Beer Yard

I must have driven past this place 20 times before finally deciding to stop in. I’m very glad I did! Tremendous selection and a very knowledgeable staff. There is something exciting about wandering the tiny, cramped aisles among stacks and stacks of cases. Great website - you can check prices and stock quantities through email and even have an email sent to you when they restock your favorite beer. I’m very happy I live only a few miles away!

OMG, This place was harder to find then Victory !!! Behind the Starbucks. Does not look like much on the outside but inside there was a great selection of cases from all over the world. The staff was pretty cool, and they also had a nice selection of glassware.

Though it was a pain in the ass to find it was well worth driving up and down Lancaster Avenue a few times. Here’s a hint: look behind Starbucks. Store is small but completely stacked with amazing import and craft beer cases. The Belgian selection is especially impressive. Friendly, helpful staff as well. If you are in the Philly area stop in, it is only about 20 minutes from Capone’s as well.

Excellent distributor. Glad I live a short drive away. Even though it’s relatively small I could spend hours trying to decide what to leave with as the selection is about as good as it gets. If they don’t have what you want, they’ll do what it takes to get it.

A glimpse into beer heaven.....cases galore...bombers, 12 oz...even a few selected singles up by the register....very helpful staff, and they are not pushy in any way....you have the freedom to browse...I like that...I also enjoy the gathering of hand trucks at the door..its very inviting...each aisle reminds me of being in a library, except I’m reading all the beer titles instead

One of the best beer distributors in the state. Tremendous selection with some vintages and rare beers. The staff is very knowledgeable and extremely helpful. Matt is one of the best beer guys in he area, and will help you find just about anything you are looking for. A can’t miss place if you are in the Philly area.

Great staff. Almost overwhelming selection of product, despite its size. There are bigger in the area but not better. The primary supplier to every decent bar in the area. I am amazed at what these guys have in stock.

This place is pretty cool. Cases stacked at least 8 feet tall. This is one crazy selection (Dark Horizon for me). I’ll be back shortly. Highly recommend if you’re in the Philly area.

I loved this store! I’m sure it’s an old garage or something, and the ambiance is very simple and unadorned, but really, what more do you need? Lots of great beers, tons of stuff I’ve never had, and fantastic service! I was remiss in not getting my helper’s name, but really love my Duvel tulip (his recommendation) !

Great selection of sixtels - probably the best in the Philadelphia area. Matt is VERY helpful in placing special orders for you if he doesn’t have it in stock. Great selection of cases, but I mainly go for the sixtels.
