I used to live in Orlando right down the road from this place. I was just starting to get into beer and then I graduated and moved down south. I can’t believe that I didn’t take full advantage of this place. It’s got a lot of great stuff. Definitly check it out.

This is a nice enough store with good size and space for everything. They seem to be trying to expand the amount of beer they have. The have a display in the front and one row of beer plus a wall of coolers with some craft stuff in a couple of the coolers. The could really do more with the space that they have though. The beers have ratebber tags on them, but I don’t think the staff even knows what it means. The service isn’t great at all. They have a pretty good selection and get some special release stuff which is cool. Their prices are decent, but are kind of high on the singles. Overall this is probably your best bet if you aren’t close to Knightly Spirits.

This place is solid. I’m re-rating based on many visits now as I live right down the road. 450 bottles advertised and they appear to be expanding a little. Good selection, decent pricing, some of the staff seems to know their stuff. All in all this is a nice stop, especially if on the east side of Orlando. I’d certainly rank this below Knightly but I think this place gets underrated because it’s not Knightly and I can’t think of too many other retailers in the area that are better.

Decent place to get some good beer. I work two blocks away and sometimes take friends to this store to help them beer shop if they can’t get across town to Knightly. Staff is friendly.

Nice enough place. The owner knows his stuff, but most of the other employees don’t know the beer. Very nice selection. Not as much as Knightly’s, but great stuffmoderately priced. They have also well priced glassware, $3 for all standard sizes. If I can’t get to Knightly’s this is my stop.

Nice store with good selection. Well organized.

Not a bad store, a fairly large selection, laid out neatly in one aisle of warm singles and coolers. Some of the bottles seemed dusty with faded labels on my first visit but things have been getting better, been getting alot of new stock lately. But there’s plenty of really nice surprises in here, such as some Lagunitas, the JW Lees cask aged bottles, Ommegedon, etc. For me, this is convenient to my work place and I’ll stop here when I have the chance, but when I have a bigger budget to spend, I’ll be heading to Knightly.

Very good selection. Probably have 100+ singles, including some stuff I’ve never seen before. They have all the standards (Rogue, DFH, etc.) but also some very unique and limited release stuff. Pricing was average. I picked up some DFH Fort, Fullers Vintage, Hebrew Genesis 10:10, Ayinger Celebrator, and Calva Reserva. They had a bunch of other stuff I wanted to get, but my fridge is overflowing, so I’ll have to go back. They even had RateBeer tags on some of their beers. Overall, very good store.

Great selection. Pretty much have everything you could want that’s available in the area with few exceptions. I’ve encountered a handful of workers and one is very polite and helpful and the rest are laid back/indifferent depending on how you look at it. They have some good cheap glassware too. A must stop if you’re in the area.

One of my favorite local places to buy beer. A great selection that seems to just keep getting better and better. They always seem to keep up with whats new in the area. A very solid store and a great alternative to Knightly Spirits.
