I have three LHBS new me. I recently have a new favorite (#3 below), primarily because I have recently upped the volume of my all-grain brew days and the owner is willing to help me quite a bit with the price of 2-row.
LHBS 1: nice shop owner, but everything is overpriced, to the extreme. I shopped here for my first kit, telling myself that they extra 30% would come back to help me in terms of advice, etc. Grain is the same price no matter how much you buy, even 50+ lbs. He is selling Wyeast Smack packs at $11.50 a piece. Brewing two 10-gallon batches, I was buying 4 of those and it "hurt coming out" (from the reaming). The one thing I really liked for a while, was that he was "super-modifying" a Blichmann Top-Tier and was going to show me how to do the same over time. I like the idea of the DIY classes and guidance.
LHBS 2: The shop owner drives me crazy. I told him I wanted to do all-grain. He told me I was wrong for wanting to. I told him I wanted to buy a conical, he told me I didn't want to. If he had taken a minute to get to know me, to know that I like to spend money on GEAR and I have disposable income to do so, you would realize that this is the best thing for me. Thousands of $$s later, LHBS #1 got my revenue. Last week I needed to buy a stir bar and he pulled the attitude of, "people buy those ONLINE, when they buy their STIR PLATES THERE." I am sorry that people look to get good prices on commodities online, but that is life. Spare me your attitude, pal. I am never going back there again.
LHBS 3: my new go-to. I was doing 2 10-gallon batches of high gravity beers this weekend. This means 60+ lbs of 2-row. He gave it to me at the sack price and crushed it for me at no additional charge. It was around $0.75 per pound, as opposed to $1.70 that the previous shop owner was charging. Yeast and hops are reasonably priced and he has nice specialty malts that a lot of other smaller shops don't keep in stock, like Special Roast. This shop owner also runs a nano brewery out of his shop and when I spend a few bucks, he gives me a bomber of his latest libation to take home. SWEET!
