Welcome! Good to see some people from Ireland. I haven't been to Ireland in almost 2 years and I really miss it... I want to go back soon.

Hey lads,

I buy off www.thehomebrewcompany.ie who have a flat €7 shipping around Ireland (32counties). Good and quick, should serve you well.

There's also the option of www.thehomebrewcentre.ie but they have a smaller stock.

Ireland is kick ass!!!! I'm proud to be American first, but my grandma told me to remember where we have come from because it was a long and very hard trip! I will make it there someday. Grandma said she would have loved to see her home again but was glad to be here. Welcome, Glad you here!!!

Check us out at Ireland's homebrew store. Up to 30% less on wine, beer, home brew equipment
We ship to Ireland and NI for Euro 7 and our prices are a whole lot less than our competitors (up to 30% cheaper).

Let us know what you think of our site and also the product range we stock. We can stock pretty much anything with a bit of notice.

the only problem is the exchange rate, was down in the Republic last weekend and a pint of beer was 4.60euro, which is $6.26 not sure what the price for a pint is in the stateswhich is £3.88 sterling which is about £1.30 dearer than in Northern Ireland

Sounds like great motivation to homebrew then

 

[peterfuse]

Welcome norn_irn, good to hear from other local brewers. im based in belfast at the minute and use natures way for small item like caps etc, but because i brew allgrain i have to source my ingredients elsewhere.

 

[norn_irn]

i use natures way too, where bouts do you get your grains???

 

[peterfuse]

i used to get my grains from Hop Shop :: Wine Making and Homebrew Kits - Hop Shop UK but since they've put their prices up a bit i've gone to Home Brew Kits, beer kits, wine kits for Beer Making and homebrew Wine Making at HopandGrape.com and try to buy as much grain as i can for the £10 NI delivery, which is up to 28kg.
