Stopped in on Duffman’s recommendation. Selection was surprisingly good, though there were no longer any beers from DFH, Stone, Allagash, Cantillon, or Rodenbach. Instead I found 2 varieties of Mikkeller, 2 varieties of Jolly Pumpkin, the Koff Porter, the Carnegie Porter, plenty of Deschutes, a few Rauchbiers, a de Dolle, a lone Wolavers, plus a generally broad selection of other microbrews. Not sure about the service, in the 20 minutes or so I was picking out beer, no-one so much as came by to ask if I was finding what I was looking for, nor was any help forthcoming for a carry-out. For the size of the town the selection is unreal, and apparently rotating, being as Duffman and I saw completely different selections when we were there. Bonus points for being just around the corner from Great Northern Brewing also.

After several stops at local liquor stores without any success in finding micros or craft beers of any kind, we were finally advised to try this place. What a pleasant surprise! It is a combination food market, wine shop, and beer store, and they do all three things well. The beer selection was astonishing considering the size of the town, and more importantly the quality was top-notch. Nearly all local micros were found here (at least the ones you can buy in bottles), as well as gems from across the states such as Dogfish Head (6 varieties), Wolavers, Deschutes, Stone, Allagash, Jolly Pumpkin, and many others that I can’t immediately recall. They also had a great selection of quality imports, including several styles from Cantillon, Rodenbach Grand Cu, some nice saisons from France, some Olfabrikken (sp?), Kulmbacher eisbock, and many others I cannot bring to mind. We blew our budget for the week here, and it is a bonus that they do not mind if you mix and match 6-packs! Very friendly helpful staff who insisted they help carry our giant stash to our trunk. If you are in Whitefish and want to find top quality beer with a decent selection, this place is an absolute must! My rating numbers are based on the size of the town that this place is in there are bigger stores in bigger cities, but this is a wonderful local treasure chest of beer.
