"Philly Homebrew Outlet, South Kensington by Melissa McFeeters. Whether you're an ambitious homesteader or a nerdy beer enthusiast, Philly Homebrew Outlet has got you covered. They sell all sorts of beer brewing supplies—from equipment to ingredients—and they sell winemaking, cheesemaking and kombucha kits as well. If you need a hand before jumping right in, they also offer a variety of classes and workshops."
Friendly staff. Great supplies for beer, wine and kombucha projects. Purchased a kit and was able to brew in a bag to make a New England Style IPA.

Started as a novice and they are helping hone my beer making skills.These guys are very knowledgeble and helpful. They always have great beers to sample and can build you recipe. They put on some great brewing events through out the year also, fun for all!

Incredibly insightful staff. I went in with a couple questions about a brew I currently have going regarding yeast really activation when racking to secondary on a fruit puree and answered everything in detail.
Since I was there already, I tried to gather ingredients for a clone of a beer I wanted to try. While they didn't have everything (impossible to stock every ingredient for every brew) one of the staff worked with me to try to find equivalents. Only to be 1 Oz short of one certain hop (very large hop amount).
While I didn't buy the ingredients, I did get other supplies to prepare for my brew. Will definitely take my future business there and want to attend their brew club meetings.

Between this and their West Philly location, you can be a fairly satisfied home-brewer. Their staff is knowledgeable, and it's a very casual atmosphere. I have been disappointed once or twice in my three years of going here due to them running out of stock from time to time, but that's a rarity in my experience.

This is a great shop, with a large selection grain, hops, yeast, and gear. Jimmy, Nick, and Tom are knowledgeable and helpful. They've helped me fine tune recipes and fix mistakes on multiple occasions.
The store also carries a wide variety of DIY food making kits for sausages and cheeses.
I cannot recommend this store strongly enough.

If you want good, detailed info about brewing equipment or the brewing process, this is your place. If you want to hang out and connect with other Philly homebrewers, this is your place. If you want to drink some fresh homebrew from the tap, this is your place. Super-informed, but not snobby; very welcoming and helpful. I won't be shopping anywhere else for my home brewing needs.
