Everytime I ask for something I get the same answer. I've never been to Marks, but I can tell you the other one near me is USELESS for my needs. Hopefully with me not getting FLAMED :huh: I am not defending them as it's their choice to be HB Shop operators, just throwing this up for discussion and we will see where it ends up. I guess this is your opportunity to tell the retailers what you want in a HB Shop or say where you need a HB Shop as I suspect they may be a dying breed.Īpart from this forum and similar ones there are few places you can go to have a detailed in-depth brew discussion, keeping in mind that HB Shop owners do not get payed for talking to mash brewers for hours on end. I have been to a few HB shops around the country and some are very very ordinary and I wonder how they survive. We are very lucky here in Newcastle having Marks Homebrew stocking all the brewing bits for basic kit brewers all the way up to AG brewers and commercial and offering quality advice + an on-line/mail order service. My opinion has changed slightly from when I first started brewing where I was just after the best deal, to now where I still want a good deal but now see the value in having a good local to shop at. I am not looking to start one but am interested to find out what sort of things Homebrew shops could be doing better or stocking to better service the brewing community, or what services your local does or does NOT offer. Interested to hear peoples opinions of their local homebrew shop.
