I visited two local stores. I won't get into names as these were my first two, ever.
The first one I visited was out of a farm store that I do recall hearing about in the past but it is across town. Nothing special- prices seemed okay but definately not hardcore but they do grind the grain you purchase. The second one is part of a food supply type store downtown and I was most excited about. Again prices were pretty good but found out they don't grind the grain you buy. Is this normal?
Also this same store does have some kits made by local Brewers so I might check those out after more investigation. They also offer every so often some brewing classes for free. It didn't hit me off as totally awesome and I don't think the owners are Brewers nor the employees. Hopefully I can meet some local homebreeers or beginners.
Both places for extract seemed outdated and not the brands found online. So I doubt I purchase there and can tell turn over. Grains, hops, and yeast should be ok.
