A hidden gem in Willimantic. A huge selection of different things and an extremely knowledgeable and friendly owner. So grateful I stopped in and can't wait to come back for more mead making supplies.

Excellent prices, and most importantly, knowledgeable staff, willing to give solid advice, no matter your skill level in home brewing.

I use this place in emergency only - like if I need something fast and can't wait for mail - order. First time I went I got there an hour before posted closing time and the place was dark. (15 mile drive) Recently I went there and proprietor had some possibly socially-challenged buddies hanging out with him. I was having problems with stuck fermentation which I shared and he proceeded to tell me I didn't know what I was talking about. He called me out on facts that I know to be true, stating he had been making wine since he was five years old . The whole conversation had a demeaning and unfriendly feeling. And his friends were pretty sullen, too. On top of the unfriendly treatment some of the products I bought that day had a very-soon expiration date - presumably because he doesn't sell much product. I have been making wine from dandelions to pumpkins to apple and grapes and I DO know what I'm doing. I don't like the way I was treated and like I said earlier, I won't go there unless I have to.

Went to Zok's for champagne yeast and had a great conversation about the Asian Pear wine we're making as well as different aspects of fermentation and food and different cultures. Great shop, great talk.

Zok is the man you want in your corner when it comes to brewing anything but especially beer. Always has the answer to my questions and concerns. Any beer characteristics I throw at Zok he can come up with the formulation. Great deals on beer gear, grain, yeast and hops.

Great shop. Selection and service outstanding. If Zok doesn't have it, you don't need it.

Zok is always knowledgeable and patient with questions from beginners. I've been brewing and have worked with zok for years but I am always learning more when I swing by his shop. He also always gives his customers very personal treatment and attention.

Great place to get pretty much anything you need for home brewing, even if you didn't know you needed it.

One of the best places around. Zok and my father go way back, and when I learned that he had a shop close by, I had to go. Being a homebrewer myself, and with my father being a former brewmaster (Cottrell Brewing Company), I know what to look for as far as a good shop goes.Zok is outstanding, kind, and very knowledgeable. His prices are fair and he always has what I'm looking for. If you're in the area and need some supplies, look no further than Zok's!
