Jim’s Home Brew

October 7, 2007
Jim’s Home Brew is a premier home brew supply house. The staff are very knowledgeable and can help you with all your questions. They also stock a great and varied selection of beers from microbreweries to imports that can not be beet in the Spokane area. You can count on Jim’s Home Brew to have something that you have not tried every time you walk in.

Visited Jim’s this past week. Great place for brewing items, and not too bad of a selection of beers. A bit pricey, but they had some good Belgians and Germans. I’ll keep visiting til I try them all.

I decided to check out Jim’s while on a work trip to the spokane area, and I’m glad I did. I was able to find several stop beers I’ve wanting to try for a long time, and several local beers that I had never heard of. the entire selection seemed to consist of nothing but microbrews. They also had an extensive assortment of homebrewing equipment. The staff was content to let me browse their selection without being followed, which I like. They only asked if I needed help when I looked like I was searching for something specific, and then seemed very knowledgeable about the beers that they had. I also got to meet Jim, who seemed very friendly, and he made some suggestions about places to visit to sit and have a few pints. If I’m ever back in the area I’ll be sure that this is the first place in Spokane I stop to pick up some beers.

Thank you wulfhere for the rating. I visited Jim’s for the first time last night and it was amazing. The selection was unbelievable, and Bob gave me a free Trappist glass just for stopping in. definitely an amazing place. If you live in Spokane, you MUST see the store. Fantastic experience, and I’ll be back very soon.

The guy at Thrifty Car Rental at the airport told me about Jim’s. The don’t stock any BMC at all, choosing instead to offer what the other stores in the valley don’t carry. I found Thomas Hardy’s, Yeti, Rochefort, Westmalle, Bitburger, Stone, DFH, Shenkerla, and literally dozens more. They have a good selection of foreign beers from Polald, Chzeckoslovakia, Romania, etc. I was impressed with the quality of the beers they do carry--there isn’t much crap beer here. If you visit Spokane, stop at Jim’s. When he found out I was from the forbidden zone (Billings, MT), the President, Bob Ketcham, gave me a Thomas Hardy’s 1987 from the goodness of his heart. How cool is that?
