HOMEBREW SUPPLIERS
I personally recommend the guys at Brew Genie.
They are very friendly and helpful and I've been visiting their branch in Birmingham for a few years (admittedly for wine kits) but have recently brought one of their beer making kits to make hubby some beer.
We have also invested in one of their spirit making machines and have to say that the Tennessee Bourbon they do is identical to Jack Daniels and it works out at less than £3 per bottle - now that is brill!
I have been to a few other home brewing shops around the country and they all seem to be run by Victor Meldrew wannabe's. Not at Brew Genie.

I bought 4 faucet, handle & 4" shank assemblies at about 9.30pm last night and 4 hours later my order had been shipped!

Ah yeah, one in Birmingham (actually there are 2 or 3 in Bham I think) in Sutton Colefield. Popped in there to quickly pick something up on the way to meet a friend, ended up chatting for 40 minutes with the guy, sampling his homebrew gin and randomly buying a Lager kit.Lady Eleanor wrote:I personally recommend the guys at Brew Genie.
Flagon and Cask in Nottingham, fair range of all grain stuff as well compared to some other HBS I've been in.
Indeed im still waiting 18 days after receiving an email telling me there would be a seven working day delay in my order. when i eventually receive my goods i shall send them a cutting e mail something along the lines of "you useless ba%^%$%ds" , subtle but fair, definately wont be using them again.andywills wrote:dear god! how on earth are easybrew still in business? over a month, managed to get a part order but nothing else...they don't reply to e-mails, hard to get through on phone....
