All beers in singles; great liquor variety

by eflambord

I have been going here for years, and I keep seeing their selection expand and improve.

They now sell all their 12 ounce beers in singles! This is an amazing thing for a beer lover. It means I can buy any quantity and any variety I want. I can stick in a super-expensive rare Belgian beer in with a bunch of affordable American craft beers. Or whatever. It is just a pure delight. And did I mention that their selection of beer is astounding. I never want for variety.

They also have a remarkably broad selection of liquor for such a small space. I have been to larger package stores that have less. I have no idea how they do it, but I do know that every time I have looked for a bottle, they have not only had it, but they had it at a very good price.

My wife says their wines are great too. Not my thing, but by all reports they really know their stuff about wine too.

Unbelievable selection, wonderful staff

by lessm

This place blew me away with its selection. It seems like a small store, but somehow they found everything I could imagine from obscure whiskeys, to exotic beers, to acclaimed wines.

I'm not usually impressed by a liquor store, but this little shop has put together a great selection that keeps me coming back for their great selection of wines. And for interesting beers. And for the occasional liqueur. And if I'm not sure what I'm looking for, I just ask the staff. They really know their stuff, and have made some great recommendations.

• Pros: Selection, Customer Assistance, Convenience
• Cons: Closed Sundays, but I think that's by law

Very helpful staff

This place seems to be under new management. Anyway, the people there now are extremely helpful. I can't stress enough how important that is when you're looking for a new good bottle of wine. Ask for Robert. He seems to know *everything*.

• Pros: Knowledgeable staff, excellent selection
• Cons: No killer deals, but overall good prices
