Yup, it's called Incredibrew.  I've brewed there several times, a few 
with md, a few with friends.  My only complaints about it are:

	- they force you to use 22oz bottles, I like 12oz.	
	- they use forced CO2 for carbonating, I prefer using 
	  primining sugars, which results in less CO2.

Other than that, it's not bad.  As for the price, well, it depends 
upon what you brew.  I've left the place having spent $200 between 
the beer and bottles, and I've walked out for as little as $50.  And 
I always leave with far more beer than I can drink!  I still have 
about a case or so from the last time I brewed there, and that was 
over 2 years ago :)

   but I'm really actively waiting for all my problems to go away.
