Poplar Creek Brewing Arrives!

Augusta now has a local homebrew supply store! Grains, Hops, Yeast, and more...

Saturday marked the opening of Poplar Creek Brewing (PCB) on South Belair in Martinez.  As the CSRA's first homebrew storefront in a long while, it was not surprising to see brewers inside shopping before the doors even officially opened.




If you have ever run out of an ingredient, or forget to order yeast, you understand the value of having a local place you can run to on the quick.  Owner Wylie and his wife understand this, saw the local need, and took the entrepreneurial plunge.

Although just getting started, PCB offers everything from the aforementioned grains (bulk or measured and crushed on site), hops (40+ varieties), and yeast (20+ varieties of Wyeast), to brewing and kegging equipment, and extract kits and ingredients.

Brewers lined up early!



So if you are a CSRA homebrewer, I highly encourage you to stop by and support this new local business the next time you are planning to brew.  PCB can be found at 212 S. Belair Rd in Martinez, right next door to Azteca Maya.
