What a great experience. Bryan went out of his way to help me out with a very hard to find item. What a friendly and helpful guy. Customer service is alive and well at this shop! 10/10 , I have found my new shop!
They were helpful and welcoming NOT condensedining to a noob. Pretty good experience overall, kinda felt rushed so I will definitely be back again to spend more time browsing.
Friendly knowledgeable and fun, if you need it they probably have it.
This shop has all of your fermenting needs. They have wine making supplies, beer brewing supplies, soda making supplies, and cheese making supplies. They also have a refrigerator with Taps on it with samples of beer! My dad makes wine that is why he goes but I go there for the bread making classes and cheese making classes.
Great staff! Excellent place for home fermentationists of all sorts!
So easy to deal with and same day pickup is excellent! I've called a few times with non-product questions (would a cider base, juices, or extracts be better for my cider, etc.) and they've always been happy to talk. Prices are way better than the mail order place I was using. I'm so glad to have such a great place local to me!
I've been using Great Fermentations as my primary online supplier for my homebrewing (mead not beer) for a couple of months. Everything I've received from them has arrived in great condition, and was packed with care. Even with some shipping delays due to Covid warned about on their website, all my orders have arrived in a very timely fashion. I'm am very pleased with their service.
Great place to learn about home brewing and purchase all your supplies. They have a wide variety of fermentation kits. They also have a great knowledge of the brewing proceess, are very helpful and willing to answer all your questions. I took a beginners brewing class there that i thought was very good. I highly recommend this place!
Very knowledgeable staff helped me to stock up on beer making supplies
today was the second or third time i have called this place in about 2or3 years, the phone conversations we have had are great and help full, by the way i live about 3 hours away from INDY. i have family that goes through INDY from time to time, so i place an order on the phone and they pick it up for me. It works out great and at my pace._______________________________________________________________
foot note: when putting your system together get. get BIGGER parts than you need now it will GROW.
i am starting to brew 10gl now but able to go 15 almost now._______________

They have everything you need to brew beer or wine. Great helpful staff.
Everything you need to start being your own beer or to get even deeper into the hobby. The whole staff is very friendly and knowledgeable.
The premiere place in Indy to get all your fermentation supplies and a wealth of general fermenting knowledge.
Helpful employees, and a wonderful selection! Will definitely have to shop here whenever I'm in need of supplies again!
I always come here for my brewing supplies and the classes are great!
Everyone here knows their stuff. I've been coming here ever since I started brewing. They carry some great recipes and all the equipment you need. It's the best brewing supply store in Indy.... It's also the only brewing supply store in Indy.
Took a class in sourdough starter making. The instructor was great and the bread was tasty!
All the supplies you need to make awesome home brew!
Staff is VERY knowledgeable!
They have exactly what I need! Great place for the wine maker or aspiring barman in your family.
This place is a thing of beauty. Every employee is more than willing to go out of their way to make you smile. They have suggestions for your brewing needs and backup plans incase those don't work. You can even call them on the phone and they will help you however they can. The prices are a tad higher than most online stores but I don't mind because I get to talk to a human when spending my $$$. Go check them out, you won't be disappointed!
Found the very thing I ve been looking for all over the place in seconds here! Great staff and knowledge will definitely be a regular
Good selection. Friendly and helpful staff. Clean facility
Incredible place. Best Homebrew store you will find. I live far away but use the mailorder option. Always great customer service.
Knowledgeable staff. Lots of options for homebrewing. Recommend
Great people, variety of supplies and willingness to offer good advice. Fast shipping when you can't make it to the store. Makes me happy to just go in and browse. Wish I lived closer to take advantage of the classes they offer.
Amazing Service! I ordered a Grainfather and had several issues with it. Wes at customer service got in touch with me and made sure all issues were resolved quickly and that I was completely satisfied with my purchase.
It's in situations like these that you can really weigh-in on the quality of a retailer and they have surpassed my expectations.
Cheers!

They have everything you need to get started being your own brewmaster. Very knowledgeable, informative and friendly staff, answered all the questions we had.
Its frustrating when some trys to make me brew batch in a way I chose not too. I wanted to do an all grain brew but was told I should do extract or mini mash. The old man was trying to sell me kits i didnt want. I wanted to buy a 50 lb bag the old man was talking down. I only bought 20 lbs just so i can get out and start brewing. The old man kept trying to push things on me that I didnt need nor wanted. At the end of the sale he made an inappropriate joke. I dont know if it was cause of my race or what. I am driving across town to try the other places or ordering online from here on out.
Ordered some supplies online and they accidentally sent me the grain kit instead of extract. Called and Wes got me taken care of in minutes.
Amazing people, great prices, amazing inventory. I love the people here.
Anything related to fermentation, wine cider or beer. These folks know how to help.
Awesome place! Very helpful employees with all questions!
