Home Beer-Making Sets

The Norther Brewer Starter Kit Offers a Good Excuse to Stay Indoors

— December 19, 2010 — Lifestyle
I've got the best gift idea for your beer loving friend: the Norther Brewer Starter Kit. It basically allows you to create a personal brewery in the comfort of your own home. Considering that many will be staying indoors rather than braving the cold, it might be the perfect way to pass the time.

Priced at only $80, the Norther Brewer Starter Kit is comprised of two 6-gallon buckets, a fermentation lock, tubing, a bottle filler, a brush, a capper, 144 bottle caps, a hydrometer, a sanitizer, instructions and a tutorial DVD. All you need to provide are the ingredients.
Trend Themes
1. Home Brewing Kits - As people look for ways to entertain themselves indoors, offering customizable, affordable, and easy-to-use home brewing kits present an opportunity for companies to tap into a growing market of beer enthusiasts.
2. DIY Alcohol Kits - Expanding the product beyond beer to include personal distillers for spirits, cider, and mead can put companies at the forefront of the DIY alcohol-making trend, appealing to consumers who want control in crafting their own drinks.
3. Subscription-based Brewing Ingredients - By providing recurring shipments of high-quality ingredients, companies can take advantage of the rise in subscriptions and convenience for consumers who want to continue making their own beer while avoiding trips to the store.
Industry Implications
1. Homebrewing Industry - The homebrewing industry can continue catering to the demand for affordable and easy-to-use kits with customizable options, such as flavor profiles and ingredients for a diverse user experience.
2. E-commerce Industry - As e-commerce and subscriptions continue to grow, online retailers can expand their product offerings to include DIY alcohol-making kits and provide convenient shipping options to consumers.
3. Hospitality Industry - Bars and restaurants can also incorporate DIY alcohol-making into their offerings, providing a unique experience for customers to create their own drinks while increasing revenue through the sale of kits and ingredients.
