Kettles & Grains

They have a good inventory of home brewing supplies and ingredients. But the prices seem high. Brew-​on-​premises pricing also seems somewhat higher than what I have seen/​paid before. They have a nice selection of some better craft brews, for fairly reasonable prices. Growler fills (four varieties on tap) are very expensive, much more so than at so many local breweries and certainly much more expensive than at Whole Foods in Fair Lakes. No chance I would fill a growler here at these prices.

Talk about cool. This place is a completely hidden gem. When you walk in you feel welcomed, which to me is really unique for a brew supply store because typically everyone is too «cool» to answer your questions or makes me feel like an idiot. Not here though! Everyone that worked here was over the top friendly and so willing to give advice without seeming snobby. They have brew classes here and all the supplies/​chemicals/​bottles, flavors and books you could ask for. They also have some cool hot sauces, local honey, a few local brews and a service that will allow you to brew right in their store! This place is super cool to check out even if you are not a home Brewer, just go for the experience!

It is always a pleasure to go to a local store where the rest know what they are talking about and are extremely helpful. I always use this store when I can. I’m sure I’ll continue to return and learn more from this wonderful resource.

So glad to have a LHBS nearby. Have been there several times and they have a great variety of grains/​hops/​yeast. Brewed a Grapefruit Sculpin clown, a Belgian, and getting ready to brew a Belgian Quad with ingredients from their shop.
They also have a great craft beer selection. Picked up Grapefruit Sculpin, Founders Backwoods, and Schafly TIPA. The owners are incredibly knowledgable and helpful!

This place is easily one of the better brew shops that I have been able to visit. Everything was very easy to find and the staff was knowledgeable. I am on my 5^th home brew and was looking to experiment with a few things and they made it very easy to find all the ingredients that I was looking for. I will definitely be back for more supplies and info.

The Pros: Super clean place, tons of ingredients available, so you should almost certainly find what you are looking for. Not sure exactly who I dealt with today, but he was really nice, friendly and helpful. Definitely looks like a fun place to hang out and brew on prem (if you don’t have your own equipment).
Cons: the only con was the pricing. I bought 17.5 lbs of grain, 5 packs of hop pellets and 3 vials of WL California Ale yeast, and it was $ 85.I almost fell over. Comparatively speaking, when I added the exact same ingredients into a cart at northern brewer, it was $ 61, with $ 7.99 flat shipping… so just about $ 70, delivered to my door. Maybe $ 15 isn’t that big of a deal, but when you brew as much as I do, it adds up. So I don’t know that I’ll be using them for my regular brewing supply shop, but certainly nice to have them so close if I need stuff in a pinch.

Wow! How did we not know about this awesome place sooner! Went in for some basic brewing supplies, discovered a honey hole for great craft beers. I will be back and back. Nice hidden gem in Leesburg, even if your not home brewing, come out for the craft beers lol. I garentee you’ll find something here you haven’t had before

We had a corporate team event today and brewed three beers. This shop is fully stocked to support any brewing that you want to do. The set up, selection, brew kettles, chillers and storage are top notch. The team agreed that it was the best offsite they have ever done.
Separately, as a personal brewer, they have a selection just as good as any online shop and great prices. This is a family run business and they support the local craft brewing with a solid selection of brews.

Kettles and grains is everything a homebrew/​brew in premises should be. Dawn and George are very knowledgeable and really good people. They went out of their way to provide a great on premise brew experience for myself and two coworkers. The store is clean and well organized, with a great bottle selection. I really can’t say enough about what a great place this is.

This place is awesome. I tried another brew shop closer to my house and it was an incredible disappointment. But then I found this place. It is incredibly clean and well-​organized. The people working here (the owners, I believe) are not only knowledgeable about what they’re doing, they’re passionate about it and thrilled to share their knowledge and advice with you if you want it. I am just starting to learn to brew and have really enjoyed my trips to K&G. It’s 20 miles out of my way, each way, to go here rather than the shop closer to me, and I do it with a smile!

This is a great bottleshop /​home brew store! We had a bunch of great beers with the owners, and got some killer beers to bring back to oregon! I Will recommend it to friends and be back when in the area.

Didn’t know this place existed, haven’t seen any advertising. Glad I found it! Under their staff’s guidance you can brew your own beer on premises. Then come back two weeks later and bottle it. Sounds awesome.
I went it to just check the place out and walked out with 5 bottles microbrews. The selection of brews is mainly comprised of dark beers and ales. I like pilsners but couldn’t find any. They did have a pilsner recipe for the on-​site brew which I’m definitely going back to brew and give it a try.
The owner was there and she was extremely helpful. I would definitely go back to brew and purchase different microbrews.

Amazing place! Clean, well organized, very professional, friendly family atmosphere! Even their puppy smiles at you! Will be a regular stop for my home brewing supplies!

My buddy brought me here on our day off the other day, and I was stunned! This amazing place is literally within walking distance for me. The selection of beer is amazing, and I spoke with the owner about some of their products, specifically the cheeses they sell to pair with the beer. I work as a sous chef in town and we buy the same cheeses very often. They are amazing, so get them for your next party! You can even mix and match your beer purchase from a reach in cooler they have! This is great because I was able to pick up a couple of beers I had been wanting to try, but did not want to get several 6 packs for just a taste. When I left, I scooped up a handful of cards and have been giving them out like candy. Very good prices, an amazing selection, and supporting a local business will be the drive for my return business.

Great new place in Leesburg. Very nice owners and great selection.

Awesome store and atmosphere. This has to be the cleanest, most organized and modern brew store i have ever seen! The owner was there when i visited and he was super friendly /​helpful — I was asking him about IPA’s and he happened to have some from a previous brew that we sampled in the store! This guy really knows his stuff when it comes to extract brewing — he is a wealth of knowledge. The store is an awesome resource for brew supplies which would make it well worth a visit by itself. BUT WAIT THERE’S MORE! You can actually brew beer on site with Kettles & Grains! They have state of the art equipment and have everything sanitized and ready to go for anyone who wants to brew. Everything is done at the location and you can even store the wort there while it ferments. Come back and bottle it to take it home! Cool! No clean up, no sanitizing, no storing /​drying equipment, no mess! Plus, you have brew experts there the entire time to answer any questions and ensure a successful brew! I highly recommend stopping in for a visit! Great for someone who is curious about brewing all the way up to a home brew expert!

Awesome brew-​on-​premesis, homebrew, and bottle shop. They even have gourmet foods. Clean and well organized interior that has everything to get you started brewing.
Owners George and Dawn are friendly, knowledgeable, and approachable.
Ingredients are fresh and well stocked. I’m so relieved to have a place that has the ingredients I need (esp. in a pinch) as well as have a good selection of beer I can’t find anywhere else.

Wow, this place is stunning, clean, well-​organized and has everything a homebrewer could need; plus a healthy selection of hard to find craft beer in bottles, cans and bombers. The owners are extremely personable, and knowledgeable.
The only reason K&G doesn’t get five stars is the prices. Granted, your average local homebrew shop cant compete with
and the like on price. But K&G is quite a bit pricier than most shops (20% to 40%).
That said, I will definitely be back to K&G and am happy to pay a little extra to support such a nice shop.

When the store first opened, I was very excited to have a homebrew supply shop so close because we don’t have any nearby. The place is a little confusing to get to the first time because it’s in a fairly new development. The first time I walked into the store I was absolutely amazed at how beautiful the store looked. They have everything you would need for beginner to advanced homebrewers. The couple who owns the business are genuinely nice people and went out of their way to answer all my questions. This is my new go-​to place anytime I need more supplies. Cheers!
