On your site I see "... ordering the beer base from our delivery partner ...". What areas of the USA does your partner service? I get the feeling that I might not be able to get the beer base in my area.
@_dev_noise Right now, we've secured distribution for the beer base in NYC. We're excited to see pre-orders coming in from all over (US & beyond) and are using that to figure out where to focus next for securing distribution. Let us know where you're from and we'll be able to count your geographic area as interested :)
@_dev_noise Adding Philly to our list of areas to try to get distribution in! :)

Really interesting gateway to DIY brewing. Tempted myself, but to clarify basically it seems like you flavor a existing beer with hops, malt, etc? How exactly does the base part work?
@joshuaterrym Thanks for your interest, Joshua! Our bases are pre-fermented with our proprietary strains of yeast to let you experiment with new drinks and flavors quickly and easily. Currently, we have 3 base varieties - a Medium Amber base, a Golden Pale base, and a Unfiltered Wheat base. You add the bases (on their own or in combination with one another), malts, hops, and any flavorings you choose, to the WHYM growler. Carbonate, chill, and 24 hours you've got your own beer :)
The cool things about the bases we've developed is that you can actually use them and the growler to make more than just beer. While it's been so hot, for example, I've been jiving on a hard ginger ale I'm making with WHYM.
Hope that answers your question!

@luba_safran Ok, so one has to use the pre-developed bases. Understood.

I also got to play with the beta version! They've figured out a really easy way to make your own beer. You use their fermented beer base, but you control the ending type, flavor and color of it! Brilliant.
There are many recipes to start out with, so anyone can get it up and running fast and easy. For all you beer lovers this is great way to customize your own beer without the hassle of going through a long process.

This is really interesting. It sounds like I can customize my beer? How exactly does it work?
@jamespkeane Thanks for the interest. The kit includes a recipe book with recipes for 5 different beers. Like regular cooking recipes, you can follow the recipes to a T or play around with adding different ingredients. So the other night, I was having friends over and I used the WHYM Unfiltered Wheat beer base, added ginger and wasabi root, and served it with Thai noodles. Let me know if you have any more questions!
@maisie_devine: The kit includes a recipe book with 5 beer recipes to get you started, but the possibilities are pretty limitless. I've been making a yummy hard ginger ale with it this week!
