It looks like some functionality is returning to the old Mr B forum, but for me it is too little too late. I may still order from them from time to time. Actually I like some of their new extracts like the Northwest Pale Ale and Bewitched Amber Ale as a base for my own brews. I keep checking in to the forum but mainly it feels like watching a train wreck. Just can't keep from looking.
It is much more fun here now.

Well I quit brewing hme's in feb. and never bought a kit, I just buy dme, hops,and yeast. you got a good beer without much work or time involved. I can make 5 gal for what a mrb kit will cost with s&h. So it's not product loyalty I liked the site and the people. It was a great pace to learn. I still hit the noob threads over there to try to help them. and check the drainpipe but don't know fro how much longer.

Say, did anyone else get an email from Mr. Beer? They were asking me if I have any kids in elementary school that can help them fix the website.

It is a shame about the site, but to be accurate, the basic log-in and posting functions are working now. The thing is ... this forum right here looks and runs the best of any of been on, including my motorcycle forum I go on, and that one is very good. On a side note, I got a lot of compliments from my friends when I served MrB Diablo IPA. Doesn't really taste like an IPA, but it's good.
