No Matter Where You Live, Gnome Brew™ Wants To Be Your Local Homebrew Store

Get started with a hands-on class or with our Simply Brewing® Equipment & Recipe Kits. Or if you already brew, check out our full inventory or try our easy to use recipe builder to order your next brew.

Easy Ordering With Recipe Builder

The Easiest Way To Order For Your Next Brew Day

Quickly find the malts, hops, yeast, adjuncts and other ingredients you need for your next brew. Gnome Brew's Recipe Builder let's you select your ingredients by category or simply by typing in our responsive search bar.

Order Malts In Any Quantity

No need to order a full pound when all you need is an ounce. With the Recipe Builder you can order exactly as much (or as little) as you need. Order by the hundredth of a pound, or to order by the ounce, type in the number of ounces you need then press the 'o' key.

Order One Or More Recipe At A Time

Malts for each recipe you order will be milled (unless you specify otherwise) and packaged together for your convenience. You can order just one recipe, or for your convenience, you can order several at a time and pick them up together. Order a couple recipes at a time to take advantage of free shipping for orders of $69 and up.

Order For Pickup, Local Delivery or Free Shipping

Order online with ease then choose the most convenient option to receive your order. Local Delivery is available each Friday evening for just $7.99 and shipping is available to anyone in the contiguous US for FREE for orders $69 and above, or a flat rate of just $8.99 for anything else. And in store pickup in store is always available for free, of course.
