Nobody think there's a decent demand for a local homebrew store in Baton Rouge? I think the selection that Marcello's has is crap. Something I've always wanted to open.

As a small biz owner myself, I can say that the expenses for things most don't even realize, eat you up. Forget the tax part, there are a zillion little things that you have to pay for and it adds up fast. So, for someone to start a business in this economy, it takes balls.
That said, there does seem to be a boom in homebrewing throughout the country and the right place, in the right town, can be successful. I give Brewstock as much business as possible because they're local and have good prices and are knowledgeable.
