Just thought we'd weigh in, as we've been thrown into the mix with Harvey Norman and other WW sellers. Just for the record, we're not a stockist of the WW machine or affiliated with them at all, and we don't have any plans to be. They have a certain novelty to them, but for the price point...

Hi Guys, A bit of an update on our stock levels today. Full disclosure: we've had two deliveries delayed in the last day. Which included most of our all grain equipment, our malt mill and kegging equipment. What we do have are kit beers, fermentables (dextrose, liquid and dry malt extracts)...
