Keg Connection has acquired Home Brew Supply

Press Release

Press Release, August 21st, 2017

Kegconnection, LLC is excited to announce the acquisition of HomebrewSupply We have genuinely admired the positive impact HomebrewSupply has had within our industry these last few years and understand that their customers expect exceptional products and service, which we intend on building upon. The website, HomebrewSupply, will be restocked and back to filling orders over the next two weeks. Our current timeline includes HomebrewSupply having a soft relaunch as quickly as possible and then a grand re-opening event when all fulfillment is fully back online.

A very large aspect of our many goals for this acquisition is to bring back all of the popular brewing kits and approximately 90% of the items that HomebrewSupply has carried. Alongside this, we will also be greatly enhancing their draft beer equipment section to better offer Homebrew Supply customers a wider variety of equipment and kit options.

We are also excited to announce that Ladik Joe Ermis will be joining our team! As many of you already know, Joe is an avid homebrewer and has been with HomebrewSupply since the company’s grand opening. Joe has also been involved with many aspects of the business and will definitely be staying involved with customer service and maintaining that which HomebrewSupply customers have grown to love.

Kegconnection, LLC (www.kegconnection.com) started in 2006, also in San Marcos, TX, and is now located in Comanche, TX. We have been an industry leader in the draft beer equipment side of the homebrew market and believe that the acquisition of HomebrewSupply will allow us to better serve all of our customers by bringing additional depth and experience to both websites. Both websites share an enthusiasm and exceptional zeal for customer service that we’ll be expanding on even more through additional content, in-depth how to videos, podcasts, and other beneficial and informational content!

Your patience and support is greatly appreciated while we get HombrewSupply fulfillment moved and increase the website’s inventory. We are committed to continuing development of the website and are excited at what we’ll soon be offering to you! HomebrewSupply will operate as an independent website that is supported by Kegconnection, LLC’s fulfillment team. The staff from Kegconnection and Homebrew Supply thank you for your business and look forward to working together to serve you even better in the future!

Sincerely,

Kegconnection and Homebrew Supply staff

Viceland Looking for Homebrewers to appear on Season 2 of Beerland

I received the following from Erin Glass Casting Producer for Viceland’s Beerland.

“I’m currently working on the second season of Beerland, a series that dives into different craft beer communities around the US to feature fascinating homebrewers and the brews they make! We will showcase different homebrewers from all walks of life who are passionate about not only the beer they make but the community they share it with. We’d see the interesting places they enjoy their beer and what goes into making their brew one of a kind! We’re very interested in finding diverse and unique people and fun, visual places and events where they share their beer! We’re looking to do our next episodes in MN, AL, OR, MT, MS, LA, IL, MI, and AK this July/August.”

If you know any homebrewers who might be interested in sharing their story and passion with us, please pass along my info and have them email the following info:

  • Name, Age and Photo City, State
  • Years brewing
  • Who you brew with/Why do you brew/Where you brew
  • Have you made any “specialty” brews
  • Where you DRINK your brew. Any unique locations/events/gatherings etc?
  • Do you have any homebrew events/club involvement in July/Aug
  • What makes you/your brew unique
  • How has homebrewing impacted your life/family/community?

East Coast Yeast’s Mission is: “To provide new, fresh, liquid cultures for your special brewing projects. Specializing in artisanal yeast blends and pure yeast strains long forgotten.”

Update… Sad News

A statement from East Coast Yeast:

ECY will close for good by the Summer of 2025

After 11 years and supplying close to 600 breweries, it is time to close the doors and drink more beer. I thank all those who have supported me and the business and I sincerely wish the best for all.

Cheers,

And… We’re Back!

 

Yesterday morning I awoke to several messages letting me know that this site was unavailable.  After some digging I found out that:  An automated process that is run by our web host, Google, disabled the entire site and effectively marked it for deletion.

Of course, I took exception to that and started working to reverse that process.  While this protest process was working, I also set up an alternate site. I published a post there letting people know what was going on.

In response to that I received an email from Robert, an HBF reader, letting me know that he works at Google and was trying to work on our issue from the inside.  He made some contacts on our behalf and helped to get things corrected.  Many thanks to Robert!!

This morning I received another email letting me know our site has been restored!

The help and encouragement that I received during this outage goes to show you why this site works.  The reason for that is… the homebrewing community is amazing!  Homebrewing is a awesome hobby filled with awesome people!

EDIT: I received an email from someone that works at Google with the group that hosts this site.  It was a very nice apology along with the news that they are launching an internal investigation to try and figure out the cause of this with hopes of avoiding it in the future
