Hunter Valley / Newcastle - best AG shops

[pokolbinguy]

Hi All,

it has been quite a number of years since I have been brewing and its time to get my mash on.

Many moons ago "Mark's Home Brew" was the go to or delivery via Ross and the crew at CraftBrewer.

Sadly both no longer exist anymore.

So, who / where is the go to for good grain supplies, either in person in the Hunter Valley or for delivery?

Any tips would be awesome.

Cheers, Pok V2.0

Steve is in Brandy Hill, works from a facility at his property.
Took over MHB's business.
Was my supplier for years when I lived in Corlette, before moving to Brisbane. although I still get stuff from him via delivery.
Highly recommended.

Definitely Steve at Brewman, he's an absolute legend and looked after me many times
The guys at Newcastle Homebrew/Noble Barons are very helpful too

Yeah, I second the Newcastle Homebrew/Noble Barons recommendation. I get most of my grain from their New Lambton store. They also do free delivery to some parts of the valley.

Brewman/Steve would have to be one of the best home brew suppliers in all of Australia. The quality and range of his malts is better than I’ve seen anywhere. Plus I think he’s the only place now to supply Wyeast.
The Newcastle Homebrew store is also good, but their ingredients list is a bit basic. They are a better store if you’re looking for equipment. Friendly helpful guys in there too.
