Tiny liquor store with one large shelve dedicated to craftbeer (singles) as well as some more common beer in the fridge. Only two minutes walk from the excellent Triumph brewpub. I did find a few more obscure locals (Barley Creek and such) that I didn’t see at the good New Jersey stores. Friendly service. HUGE WARNING: I seriously doubt the freshness of some of the beers I bought there. Some tasted like old farts but with so many American micros not putting dates on bottles I cannot know if these were bad bottles or old bottles. You’ve been warned.

Decent enough if you’re a college kid in the area. Nice prices too. That’s about it though. Not worth going out of your way.

Smallish place right on Nassau St. As people have mentioned there is only one small section of singles, but at least what is there is craft and although small is pretty well selected. The only reason I would ever stop in here though is if I couldn’t get anywhere else. There’s no way there’s 150 different SKUs in here either... maybe 50.

I visited this place, and found the singles in the corner. As john_adam2002 says there are no sixes, but I did enjoy the six I created with the singles - some finds. The guy behind the counter is a character - he’ll help you with most anything, but he did have a problem getting me a receipt, which I like to use to price beers per ounce. This wasn’t that big of a deal though, because each bottle had a sticker on it. Nice little place, though I like Community in Princeton a bit better.

1 wall of singles. No sixes to speak of. Victory, Troegs, and Dogfish Head to name a few. Nothing really special about this one.

Easily the best of the three liquor stores I visited on Nassau, and the only one to offer singles. Small but crafty beer selection is tucked away on a shelf in the back left. Smutty, Yards, Weyerbacher, Victory, etc. A few weird rarities from PA and VT I’d not seen before. Even had some dusty old Baltus, which (in late June 07) really makes me wonder about bottle turnover. Indeed, found a wit, a brown, and an amber from early 2005 … probably an easy way to find pre-aged impies….
