I am thrilled to announce I am moving to the best beer city in the SEC. I can’t wait to drink some Yellow Hammer at their new brewery. I hope it’s open by August (when I will move).
I will have to change my handle to. My current one is for Miss State Univ, where I work. At MSU people say “Hail State”. I changed it to Ale State and added the y’all since that’s what we down here. I will need Huntsville handle. I will be working at UAH. Suggestions?
That’s cool! I doubt we will be in new facility by August but the beer garden we have now is going to be really hard to beat anywhere. PM me and let me know when you are settled in and let me buy you a welcome pint!
Thanks. The beer garden looks great in pictures. Can’t wait.
Im loving this…
Yellowhammer Brewing to break ground Thursday on Stone Middle School expansion, partner with pizza food truck
Nearly seven months after revealing plans to open at the Stone Middle School project near downtown Huntsville , Yellowhammer Brewing will host a groundbreaking ceremony Thursday at the development. Yellowhammer, which has been brewing Belgian and German-style craft beer in downtown since…
Keith I think I am gonna put a visit to your digs on my bucket list!
Yeah, man. Y’all come! I’ve had a few people from the forum stop in. BrewBama and Moricaixavier (Johnathon) and a couple others I can’t remember screen names. Looking forward to meeting alestate soon!
Next time I’m going to come when the tasteing room is open!
Hell, you didn’t even get a cup of coffee. And I had good coffee.
Sounds like you should call ahead and mention cigars and whisky(-ey)… you never said scotch, bourbon or irish there majorvices.
I’m primarily a bourbon drinker but I do like Irish whiskey too.
Alas, I’ve never acquired a taste for scotch. But there still time!
I’m hoping the ground breaking is still on Thurs. Looks kinda cold!
I’m excited about the stone oven pizza and home brew shop, too.
Welcome to Huntspatch Alestateyall.
Thanks, Brewbama.
Would be cool if the three of us huntsvillians had a beer summit. We have a great homebrew club in Huntsville and some very good homebrewers in it. I’ll try to get something scheduled and introduce you two.
I won’t be a Huntsvillian until Late July. I am a villian (Starkvillian).
That being said, I am in for sure! I will be looking into homebrew clubs. I am in one now and love it.
Speaking of, we have War of the Wort in May. Y’all should enter or judge. We put judges up for free.

Sounds like a good idea.
Time for the beer summit. I finally moved. I am ready to go to the Yellowhammer tap room.
I am also interested in the homebrew club. Which do you guys recommend?
There are 8 breweries in HSV. Yellow hammer is my fav because of the beer garden out back.
I recommend Wish You Were Beer for your LHBS because your other choice sux. It’s not much but it’ll get better. They’ll be putting in a store next to Yellowhammer and Straight to Ale once the school is finished.
I am not a member of a HTC because… he’ll I dunno why. I"m just not. LOL
I also recommend Sexton for your CO2. Great guys.
Thanks! Looking forward to the new LHBS at the campus.
Say again?
Tommy - I can get you in touch with the Rocket City Homebrewer’s. They are a bunch of good guys. They are also hyper critical so be aware that they will shoot you straight. but I feel that makes you a better brewer in the end.
I am flying out to San Diego Wednesday and will be gone this weekend. However, we have our monthly “Taster’s Club” this afternoon. It is member’s only but if you want to come as my guest I would be happy to have you as “Welcome to Huntspatch” gift.
