    "Excellent shop with a good choice of beer and wine kits on the shelf, the lady that served me was very helpful and only too pleased to answer my questions.

    After recently getting back into homebrewing after nearly 20 years away, I'm glad I found this shop and lucky that it is very local to me."

    "I recently bought the starter kit and was impressed by the range of products available to buy. The member of staff that I spoke to knew the process inside out and was more than helpful in pointing me in the right direction.

    Can't wait to start brewing; I will be back, thanks!"
