Another one for Northern Brewer. Annapolis Homebrew is good too, they have some ingredients you won’t find locally often (like dehusked Carafa) and they ship QUICK. Also, North Country Malt is good for cheap grain.

I keep a list of homebrew supply stores on my web browser and use them when I go shopping. But for one-stop-shopping, Northern Brewer is very good.

Cheers!

I’m a big fan of austinhomebrew.com - fast shipping, good selection; I’ve never been disappointed.

I strongly second (or third) the support for Northern Brewer and Midwest Supplies. Both are run by good people who are willing to help. I’ve been to both stores in person and have alway been helped. Their internet side is also very supportive.

The ship quickly and they stand behind their product.
I should point out, I don’t work for either of them. I’m just a very satisfied customer.

Ive had good experiences with both Morebeer.com and Northern Brewer. Beerwine.com is also one that is said to be great. Jim Koch recomends it for people entering the Sam Adams homebrew competion.

The Open Directory Project has rather a long list of candidates.

i’ll second morebeer.com. i’ve ordered from them multiple times and they’ve always been quick and had decent prices.

I have had good luck with morebeer.com , they seem to have good prices on hops with the hop shortage we are experiencing and they ship fairly fast. So far I have ordered from them twice and I would definitely order from them again.

Having lived down the street from Northern Brewer for a while, I’d certainly second Brendan on that one. I wish there was a store like them near me now.

I’d prefer not to ship clear across the country for anything, but neither of my local stores (i.e. those within 25 miles, which is hard for me to call local anyway) carries anything organic. So I’ll likely support Seven Bridges (www.breworganic.com/) for my next batch of homebrew (or tap Nortern Brewers organic stock).

I recommend either Midwest Supplies or Northern Brewer. Both have big internet businesses, so the product is fresh. The selection is better than most, and so are the prices.
