Visited here in August 2009. Only in the area for about three days so was seeking out quality instead of quantity and I found what I was looking for. Two areas full of Midwestern micros from Minnesota, Wisconsin and Michigan. - plenty of singles and all marked well with the price (no surprises at checkout). Lots of Ratebeer shelftalkers. Prices were very reasonable - Bell’s for $1.89 - you gotta love that! Had at least two hundred different bottled selections and the staff was friendly and helpful but not overbearing. If you are in the twin cities and need to pick up a good sample of the local offerings - this is the place to go.

Very good selection, good service. helpful and knowledgeable staff. I hop between this store and Blue Max. Cellar’s is more convenient for me and the staff more helpful. Blue Max does have a better selection and slightly better prices.

Shop here quite regularly, second-best beer store in the southern suburbs after Blue Max. Nice selection, mostly of U.S. micros, loads of Bell’s, Surly, Great Divide, Southern Tier, and a wide variety of other things. OK selection of international stuff, but not going to find uniquely rare stuff here. Still, there’s a lot of foreign stuff as well. Staff is friendly and helpful, a very good stop.

Strange that this place has a different selection than the Blue Max but since the Max is across the river.... what? Lots of singles,Belgians,domestic micros and other Euro brews. Big open floorplan and well lit. Staff usually doesn’t know shit about beer.

Not as impressive as some of the other locations, with a smaller selection than Minnetonka and nothing on sale in the beer area. If you can’t make the few extra miles to Blue Max, you will be able to find some good things here. Service was friendly. The selection included a few rare beers, and it is far better than the average liquor store.
