Sad news

Portland's F.H.Steinbart, the country's oldest homebrew supply store, is closing. My wife bought my first homebrew kit there over 20 years ago and got me started on this great hobby. Lift a glass to Steinbarts friends.

That's tough, I sure hope that home brew shops in general aren't a dieing breed...

Pourin' one out for the homies!

Are you now in a supply store desert?

The desert is growing, more and more closures all the time.

My other go-to store was MainBrew outside of Portland. The new owner bought it as a package deal with the attached restaurant (which is her main interest). Last time I was there, the place was completely picked over; not looking good.
But I remembered a store in Vancouver WA, Bader Beer & Wine. Steve Bader used to write articles for BYO magazine, and recently sold the shop to a new owner who's doing a great job- bright, clean and fully stocked. It's a ways from me, but my choices are limited and I'm happy to support a good shop.

When I lived in Vancouver I bought most of my stuff from Bader.

What's going on at More Beer? I went through at least a half dozen 2 row grain choices , all said out of stock try something else.
I hope their not having troubles too...

I was on just on their website today and it appears to be well stocked. They must have been out of a lot stuff and just got a shipment.

It was my mistake, I missed the word "if" it is out of stock..
