So Much More than just Grain, Hops, and Yeast…

It is with sincere gratitude that we celebrate the first anniversary of North Texas Homebrew Supply. As we reflect on this incredible journey, Laura and I can’t help but be appreciative of the support, encouragement, and camaraderie that we have received from all of you. From the very beginning, our dream of providing top-notch brewing supplies and fostering a diverse, thriving community of homebrewers wouldn’t have been possible without you.
Friends and Family:
Friends and Family:To our dear friends and family, we owe a debt of gratitude for being a strong support network during the launch of this adventure. Your belief in our vision, coupled with your countless hours of assistance in setting up the store, made this dream a reality.

Rudy
More brewdays with guest brewers!
Daniel Hellrung ko
More brew days, and home brew competitions!
Jim Hall
Those of us who are involved in church should make our parishioners aware that brewing beer is an ancient tradition of hospitality in the early church which should be encouraged.
David
Continue to welcome anyone that is curious about the hobby, provide advice when asked for, and brew more beer.
Joe Rhoades
Tap into community HOA’s and offer some high level, how to-brew day classes using an extract kit to show how easy it can be to make your own beer at home. Bring a couple kits to sell as well. 🙂
Juan Pablo
I’d love to see recipe kits (all grain or extract) of beer recipes the NTHBS created.
Mark Ewing
Continuing on with the awesome in person events, and doing something similar with/at breweries around NTX. Having a variety of topics, both in depth for experienced brewers and higher level for beginners. Cover anything from refining a recipe to starting/running a business in the industry.
Marqus
I’d like to see recipe kits that were developed by staff. You have some great brewers working there and I want to brew what they are brewing.
Kevin shaw
Vlogs or how to videos for beginners
Wes
I like the kits you have already, and I’m agreeing with others here. A few kits/favs from the staff would kinda cool. Or even offer kits from other brands/suppliers if possible.
Dylan Evans
I like the idea of recipe kits made by staff.
Especially a simple all grain, like a SMASH kit by geography.
Would also Iove to see TexMalt available.
NTHBA information & Calendar would be great for the community as well.
Walter Hodges
Congratulations on your first of hopefully many anniversaries. Thank you for your support of homebrewing in Dallas.
Garett
More brew days, brewery tours, guest brewers, small batch recipe kits.
Ara Jordan
It would be amazing to have a Facebook Group or other space where people could share recipes, ask for advice, and a place where we as a group could go to brew festivals together.
Rocky
Brew days where experienced homebrewers guide step by step to newbies. We have the fortune to be guide by Eric, Terry and a lot of homebrewers since day one.
Thank you for introducing us to this great community.
Cheers
Sarah Leverenz
❤️❤️❤️❤️ Congratulations!!
Elizabeth Mayes
The community is amazing so far, as a beginner I love the encouragement and constructive atmosphere 🙂 the only improvement I can think of is more of it !
David Trail
Just keep on growing and helping all of us to be better brewers!!
Desiree Mora
Hop water starter kits! I can’t be the only one interested in making them 🙂
Randy Grogan
Keep doing what you are doing! It’s great and inspiring… Makes me want to brew even more.
Thanks for helping to keep us brewing!
Noel Marian
For starters, NTHB is the best thing that’s happened to Dallas in a while. You can feel the passion for the craft as well as knowledge and insight.
All I can suggest is nothing. This concept will hold its wait and be a staple brew supply, from small to large scale, they got it. Can’t wait what the future holds for you guys
Will
Echo all the notes above that y’all are making an incredible, positive impact on this community. Keep doing what you’re doing!
Brent R Samford
Offer clinics at local churches or clubs on how to homebrew. People will show up just out of curiosity.
Jane Samford
It would be great to offer specials on homebrew kits.
Thank you and Happy Anniversary!
Morgan
Access to trial brew systems that you sell! And a larger selection of hops and yeast. But you guys are still doing an awesome job regardless!
Jake Jorda
May be going against the grain here (pun intended) but would it be possible to home brew a non/low alcohol beer? I have several friends interested in this hobby but don’t drink anymore
Stephen
I would love to see some recipe kits or more info about recipe development
