mattmc1973 | Insane selection, they have everything. But they are ovepriced. $24.99 for a six-pack of Bells Expedition Stout, which is $12.99 at Champanes. $9.99 for a 22oz Stone Imperial Russian Stout, which is $4.99 at Champanes. You get the picture. But if you want that tough-to-find beer, this is the place to go.

| jerrytimes | This place has an outstanding selection. If you want it, they probably have it. They do overcharge on many beers here though. I picked up a 12 pack of Leinenkugels and they wanted 19.99 for it. Everywhere else it’s 9.99-12.99 tops.

sliffy | Came in here due to a recommendation from the "other" site. The selection was astounding, after a quick grab at a batch 7000 six pack only to see my friend grab a batch 6000, we moved on to all kinds of vintage bells stouts, some retired arcadia offerings, vintage bigfoot’s, vintage great divide. And all kinds of other rare hard to find offerings. This will be a must stop for me every time I’m in the area.

Ibrew2or3 | Crowded over stocked store. Very nice selection. One of the better selections I’ve seen anywhere. Lots and lots of singles. Very nice array of English, German, Russian and other European beers including vintage stuff. Excellent selection of Michigan brews. I was really hoping to find Bells Batch 6000 here but they had both 7000 and 5000. Although I don’t remember seeing the older one. Scored a Great Divide beer I’d never seen, Maverick Series Imperial Stout 2003. The vintage beers were a tad pricey but I figure that’s to be expected. The rest of it was on par with Bello Vino I was at this morning in Ann Arbor. Champanes Wine Cellar remains the best prices I’ve seen in the Detroit area. But if you want singles then Bello Vino and Embassy are a much better choice. A must stop on my next visit to MI.

mds | Crazy line-up of beers that you won’t find elsewhere in this part of Michigan (perhaps elsewhere, but I haven’t been). Plenty of retired Bells stuff ($$ expensive) and Unibroue La Gaillarde (cheap, but OLD). Lots and lots of selection of regionals but mostly in six packs and very costly. $30/6-pack of Bells >2 years old is a little bit nutty and lots of imports were >$15. I wouldn’t go here regularly but if I really wanted something special I know I could stop by here and find something reasonably rare. Plus it’s only a 1-minute detour off of the I-94.

lunaticharness | impressive, like a smaller midwest hi-time cellars (without the massive amount of wine) but better, overpriced a bit, but where are you going to find bigfoot 2000-05 in a store in michigan? same for the bells batch beers 3000-7000, lots of gift packs too definitely check it out
in between gratiot and I-94 on 12 mile

ClarkVV | Pretty ridiculous selection here. Best I’ve seen, by far, in Michigan. Most U.S. available Cantillons, though they are horribly overpriced ($20 for a 750mL). Rodenbach Alexander, and old Grand Cru. All of Bells (including retired stuff, batch 4k, oatmeal, susies, etc), Dark Horse, Founders. Tons of six packs of retired Michigan brews. Old Colorado stuff, Three Floyds. Tons of old chapeau, cherish, st louis fruit lambics. Chapeau faro and gueuze from the early 90s. Abbaye des Rocs bottles from early 2000’s. Tons of Canadian micros, including St. Ambroise pale and oatmeal. Chinese beers and all sorts of crazy pale lagers. Tons of other lambics and just tons of old Belgians with Best Before dates in the early-mid 90s. Prices are incredibly high, but sometimes, it’s worth it.

SuIIy | A great selection although prices seem to be a little on the high side. Tons of belgians and lots of other imports along with a huge selection of local michigans and other american brewers.

Eyedrinkale | The best liquor store I have come across in the Detroit area so far. Vintage beers can be found if you just dig around a bit. Old Bell’s stouts such as Susies and Harry McGills are still on the shelves.
