Possibly the largest bottled selection in the city. Maybe even the region. They told me they have over 250 different beers. They also let you build your own 6 pack, which after tax comes out to just under $10. That makes Side Door the single best place to buy beer in the greater El Paso area. Huge selection, great price. They even carry a few Trappist beers. Last time I went they had 3 different types of Chimay as well as Trappist Rochefort 10 (that one went for ~ $6 a bottle). Great service. If they don’t have a beer, they are willing to custom order it for you if you ask. They apparently also have beer tastings too, though I haven’t been to one yet. Open till midnight every night. Right next door to State Line BBQ. According to their website, "Our address is Texas but we’re in New Mexico."
