Here in Woodstock, trickum and 92!
Also, Barrel & Barley is awesome. Zach that owns the place is a great guy. Just picked up some brews there yesterday.
have they started selling grains etc yet?
Kennesaw home brewer here. I've been brewing since 2009ish. I've been doing partial mashes, but I'm about to make the jump into all grain in the next month.
Are there any homebrewer get togethers in our area? I'd love sample other people's brews and get feedback on mine.
There is a store on bells that has homebrew stuff including grains, yeast and pretty much everything you need to brew a batch. It is called Dogwood Growlers. It's just north of 92. Even open on Sunday. www.dogwoodgrowlers.com They seem like beer lovers and good people. I have been meaning to drop in and help support someone that had the nerve to do what I wish I could do. I think I will make it a point to go today.
Correction, the west ga area DESIRES a homebrew store! I would brew twice as much if I didnt have to drive 45 minutes each way to get ingredients. And I know many people interested until they ask "where do you buy the stuff to make it?"I live in KSaw, recently in Dallas. I've always thought the Paulding/West Cobb area deserved a homebrew store. Decent local prices always trump mail order for me. I've also been looking for a local brew club. Date and Time is never going to work for everyone but I'm willing to help get it started even with my busy schedule. PM if you're interested and maybe we can get something growing. I love brewing during fall and winter months.
If you're scared to use the phone (don't be... tell him that crazy brit Andy said to call, he'll warm right up to ya), or just email Ernesto, he'll get back to you with in / out of stockDo they stock a good amount of ingredients? This place just makes more sense for me to drive to than brewmasters warehouse.
+1 on that. I've always used BMW, but lately they've had a lot of stock issues... My last recipe needed some smoked malt and BMW told me they had everything but that but they'd be getting more that night. While I was in there another guy who had been told that his order would be ready at 4pm (it was now 5:30) had driven an hour to pick up his order only to be told that they didn't have all of his order either! I had heard about Dogwood Growlers so I figured I'd call them to see if they had what I needed - they did and the guy offered to have it ready for me by the time it arrived. Turns out these guys are closer to me than BMW and have better prices when buying in bulk (I was quoted $40/bag of 2-row vs $45 at BMW) and they don't mind ordering sacks of grain for you if eh don't have it in stock. I'm much more likely to use these guys moving forward. Not to mention I can pick up a growler at the same time!k_mcarthur said:They are good people, I was there just yesterday. Got me a refill with Terrapin Moo-hoo and it's the only place my wife can find Ace Pear Cider. It's a nice place.
Hey guys. I just started All-grain brewing a few months ago. Been brewing for over a year. Do not have much experience, but looking for someone to brew with one weekend and get some knowledge. I am in woodstock town lake area. Thanks for the info on the local brew supplies I drive by it everyday and had no idea! Will stop there after work!
Hope y'all got some of the cinnamon rolled wake n bake from Terrapin. I really like this. Just enough sweetness, cinnamon and coffee to make my tastebuds dance.
I will be honest. I fvckin love terrapin. They do a really good job. I have been thee once and will go again soon. They had liquid bliss on tap last time I went and I had to sit and tailgate in the parking lot for an hour before I could leave. But this CRWNB is really good. Just the right enough sweetness to gut the bitter. A+ if I could get this all winter with LHBs Nitro I would be set. We should plan a trip to the brewery or another loCal brewery ie; red brick, red hare, burnt hickory. Right
I only ended up with 3. But I did not go to 2 stores that I found them at. Could not spend 60 bucks on 5 beers. I can brew 10 gallons for that. Won't be as good but who cares after 5-6 of them. I will say it again. They are glorious.
Someone need to open something on the westside. We got no homebrew love over here. Its a 45 minute drive to brewmasters whse, and thats the closest place to buy grain ingredients.
Burnt Hickory's not that far from me and those guys are making magic over there. I'm definitely game for an HBTGA brewery meet up at any of the breweries.
I've been to Red Hare, Burnt Hickory, Terrapin, Sweetwater and Three Taverns so far, always open to check out another one.
I currently live in Villa rica, but will be moving to the Gwinnett Area in the next few months, I need to find some brewing Buddies!!
I have been looking around for some and can't find it. Where did you guys find any? I am located down in atlanta but come up to kennesaw/acworth/marietta all of the time.
I got mine at Bullock's and Lucky's in Woodstock. Sprayberry and Bullock's in Marietta got it as well. I talked to one other shop that said there's still a possibility he'll get some next week, although I've heard from others that everything had shipped.
I live up in Gainesville, but I go to the homebrew store in Buford. It's a great store! The guy that owns it has been brewing a VERY long time. He has great advice, his prices are very reasonable, and he's more than willing to help any way he can.
I didn't know there was one in Buford, thats around the area i'm moving too. I was going to go to Lilburn Home brew.
Yup. It's called Buford beer and wine supply and its located in the old town Buford area. Like I said, its a great store. The owner is retired and as he says, "the store gives me something to do other than watch Fox News." Great prices, great selection, and great service. I have one in Gainesville, but the owner was rude, he has RIDICULOUS prices, and I just overall didn't like it.
