Giday from Halifax

Post by Idlehands » Mon Sep 09, 2013 6:30 pm

Hi brewnosers,

Used to brew beer when I had a big ole house out in the country. In the city now and just brewing kombucha. I hope to find some ginger beer plant locally to make some lovely ginger beer. Anyone know where I might find some?

Cheers!
Maggie

Didn't understand what a ginger beer plant was until I googled it. I don't know anything about them unfortunately.
Regardless, welcome!

There's a place I looked at one time to order then online. I forget the website but it might not be too hard to find.
