We found this place by chance as we had been trying to go to another store in Providence but it was closed when we went there, so we did a Google search and this place popped up. When we opened the door we were hit with a mob of people tasting homemade wine. The owner of the place came over to us and was very (make that extremely) friendly. As my brother is a beer brewing novice, the owner answered all of his questions and seemed genuinely interested in helping my brother. My brother found all of the ingredients he was looking for and they even ground up the grains that my brother bought. The owner (sorry, don't know his name) kept on asking us to try some wine as all of the wine was brought in by those in the store, so we finally acquiesced and tried what I can say reminded me of a cheap red house wine that you'd get at a local restaurant. I'm not knocking it at all though because I don't know one thing about making wine!
If you need brew making supplies, or wine making supplies, or just want to meet a group of really friendly people, this is your place. I'm slowly finding that there are some real gems outside of the major shopping districts in this area. read more
