A great selection of Western Canadian, and foreign beer. The American craft selection is average, but overall the selection here is great. They have most of the good Canadian micros.

Good selection. Kind of hidden in the back. Staff was knowledgable but rude. Hard to find store. Alot of dust on bottles. Sorry.

Best selection Ive seen in Calgary hands down, nice layout, but way too many dusty bottles and I dont know why more micros arent kept in the fridge instead of on the shelf. Staff werent particularly helpful or knowledgable (had no idea a new micro was opening in immediate future in Calgary), but maybe that was because we were there on a Monday afternoon. Despite the selection, I prefer Willow Park hands down for overall experience.

Stopped here while in Calgary on a quick work trip. I asked the staff to point me to any very limited or rare selections that I may be interested in. Staff was quite knowledgeable. The prices were fair in comparison to similar shops, albeit still pricey. The selection was impressive. I was able to quickly find 7 bottles I had been interested in trying but not yet enjoyed. My biggest detraction was that the majority of the beer selection was being kept a room temperature and I wanted to quickly get at a few in my hotel room. That being said, I honestly didn’t even notice they had a cooler area but I am guessing it housed mostly macro beers.

One of the best selections in Calgary and up there with Kensington Wine Market and Willow Park, I dont think they have a beer fridge so all the beer is at room temprature, pricing is comparable with the other good stores in town, not quite as many exclucives as Kensington though, I believe they are in the old Molson brewery in inglwood, If you cant find it at Kensington Wine Market I would look there.

Product was decent but service was not what I expect from a professional business.

They had a good selection for me. First time I was in there. Not sure I’d go back as I wasn’t treated the best.

I wasn’t impressed with the service. The guy that served me seemed to look down his nose at me. He was VERY adamant about WHAT I should be trying as opposed to helping me find something in the style I liked. I can say I won’t be back. After traveling and drinking beer from all over I was interested in talking to someone about BEER. He wasn’t having any of it. Most of the beer (imports) are warm and not in a cooler.

One of the best selection of beers in town. building is in old military (?) complex or something. Really cool. The owner is also a great guy and knows his stuff. I bet he’s tried every beer and can give you a review on each.

Great store, best outside of Quebec with very good selection from Quebec and from the NW USA. As good a place as some smaller US stores, which is saying a lot. Self-service. Always changing inventory.
