Was here quite a while ago, but what a huge place! Clean, good selection - got some O’dell brews here along with a cool O’dells logo glass. Sold out of Stone stuff and quite a few other items listed on their website though. As barleyPops mentioned, service was non-existent.

Pdee was nice enough to drive me out to this place two years ago and I never bothered to rate it. Very solid selection with lots of beers in coolers and lots on the shelves. Plenty of stuff (I spent $150 and could have spent a lot more) not availible to me in Florida including many CO and other regional micros not availible in the southeast. Definitely worth a trip.

This place is huge! And while it is very clean and the selection is pretty good, there were some empty spaces in the coolers and on the shelves. Prior to stopping here I had checked out the TB website. Many of what is listed is NOT available at the store. While I can understand the store not having everything I was hoping to find, what was most bothersome was the service. It took me at least five minutes to find a clerk and he was of no help whatsoever! He proceeds to get another clerk, he too was of no help. My wife later refferred to them as "dumb & dumber"! I was looking for Colorado micros and these guys never once offered to look in the store room or check the computer. Fortunately another customer came over to answer my questions and he was very helpful. I was hoping to just make one liquor stop while in Denver, but ended up going to Applejack’s in Wheat Ridge and found the CO micros I was looking for.

This was my first trip to TB. Huge store, nice and clean. Great beer and wine selection. I haven’t been to the other top 2 or 3 beer stores in CO yet, but TB definitely had the largest selection I have seen. I was in a little bit of a hurry so I breezed by a lot of things that normally I would have taken more time to check out. I have a couple of "local" liquor stores that rival TB in terms of micro selection, but TB blows them away in terms of imports. Tons of belgians, germans, english, and other imports. I did not ask for any help, but was asked a couple of times if I needed any.

Thanks to pdee for driving my happy ass out to this joint! The selection was pretty good… loads of CO beers, some Stone, Avery, Hair of the Dog, and Bear Republic stuff, some rather rare imports that I don’t see around FL. The prices seemed a bit on the high side… but that was fine because I just wanted to find some new beers. The staff were all a bunch of retards! It took them at least 5min to check me out at the register… but this place is worth the stop!

this place has a decent selection, they just are to lazy to pull out of date imports [ not the kind that age,the kind that get raunchy]. The old beer manager Rick is full of it. One time he told me if it was available in the front range they could get it. I came in with a list of cases of barleywine I pickup every yeaR AND ALL HE WOULD SAY IS WE DONT HAVE IT. i EVEN OFFERED TO PAY UP FRONT! The Wine co. orders beer for me all the time but I guess Total thinks there to big to worry about $300 special orders.

One of the top stores I’ve been to. Nice wide aisles but the organization is a bit weird. Lots of stuff. A must stop when I find my self in the area.

This is a good store in a good location, but it has terrible parking. There is a huge selection of singles, a ton of Belgians and everything is in good order. They have a ton of coolers and a "pick your own six-pack" section where they give you 27% off the total price of the sixer. Most everything I desire I can find! Except they have an odd lacking of Rogue ales.

I could give a crap less about ambiance and service as long is there is a ton of beer to choose from, and there was. I was able to get lots of good Avery, Great Divide, Stone, Dogfish Head, among others. They have a great selection and good prices.

best selection in Colorado I have seen
