Hey from Kentville
Finally signed up after enjoying the site for a while. I'm a Festa brewer in Kentville, with an eye toward all grain in the next year or so. I have been brewing from kits for about three years. I bottled the first batch and then quickly got set up on kegs. Paul

Re: Hey from Kentville

"Twenty years ago — a time, by the way, that hops such as Simcoe and Citra were already being developed, but weren’t about to find immediate popularity — there wasn’t a brewer on earth who would have gone to the annual Hop Growers of American convention and said, “I’m going to have a beer that we make 4,000 barrels of, one time a year. It flies off the shelf at damn near $20 a six-pack, and you know what it smells like? It smells like your cat ate your weed and then pissed in the Christmas tree.” - Bell’s Brewery Director of Operations John Mallet on the scent of their popular Hopslam.

Re: Hey from Kentville
No events planned as of yet, but I see no reason not to plan some!! HpHunter and myself are planning a brew day together in the future I'm sure that he wouldn't mind someone else coming along to help, and ,or maybe just getting together some night for beers.

Re: Hey from Kentville
Welcome! When the weather is consistently nice, I'm sure a bunch of us city-folk would love to make a visit to the valley, either to the Port Pub, or to someone's place who might be willing to host (or both). A tasting, brewday, or something else.

Re: Hey from Kentville
I would love to have a brew day get together at my place, will be in month or so. We could make 500L batch or so and split it up! Corn boil maybe? I smell a party coming on.

Hey from Kentville
Welcome indeed. Looks like a valley chapter is in its infancy.
