Is there anyone All Grain Brewing In the Waterford/Tipperary Area.
There seems to be No home brew supplier in this area so I'm starting to think I'm in a beer making waistland

I'm Waterford based, but attending the KK Brewers meets as you are correct, there isnt a huge scene in the Waterford area !

2 or 3 of the Limerick brewers group are actually Tipperary brewers and you're welcome to come along any time we have a meet, which is rare enough in fairness!

thing is there are homebrewers all around but not always online. Wonder if we could help with a bit of promotion in your local areas to see if we can muster up some new members for tis. :)

Thanks for your replies Lads and thanks for your offers to go to your clubs.
It would be nice to have someone with more experience in All grain brewing in my area or someone to taste some of my beers with some judging knowledge, as I would like to go into some competitions in the future. It would be nice to meet like minded people but driving to Kilkenny or Limerick, not having a beer because of driving home (1 hr each way) really doesn't  appeal. I wonder why brewing is not as popular in this area.

Grew up around those parts but don't get down that much these days. Lovely part of the world.