Great Fermentations has a great variety and selection of homebrewing supplies. They were extremely helpful in finding the ingredients I needed and giving recommendations. Whether you're brewing your first batch or stepping up to more advanced brewing techniques, they will answer any questions without being condescending. I will be back!
Very friendly, knowledgeable staff. Great amount of supplies
Great place to get your brewing supplies, very knowledgeable stay that are happy to help and answer questions about brewing
This is where I get all of my brewing supplies. Very helpful and friendly staff. Stop in at Bier while you're there
Super friendly and knowledgeable staff. They always have events going on and are really trying to help grow the community.
Brandon is the most helpful guy and creator of Ivan the Terribly Delicious RED IPA.
Everything I need from supplies to really helpful staff!
Very knowledgeable and friendly. Great all around. If you're into craft beers wines and ciders this is your place.
Well stocked with everything needed for home wine and beer making. Staff knowledgeable and helpful.
The staff was very knowledgeable. One thing to note if you're getting a beer kit you must get yeast AND primer sugar. I was not made aware that the primer sugar was not included just was told I need to purchase the yeast.
They have everything you need. I'm a beginner and they took time to explain some wine makin steps for me.
Best place in town for brewing supplies. Wes is the man.
Really nice, knowledgeable guys. Would recommend this place for all you fermenting needs
Well stocked, nice people who love to talk about brewing, even if you don't spend money every visit.
Friendly service. Wide selection. Helpful classes. Personable employees.
Took their beginner class and found it very informative!
Fantastic store for the new brewer, seasoned hobbiest, and the larger scale group. Can't wait to grow my own hobby with this family owned company.
Very helpful. Went with many questions, spent only a few dollars, left with many answers and kindness.
Knowledgeable and friendly staff. Did not pressure to buy, focused on informing the home brewer
Super helpful people and they have everything you need for brewing whatever you'de like
Excellent customer service! Wide selection of items for all kinds of fermenting hobbies. You will not be disappointed when you visit.
Absolutely fantastic place. Great service! Friendly staff! Highly recommend!
Great experience. A very helpful, beautiful woman with some cool tattoos (I'm sorry I did not get her name.) guided me in purchasing the basics for my foray into creating my own Mead.
Cool store, great atmosphere, and staff was very helpful to a non homebrewing expert like myself.
Good selection, knowledgeable staff, great location.
Knowledgeable staff decent prices, this is a great place to visit if you are a brewer or are curious about becoming one
I have had a kegerator for a couple years and never knew much about caring for it and cleaning it until I visited Great Fermentations. The crew there is so helpful and willing to share best practices. They always thank me for coming in and take the time to help out!
The staff is very knowledgeable and helpful for Brewers new and old. Lots of great ingredients and equipment. It's where my hobby started and it's still where I go for all my brewing needs.
A great place to find everything you need for home brewing in Indy. The staff is very helpful on yeast selections when you are trying something new.
Friendly and helpful staff and a good choice of hops, yeast, and malts. Everything you need.
Brought in a beer with off-tastes today and they helped me identify the likely culprit and offered suggestions and detailed instructions. Really appreciate the help!
Friendly and knowledgeable staff. If you are interested in fermenting something go here first.
Excellent homebrew supply store with great selection of equipment and ingredients.
Didn't have what I was looking for but very helpful
Awesome brewing shop (beer, wine, cider, kombucha, vinegar). Reasonable prices to exchange CO2 tanks. Their kegerator fridge has free samples of local brews for the tasting.
This is an awesome place to go get brewing supplies for beer, wine, and even cheese. The staff are very helpful to both experienced and novice Brewers. If you're looking to create something specific you can ask for a recipe for a brew and they will print out instructions. You can also sign up for beer brewing classes, wine brewing classes, and cheese making classes, which I found very helpful in my exploration of fermentation. The staff is very laid back, so don't be afraid to walk right in and say hi. They have fostered the local community of Brewers, and for that, I love them.
Great service, kind and knowledgeable staff, and a fantastic location.
Doesn't matter if you are just getting started in homebrewing or wine making or been doing so for a long time, this is a great place to get your ingredients, equipment and to meet others with thr same interest!
These guys are always helpful, and will take all kinds of time to go over the ins and outs of the brewing experience. The equipment there isn't necessarily always top-of-the-line for most stuff, but they do a good job to try and pick affordable equipment that the average person is going to use. Some of the brewing kits that they make in house are often very similar to popular beers in the market, and they do a great job of explaining the flavor profiles and the ingredients and why they were chosen. Price seems to be about on par for what you would expect from a local shop. It's obviously not as cheap as Amazon or an online option, but the customer service more than makes up for the difference. I feel like I learn something new each time that I go here, and it's always a really enjoyable experience.
Very detailed and full of information for home Brewing and wine making.
