I only buy liquid yeast online in the Winter. Summers are just too hot to get reliable delivery here.
Having said that, I usually use Great Fermentation or MoreBeer.
If it hasn’t been mentioned yet, Label Peelers and Ritebrew are great online options. Yes, prices have gone up for supplies and also shipping but it’s still pretty good. I once got a 50-lb bag of Briess Pilsner malt for $29 and no, it wasn’t 20 years ago. Maybe 4-5 years ago.
So I’m about ready to start ramping up my fall brewing schedule and I’m wondering if anyone in MN can tell me the best way to secure sacks of base malt (2-Row, Pilsner, etc) as it just doesn’t make sense to have a sack of grain shipped when we have Rahr right in our backyard.
Now that my two sons have gone off to college it’s probably time to join a homebrew club to see if any of the clubs have figured out a solution to losing our key LHBS.
I don’t have a LHBS anywhere near me so it’s totally online. I was using NB but recently switched to Ritebrew. Definitely saves me some cash.
Ritebrew has a good (not great) selection, but their prices usually beat most of the online shops. I try to give them my business when I’m not looking for something they don’t carry.
