NEWSGood news - Simpson's Marris Otter Grain NOW IN STOCK!!!!! $16.50/5Kg or $67.50/25KG . Made famous with the Knappstein's Lager. We've put a lager on in anticipation of the hops arrival so we'll be able to post the results soon or come in for a taste. Once again, 'finger on the pulse'. Hop plants back in stock in Oct. Very short window of selling due to the rapid growth of the rhizomes. Second hand grolsch bottles $2.50 each or $2 each per dozen With the recent hiccups behind us now, all is great at 222 Liverpool St. The walls - thanks dad!! - are finished and floors sealed. The corks are back on display. The Christmas tree is back by popular demand - 120 Grolsh bottles later... burp... :-) We are also the only home brew shop on Liverpool St to have the new Citra hop - featured in the new 'Malt Runner' from James Squire - awesome hop!!! Finger on the pulse... Jay is keen to see how the brews are done at the James Squire 'Bounty' in Salamanca so he can finally use all our full mash gear - which was supposed to be up and running by now - sorry. UPCOMING EVENT As you are involved in the world of brewing and beer we would love to invite you along to the launch of Willie Simpson’s new book The Australian Beer Companion – Your Guide to Australia’s Top Breweries and Microbreweries at Fullers Bookshop on Sunday, August 16, at 2pm. Willie is well known in beer circles far and wide – and is the owner and brewer at Seven Sheds Brewery in North West Tasmania. He has been commenting on the amber nectar for more than twenty years. Willie has travelled the country, sampling and interviewing, to create a comprehensive beer guide as a homage to our nation of vibrant beer making and drinking. More than 100 breweries are featured in the book including a number of Tasmanian microbreweries including Iron House Brewery, Wineglass Bay Brewing, Two MetresTall, Taverners and Moo Brew. This event is one of the last to be hosted in the current Fullers’ premises as we excitedly prepare to move to a larger space at 131 Collins Street. It will be of particular interest to anyone who may enjoy an occasional foray into the world of beer. 22/05/09 Keep an eye out for the newly formed Rum Club at the New Sydney, Bathurst St Hobart!!! Click on the tab on the left - I dare you!!! :-) 27/09/08 We have some hop plants and rhubarb plants for sale. Hops $10-$15 and rhubarb $5. 22/10/07 Willie Simpson's new book "Home brew" is
out. An interesting look into his brewing career and the pages are packed

It also caters for the nervous novice brewer, the semi confident intermediate
brewer and the passionate full mash brewer. There are lots of tried and
true recipes to wet your appetite. 20/05/07 Amanda Conrad B.App.Sc. is now brewing Gillespie's Ginger beer!!! Took the plunge from brewing 50L to 1700L in one big stride.
