Paul's Favorite Beer Web Sites:

• Celebrator Beer News

  The best Beer 'Zine around. The centerfold of every issue lists the name, address and phone number of almost every Microbrewery and Beer Pub West of the Mississippi! You can usually pick them up free at any Microbrewery (if not, ask the manager of your favorite Microbrewery to start ordering them for his patrons!). The Web version has the articles and past issues and some good links.

• Cats Meow 3

  You want home brew recipes? They've got home brew recipes! And lots of them. Check out hundreds of tried and true recipes for every level of homebrewing expertise!

• The St. Louis Brews' Homebrew Club

  I was a member of the St. Louis Brews from 1993-1996. The Club's Web Page has lots of home brewing tips and updates on the latest contests. Check out info on the club and enter the annual Happy Holidays Homebrew Contest every December! Don't forget to check out my second place award for my Luther's Lager in the American Lager category in Dec. of 1997.

• St. Louis Brews Happy Holidays' Homebrew Competition Results

  Look for my winning beer from the 1994 St. Louis Brews, Happy Holidays Homebrew Competiton in the Specialty category!

• St. Patrick's of Texas Brewers' Supply

  The Best brewing supply prices I've found so far in the U.S! Send them a request for a catalog by calling 1-800-448-4224. Don't forget to visit their web page for a step-by-step photo journal of the brewing process!

  Unfortunately in 2004 they stopped selling homebrew ingredients and only sell equipment and large scale set-ups for microbreweries and wineries. But their old info is stilled cached and very informative.

• The Brewery!

  This Virtual Library will give you all the advice you'd ever want on every Brewing related topic!! It has "Total Homebrewing Information" with all the links you need to get to what you want to know about Home brewing in general. Especially helpful is the link for finding home brew clubs in your area. I Highly recommend this site!

• Anderson Brewing Co., Boonville, CA.

  One of the Best Micro-breweries in N. Calif., and the U.S.!

  A great beer, a great page!
