New to the Brew-Fort Bragg NC

reubadoob · Nov 4, 2010

Hi my name is Reuben at Fort Bragg, NC. Just started my first 2 brews of 1gallon each of hard cider and hard cider with cinnamon. Would like to meet some other brewers in the area, so send me a PM. Any advise on brewing, stores or other local suggestions let me know. Glad to be a part of community.

Welcome! There are quite a few of us living near Ft Bragg on the forum.

So far as brewing goes, you just missed a (sort of) local GRABASS event this past weekend.

If you're looking for homebrew stores, I wish you luck. Locally, there's not a lot going on. There's a few in the Triangle, though. And there's quite a few good beer stores here and there.

I recommend you look for Mother Earth Brewing's beer. Not bad at all! They're out of Kinston, NC. There are a few other brewers in the Triangle and surrounding regions.

Unlucky, I missed out. I'll have to check out Mother Earth. If there's any brewer's around the Fayetteville area I'd like to see their set-ups to get some ideas.

Just keep an eye on the boards in the Local Gatherings section.

I think we're planning to plan something in Jan.
