Where to get ingrediants in Ontario Canada

[DSeibel]

Hey,

I am having trouble finding suppliers in southern Ontario. I live in Kitchener and there is nothing around here. I can order online obviously however would like something local. Anyone on here know?

You don't have a local DIY store for Wine/HB? I live in BF hicks ville Northern ON and I have 3 mom and Pops wine making stores and 5 brew your own shops that let me buy extracts from. Super stores also have and isle that sells the easy coopers kits.

I live in Ottawa right down town and there are 4 places local.

My fav is the wine house right beside the mcdonalds on bank street right past south keys mall. It looks like a vintage house.

But as I said there are about 4 huge ones 20 min from eachother you can pick from.

I searched all over for online Canadian distributors, and nothing seems to match the overall selection of several USA distributors. I just like to point and click and have it show up on my doorstep.

From a few select hops, to improper stored hops, I like the broader USA selection. Sorry, but Canadian distributors just can't seem to get it right, if you want the whole spectrum of selections and quality. I don't want to shop at one store for hops, another for grains, another for yeast - a one stop shop, point and click.

Canadian distributors should not take this as a personal bash - just raise the bar, that's all.

** to be fair when summer is here and the farmers have fresh stuff at the market i grab a bag or 2

I know of a place in Hamilton, and a pretty good one in Brampton. I know they arent that close to you, but the one in brampton has an online store.
If you're interested in either of these shoot me PM and ill hook u up.

I just placed an order yesterday (my first order through them). I bought some hop rhizomes, grains, and irish moss. They're in southern Ontario.

Awsome guys....thanks for the great info yet again. I have been a member on many forums before....anything from fishing, fitness, hockey, computers, etc, etc...I must say this one takes the cake for having a great, tight knit, fast responding community. I only hope that soon I will be able to repay the site with actually giving advice instead of taking. Thanks again...I just placed an order with Canadian Homebrew Supplies.

Cheers !!

Dave
