JohnE9 Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 Hey Bruce, Why don't you buy online? Delivered to your door and shipping costs probably cheaper than buying petrol and driving all over the place to find supplies which may or may not be on the shelves. From the old codger, always on the lookout for cost cutting angles.[innocent] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Del Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 maaaaate.. im 10 km from the brewery and my "woolworths" is lucky to have draught, lager, pale and BE1 on the shelf! ive never seen any of the " non standard" brews on the shelves anywhere apart from a brew store! head to a local home brew store..

Biermoasta Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 Try BigW if there is one nearby. My local BigW has all the Original and International kits, as well as the brew enhancers and dry malt extract. The only thing they don't have are the Thomas Coopers kits, however I believe that only homebrew stores stock these. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
php Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 My nearest (20km) BigW and Kmart stock bugger all, usually just some basics, but they **** all over the local/online blokes for prices. I stock up with what they have and suck up and get the rest from the localish brew shop or online. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnE9 Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 Hi all, As I have transport difficulties, I tend to go for the online shopping option. I have found online shopping at the Coopers store to be quick, cheap and ALL of the products are available. If you need other stuff, like yeasts and hops, there are plenty of mail order Home Brew stores on the 'net. They too, offer excellent service and products. Just one word of caution. I never buy anything from overseas retailers because of shipping costs, customs issues etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

c4272 Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 I needed more brew kits as I was getting down on my stash of beer, I brew several at a time, one after the other, and lay them down as I have 200 odd 750m bottles, varying in age from 50 year old pickaxe bottles. Went to Woolworths to find that home brew supplies seem to have been de-listed by my local stores (3). Didn't something like this happen a few years ago? I recall sending a letter of complaint to Coles. Dan Murphy lists Coopers brew kits, but then they are unavailable in store. Can someone advise stockists who actually carry the supplies.

PB2 Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 Our brewing products are yet to be available in all Dan's stores. The kerfuffle with Coles saw them reinstate our products into 200 stores across the country. Not a perfect result but better than nothing... The power is with the consumer - if you are not happy, contact the head office and make a complaint. At the present, Big W is the "go to" store for Coopers DIY Beer products. Also, brewing specialist stores and online. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
