etc.

 

[phettebs]

I would argue that you didn't look very hard then Bob.

 

[t0m]

Yes there's an enormous variety of good beer in the USA now.

 

[RokDok]

Don't take any brew kit at all.
There's fantastic kit in the States.
Bring it back if and when you return.

Love your yeast stirrer BTW.

But why buy it again when you already have it? Unless space/shipping is a problem? As for beer I lived in north Florida, and never found a decent beer. Which probably explained the availability of HB supplies. The only exception was a bar in St Augustine, but in general the supermarkets only stocked pap. But that was 15 years ago and things have probably changes a bit.

15 years ago, the craft (good beer) scene here was pretty young so it doesn't surprise me that it was hard to find a good beer then. North Florida is very "rural" too so that didn't help any I can imagine. The beer selection here now is very nice. It's easy to find really good beers all over.
