THE NEW WEBSITE
The address is still exactly the same, but our website has undergone a major renovation! Improved navigation, customer product reviews, wishlists, pretty pictures, cool search matrices for products like liquid yeast and wine kits ... a big thanks to all who helped us with the Beta test! Come see for yourself at www.northernbrewer.com.

THE TOP TIER IS HERE
Blichmann Engineering's modular brewstand is infinitely configurable and ships for only $7.99 with BrewSaver shipping! In the week since it went on the website, this has been our best-selling product! See what all the hubbub is about here.

... and follow along on the assembly and maiden voyage of a Top Tier at NB World HQ on Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/northern.brewer
