MidWest/Groupon deal on basic starter kit.

**TheKeg81** · 02-02-2012, 05:16 PM

$64 for basic kit, choice of ingredients (red, stout, or amber), and other stuff. Will run about $76 after shippping. Considering I paid >$30 more than that for one (glass carboy, no plastic fermenter and no beer) locally, it seems to be pretty sweet deal.

Yeah this is a great deal, I wish I'd seen this when I first started out. Even without the certificate its awesome, but with that it is amazing.

Definitely a great deal - it's what got me in to brewing. I bought mine 7 months ago and haven't looked back!

Good stuff, good price... Still using it 1 year later plus. Get their Red Hook ESB clone with the gift certificate. You'll thank me later.
