I've been asked to help someone sell a bunch of homebrew equipment. Below
is the list. This individual is not interested in selling individual
pieces. If interested, you have to take everything. The kegs appear to be
holding pressure, but will need to be cleaned out. The price for everything
is $225 OBO. If interested, please email me for pictures and/or more
information. Please feel free to distribute this to other email lists.

Hello Mike-
We will be putting that information up later this week now that we are in production. Actually working on it as we speak. :)
We will be focusing our efforts in liquor stores as that is where people will be able to buy our products.
A tasting is set at Legacy Wine and Spirits next week Friday, October 25th from 4 to 7 pm. Our vodka and gin will be available for purchase there and other liquor stores around the area. Those stores and other tasting events will be on our site as well.
Thank you so much for the feedback!!!
