A much upgraded and (relatively) new location at Kedzie and Addison with a better homebrew focus, including extensive malt, hops and yeast selections. Also, they brew right in the store and have brewing classes. The staff is knowledgable and helpful, which is also a welcome upgrade from the old location. My only beef: they can run out of hops between shipments so plan ahead or be prepared to tweak your recipe if you're shopping last-minute.
