Greetings
After 5 years of operations in Shakopee in the restaurant and brewery have
closed. Harwell's (formerly The Brew Station) becomes the 4th brewpub in the
Twin Cities to cease operations in just over 1 year.
Some of the supplies ordered just prior to the closing are being returned to
credit some of my unreimbursed expenses or are being sold to local brewing
supply shops. Other supplies need to find a home so I can recover some of
the lost expenses..
I have lots of Five Star acid cleaners for brewing system (acid 5 and acid
6), beverage dispensing cleaners (acid line cleaner, beverage line cleaner)
and saniclean. Gallons of acid cleaners. Also about 80# of PBW. I was hoping
to sell these to one of the brewpubs but none have responded.
To the point of this message, while the grain and hops are still pretty
fresh, I'm holding a fire sale (without the flames and smoke). I have about
30 pails of grain, some full some not, and two boxes full of hops. Even if I
brewed as often as Rick I couldn't use all this grain up in months, and the
same for hops.
I haven't inventoried the hops yet but they include First Gold, Styrian
Goldings, UK East Kent Golding, US Kent, US Saaz, Tettnagger, Hallertau
(US), Hallertau (Ger), Fuggles, Willamette Cascade, Chinook, Centential,
Target
Grain - the quantity varies and some has already been "grabbed"
Simpson's Golden Promise - a damaged full bag has been spoken for but the
still is a partial pail
Weyermann Pilsner (spoken for)
Weyermann Melanoidin
Gambrinus Honey Malt
Dingemann's Special B
Most of the rest are Briess:
20L, 60l, 2-row, 6-row, white wheat, red wheat, Chocolate, Black, Roasted
Barley, Victory, Vienna, Munich, Pale
I don't have a scale (it stayed at the brewery to be sold) so grain may be
sold by scoop or the pail. I'm not sure exactly how to price the hops. Some
were or are 1 lb packs and others are the balance of a 5lb pack. Regardless
of how we measure them this will be a one time sale.
I can't bring everything to the party but I'll try to bring as much as I
hear responses.
