San Francisco Brewcraft

If you live nearby, I can understand the benefits of popping over to grab something. But every time I head to Brewcraft to stock up for a weekend brew (make sure to not go at opening since they're sometimes late to open), an ingredient that I'm looking for is out of stock. The staff has been helpful suggesting alternatives but they often involve changing my recipe. I've also had difficulty getting equipment there due to their very limited selection and stock. I asked if they could order something in for me, even if I was willing to pay for shipping and they refused! I'm all for supporting local and independent businesses but it's been hard to be satisfied with what Brewcraft is offering.

Truly a living gem in the City. If you want to learn to make beer, this place is your first stop. Been coming here for close to five years at this point and they are yet to let me down when looking for a recipe suggestion for my random brew ideas. Not to mention, their always stocked on any ingredients or odd-end pieces of equipment you need for your next under taking. If you have the time, get to know the staff. They're an incredible wealth of knowledge and a lot more educational than a random internet forum.

This is the think tank of brewing in SF. Old school in all the best ways. Go there, smell the grains, ask tons of questions, and learn from the Masters.
