Came to buy my first brewing kit. They got me a good starter that will work for years of brewing. Answer all the questions I had and gave great advice. We live 45 minutes away and will definitely be back many times. Had left one of the brewery supply places close to them and had got no help.

I am on vacation and like to check out local homebrew stores when I travel. I didn't get the guys name that was working but he seemed very knowledgeable and capable of helping me with whatever I needed. They had a lot of products in stock as well as fresh hops and yeast. Definitely would recommend of I was local.

Very friendly and helpful staff. Prices are completely in line with the competition. The kits they have are well constructed as well. I love that it's right next to Martha's so I can get some groceries as well. Would highly recommend. I took one star off because it is a small store that feels relatively cramped.

This is my favorite brew store. They've got everything and it's all smartly organized. Their grain selection has specialty malts I can't find at other stores. Best of all the staff is easy to talk to, knowledgeable without being pretentious. And this shop is next to Lyon St cafe and Martha's Vineyard. Great little block.

Excellent store with everything you may need and very knowledgeable and helpful staff. They did not have the cheap air fitting I needed for sale. He found one in his "junk box" and included it for free. Spent 15 minutes on that. Honest people who know homebrewing and have been very generous with advice. My go to supply store from now on.

I like to support local so I decided to order a Java Porter kit from this store and I am very pleased with the ingredients, instructions, and fast shipping. My original order was missing an item but after a quick call Ben got the missing item to me within a couple of days along with some other memorabilia. I will definitely recommend this place to other and will order from here again.

great store for the beginning or advanced homebrewer. When I was just starting a year or so ago they took the time to talk me through everything...the guy in the store literally talked to me for 30+ minutes and was very knowledgeable. Great ingredient kits from their own recipes are great for the beginning brewer who doesn't want a mass produced kit.

Great selection of malts, friendly knowledgeable folks. Website needs work, search function is buggy and drilldown menus run off the page. Also they may or may not have items in stock that are for sale online. I live 2 hrs North so I have placed online orders twice, once for in store pickup and once to be shipped. Both times I placed orders online they had to substitute the yeast strain I requested for something else, and the order they shipped, they combined two malt bills into one large bag even though I requested twice on the order form that they remain separate. Shop here, but do it in person!
