It’s hard being a good beer lover in North Mississippi. Our state’s antiquated restriction on the allowed percentage of alcohol by volume in beer prevents the majority of craft beers and microbrews from being sold in Mississippi. As a result our store shelves and coolers are stocked mainly with the tasteless offerings from the three American mega-breweries.

Beer brewed with love, care, and quality ingredients is tough for the average Mississippian to find. Thankfully home brewing is a legal option for beer connoisseurs in our state. I’ve just taken up this hobby and I’m discovering how easy it can be to create my own truly incredible homebrew. I know there are others in the Starkville area who appreciate good beer. My hope is that we can find each other and build a local culture of home brewing together.

I’ve got my brew gear all set up and I’m ready to brew.  Here we go!
