I recently took the short trip down to Toledo from SE Michigan solely based on these reviews, and to finally get my hands on some Three Floyds. Well, I was dissappointed when there was no TF to be found, but it wasn’t a complete failure. I did pick up some Left Hand, Warbird, and Bear Republic, which you can’t get in Michigan. oh well, better luck next time I suppose.

Stopped in here a couple times the last few weeks, brought back memories of the Mom and Pops Hardware store my dad took me to when I was a kid except this place has everything, including grocery area, meat counter, etc. Nice selection of beers not available in Michigan plus alot of stuff from MI, many singles are available plus six paks, help is friendly, only negative is that I saw some bottles were waaay past their due date, so, look for a Best By Date.

Was working in the Toedo area a couple of weeks ago and I got to stop here. this is one of those soup to nuts stores, reminded me of a old country store but on a larger scale. you can get stuss to remodle your kitchen to getting some great beers to help you through the process. Beer selection was very good, got a few beers I can not get in Mi. Talked with a gentleman at the wine section and he was very helpful .The prices are a little higher for the beers I can get in Mi. but not to bad. This is one you should go to if in Toledo

I was very impressed with this store. I went in looking for carbon monoxide detectors and was pleasantly surprised with the selection. Great selection of American Craft brews, Bells, Stone, Weyerbacher, Magic Hat, Great Lakes, Thirsty Dog to name a few. Most sixers were available in singles as well. Lots of 3 Floyd bombers as well. Staff was friendly and they gave me a printed up beer style guide and beer trivia.

Best place in the area for special ordering beers, as they will do all the legwork to find and get the beer, then call you when it arrives. The selection isn’t the best in town, that would be Joseph’s Beverage Center, just up the road, but what they lack in stock they make up for in service. Jim, one of the beer/wine guys, is over the moon about Bell’s oberon Ale, making me question his overall knowledge, as I see Oberon as an also-ran summer wheat offering, and can’t talk too much about the taste details of most of the beers, but he’s a wine guy at heart. Overall, the Andersons folks are more knowledgeable and accommodating than the guys at Josephs, but the lack of selection can hurt if you just want a sixer of something new.

Wow, awesome selection for a mini Wall-Mart type place. What brands don’t they carry? I remember seeing Bells, Weyerbacher, Stone, Left Hand, Thirsty Dog, Great Lakes, DFH, Saranac, Founder’s, Lagunitas, Flying Dog (including BA Gonzo for $15), lots of Three Floyds, and many more regionals I’m not too familiar with. No vintage stuff and nothing all that rare. But solid selection. Well over half the beer was available as singles. I was sorry to leave so many behind. Beer is located next to the meat counter and across the aisle from lawn and garden. So I’ve got excellent beers in front of me, raw meat behind me and plant fertilizer odor in the air all around. Oh, and this was at 7:15am. Odd experience. One beer they’re missing, being that this is OH, is Alesmith. I found some over at Joseph’s Beverage Center. OH mission accomplished.

One of two places that SE MI folks need to make a trip to at least once or twice a year. Access to many beers you can’t get in MI: Three Floyds, Alesmith, Stone, Weyerbacher, and a few others. Good selection of singles. Friendly and knowledgable staff who have been willing to place individual orders and take a phone number to notify you when something comes in. Styles once got a phone call out of the blue several months after requesting a phone call if Dreadnaught ever came in.

I grew up in Northwest Ohio and return there for awhile after college as well. The Andersons is probably one of the best places in NW Ohio to buy bottled beer. Lots of micros and imports, but not nearly the variety available at other stores (e.g. Joseph’s Beverage Center right down the road), but they do have nearly everything singled out. Mostly mainstream brands, but sometimes I have found one-offs of rarer stuff (e.g. Jolly Pumpkin Madrugada Obscura). They also have some good special around the holidays though. This location has much more beer and a better selection than the other locations I have visited.

Well it is a large market but the beer selection was above average, able to get singles and most Jolly Pumpkin brews. A one stop place for beer, cheese, bread and munchies. Will visit again next time I am driving through.

A fine store in Toledo. A veritable blessing to Michigan folks close to the border. Available was Victory, the much wanted Alesmith Imperial stout, Stone products and other sundries nnot available in the Great Satan of Michigan. Service was great! &quo;Did you find everything you wanted? If not let me order if for you and call you if it is available.&quo; Highly recommended. Kudos.
