Founded in 1984 and incorporated in February 1988, HHE is one of New York's best homebrew suppliers. The store is owned and run by Roger Savoy, Anita Savoy (Roger's wife), and Bruce Lucier. Roger has been brewing making wine for over thirty years and beer for more than a decade. He is past President of the Home Wine and Beer Trade Association and has taken wine classes at the Cornell Hotel School and beer judge certification classes. Bruce has been doing brewing and vinting since 1997. Most weekdays you'll find Mark Plaat, who manages the store, taking care of the store. .
We carry True Brew and Brewer's Best boxed ingredient kits, as well as canned kits and ingredients from Alexander's, Briess, Brewferm, Coopers, Mountmellick, and Muntons. Additionally, we stock dozens of grains, hops, yeast, spices, adjuncts, and chemicals (such as brewing salts and cleansers), not to mention the gadgets that you 'really need' (or so you told your significant other) to make that special brew. This means that we stock the largest variety of beer-making supplies in the area at the best prices. 'Brown Box Beer' kits and 'Clones of the Month' allow you to broaden your repertoire of recipes at reduced cost..
Vintners--you'll also be pleased with the variety our store offers. You'll find Selection, Selection International, Selection Estate, Vintner's Reserve, and Vino del Vida wine ingredient kits, offering everything from light white wines such as Chablis and Riesling to full-bodied reds like Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon. We also have all the goodies (equipment, additives, and accessories) you're likely to need; if we don't have it, we can probably special-order it. If demand allows, we'll increase the variety of wine-related items, so come on in and force us to stock up.
Have you considered other beverages? One old specialty drink is mead: 'Nectar of the Gods.' Although fermentation takes a while longer, this honey-based wine is easy to make. We now stock several varieties of honey so you can make mead, and have it your way. You can also make your own soda, liqueurs, and vinegar.
Looking for a gift for that hard-to-buy-for person? How about a gift certificate? They're available in any denomination.
In short, we want to make it easy and fun for you to make wine and beer. And we'd love to hear from you, whether it's a suggestion or just to say 'hi.' Just drop us a postcard or letter, or e-mail us at while saying these words:
