Brew Stores

Now that my local store has closed, I shop around for what I need. I usually end up at morebeer.
 
I used Morebeer this week. Much quicker than my past dealings with Northern Brewers.

Where are you located? That can make a big difference in the cost of shipping.

Take a look at RiteBrew.

While they don't have free shipping, when I use the regional shipper (Spee-Dee) or UPS (under 45 pounds) I find that the total order cost is typically lower than other online stores. Currently, UPS has a significant "surcharge" for packages starting around 50 pounds.

For items that RiteBrew doesn't have, I'll look at (in sequence), Farmhouse Brewing Supply (WI), Home Brew Ohio (OH), Williams Brewing (CA), and MoreBeer. My preference is to shop regional (North Central USA) if I can.

I might have been a bit hasty with my compliments to Morebeer. Upon finally putting things away ,I found I am missing part of my order. I ordered three of their beer kits and only received two of them.

Check the website, they sometimes ship from multiple warehouses on different days

NC is fast becoming an eastern beer mecca (and that doesn't include Asheville, our Beer City!). We have a number of homebrew supply shops, but my favorite is Fifth Season Gardening, with locations in Carrboro, Charlotte, and Asheville. Great selection of grains, yeast, and hops, along with kits and a few canned extracts. https://fifthseasongardening.com/

I heard you can go to Riverbend and buy grain in the Asheville area. Their malt in the breweries down here rocks.
I like my store. It is only 20 minutes, but the only one left in Orlando. The only other choices are in Sanford and Tampa. Shipping is very expensive from my store, but pick-up is reasonable.

atlantic brew supply sells ingredients in increments as low as ounces. no pre-measured 1lb packs leaving you with left over grains you cant use. Shipping is fast and prices are very competitive.

Farmhouse is solid, miss Point Brew Supply in Stevens Point, used to be THE place for reasonable base malt.
 
I have tried most of the providers mentioned and postage seems to be the deciding factor, right after quality and freshness. Sometimes, Amazon has bulk dry yeast at a price I can't resist (~$1.50 per pack).
 
My favorite is Jasper's Homebrew & Winemaking (https://boomchugalug.com/). They are extremely fast, and as far as ingredients go, they have just about everything like every other place. As it turns out, ingredients are what I typically buy, since I already have all of the equipment that I already need, so there's no reason I have to purchase only from the corporate places. Also, I can order my malts in any custom quantity, crushed or uncrushed, that I like, which is helpful when I'm brewing one of my recipes. I don't like when I have to buy every ingredient in 1 lb quantities. I don't want to keep all of those leftovers kicking around.
 
Great Fermentations -Indianapolis and Fort Wayne. I'm in North Central Indiana...

In Alpharetta I visit Brew Depot. They almost always have what I need, prices are reasonable, and great friendly advice.

Now that I see that Beer & Wine Craft has dramatically upped their game since when I last looked (2021) I most definitely need to give them a visit.

How blessed I am to have TWO good brew stores within a half-hour's drive? (Note: a half hour drive in Atlanta is something like 7 miles...)

I'm the owner of Beer & Wine Craft so...

Please come and check us out! We're doing a Zombiedust for Halloween beer class. I probably have better music, too. ;)
