What does your LHBS charge for bulk grain sacks?

[brettwasbtd]

Just curious to see what everyone's LHBS is charging. I am about to get into all grain and was pleasantly surprised when I found out that 2-row was $45 for a 50# sack at my LHBS (Falls Church, VA). Checked out some other stores and was seeing prices close to $60. What do you all pay for base malt sacks?

Note: not interested in shipped costs or group buy prices. Brick and mortar only

Great Western 2-Row is $35 in PDX.

Great Western 2 Row is $30.75 in PDX @ Brewbrothers, recently lowered the prices.

Wow, my LHBS in Cincinnati charges $70 for a 50lb bag of Breiss 2-Row.

I will add that I called a store in Newark, DE where my friend goes to school, seeing if maybe I could save by having him transport it to me. They were 59.99 for Rahr 2-row... maybe I need to move to oregon!

 

[BrewNinja1]

$35 from Northern Brewer. But I only get it when I have other business in Milwaukee or a friend is coming from there. Here I dont even want to know what they charge.

 

[Synovia]

$27 or so for 2 row, $35 for anything else.

I'm only about 30 minutes from MidCountry Malt though. The real LHBS around me are charging 45 for Canadian 2 Row, and 65 -70 for anything else.

Sacks are free with the grain purchase About 40 for 2 row with my HBC discount.

The LHBS in town quoted me $100 for a 50lb sack of grain(not a stocked item either), so i made friends with a micro brewery 45 mins from here. $30 for organic Gambrius 2-row.

 

[twoodward15]

When our old LHBS was open they were charging $85for US 2 row and $100 for Maris Otter. No, I never bought it there.

 

[EO74]

$60 bries 2-row 80 marris-otter

 

[phishfood]

$40 for Canadian 2-row.

Edit: I posted the wrong price first time around.

 

[aluminumpark]

i think its around 60 for 2 row at barrys, and thats the cheapest you can get around here

 

[tamoore]

Just asked last night.

Hoppman's in Michigan.

American Pale 2 row, $55.

 

[Brewmoor]

Do you have a local brewery/brewpub nearby? I get briess 2 row for $26 from my local brewpub.

 

[passedpawn]

$42 for 55# 2-row american pale malt

 

[FromZwolle]

$27 or so for 2 row, $35 for anything else.

I'm only about 30 minutes from MidCountry Malt though. The real LHBS around me are charging 45 for Canadian 2 Row, and 65 -70 for anything else.

was the $27 from midcountry? The closest lhbs is $65 for 2-row, a little drive would be well worth a $38 difference.

 

[passedpawn]

Hell, for $27 / bag I would consider the trip

Thingsbeer (at Michigan Brewing Co. in Webberville, MI) sells 50# Briess Pilsen for $35 (they just lowered their prices on Briess malts). I think the pale malt is about the same.

 

[Homercidal]

It's about $40 at the stores around me. Although one place said they never heard of such a thing, and when I pressed them into looking again, they said they could do it for $60. I went to the brewery and the owner sold me a bag for $40.

That was for 2-row. Pilsner was about the same. Marris Otter was closer to $60 I think.

 

[jpsloan]

The website for the LHBS up here in Frederick advertises a 50lb bag of Briess 2-row for $52.00.

 

[BuzzCraft]

$34 (plus tax) for 50# Briess 2-row.

 

[nebben]

IIRC, I think it was ~$45 here in Salt Lake City for a bag of Great Western 2 row.

 

[SwampassJ]

55# sack of 2 row for 63$. Going to try and see if I can strike up anything from a local brew pub, pretty much only local brew pub.

 

[jsullivan02130]

Briess US 2-row - $54.95
Munton UK Pale (2-row) - $65.95
Munton UK Maris Otter - $82.95
Weyermann GR Pils - $56.95
Weyermann GR Munich - $56.95
Dingemans Belg Pale (2-row) - $84.95

[weirdboy]

$38 retail, I get a discount from that due to club membership.

 

[JuanMoore]

Briess 2-row is $49.50 for a 50# sack here. The LHBS offers a 10% discount to members of the local brew club, which basically covers the tax. I could get it a little cheaper from a local brewpub, but then I'd have to buy a grain mill and find a place to put it.
