Hi fellow brewers. I'm very interested in views from the people around the Tamworth area in NSW as to whether they'd use a store that was more orientated to the brewer and distiller of craft products than cordials and kits.
I am very close to a descision on a new store here. I would like to have a place where i can show off my existing range of Stilldragon products to commercial Distillers and have products they use and also have a place that would cater to discerning home brewers and stock kegging gear, brewing equipment, grain and hops as well as a selection of yeasts and other supplies.
As far as i know there is not a store between Newcastle and Brisbane that offers the kind of gear we need, and although my chosen location will not allow me to stock the huge variety of stuff that those two stores have, i will be able to stock some base and specialty grains, have a service to crack them, biab bags, pots and other important stuff as well as properly stored yeasts and hops.
I am after views on the following questions like how frequently you visit Tamworth now, would you visit more frequently if there was a store here like that?
What sort of basic products would you like to see stocked in your local brew store?
Would you go to the trouble of visiting a brew store and paying a couple of dollars extra over supermarket prices for your kits?
Would you be more likely to visit a brew store that had a range of allgrain equipment rather than one that had only kits and essences?
Any other comments or questions you may have?
