Brewer’s Apprentice

This place is awesome. A great spot for people who want to learn to brew as well as a great spot to pick up ingredients for those who already do. The staff is knowledgeable and the owners are great. They have tons of recipes to choose from or you can create your own recipe. There is also a lot of equipment for sale as well as wine kits, etc.

I’ve homebrewed four recipes with my brothers now from Brewer’s Apprentice, and we are thrilled. The prices for equipment, except kegging, are all better than on the internet. Their recipe selection is impressive and they work with you to alter recipes if you want. Very good place and it’s great to support the local guys who supply homebrewers.

I have been brewing here for about a year now and I always have a good time. This is a great place to go to learn about brewing from people who have experience. All of the ingredients you need are here. We even made a batch of a Mad Elf knock-off last time. I can’t compare prices because I don’t know of any other places that do this. I have never been unhappy with any brew that I have made on the premisis. If you are unsure during any step, just ask and they will show you the way. I have also had the opportunity to try many beers while brewing as the other brewers are always willing to share.

I have not brewed on site here, as the prices were pretty high in comparison to another brew on premise that I have been to. They have a pretty good selection of homebrew supplies and ingredients though. Anything they don’t have they seem to be happy to special order for you. They carry white labs yeast, and pretty much all the malts and hops that you would be interested in purchasing. I don’t know his name, but the main beer guy seems to know his stuff and the female owners are nice. Wish it was a bit closer to me.

Well, I don’t homebrew yet but I’ve been to this shop a few times for other stuff. The place has an obviously helpful staff and there is always a good contingent of folks in there with smiling faces. I also have a few brewing friends who swear by the place. Both of those things go a looong way in my book. That could be in part because those folks are making their own beer and wine. Yep, it’s a brew on premise joint besides being a homebrew shop. I will not hesitate to hit this shop for my supplies once I start to brew.
