Solid beer location with great prices for the area. Staff gives good advice. Sells shipping material. Go out of your way for this one.

Warehouse-style place with solid beer selection and nice wine and spirits too. Excellent price points on a lot of stuff for sure.

Great bottle shop hidden in an industrial area of Santa Rosa. Found some rarities here and very well priced locals. Very fresh Russian River brews as well (3-day old Pliny? Yes, please!). Seems to be a must stop in the area according to locals, and I would have to agree since after visiting the Bottle Barn I didn’t have to look elsewhere to get what I wanted (Odonata, Valley Brew, RRiver, etc.)

No singles at all. Fair organization of bottles - on the floor, crowded near the bathroom and stockroom compared to the many wine racks. Old hoppy ales (ie. Lost Continent) among lesser known breweries. Only a small proportion of beers in the narrow cooler.

Visited August 16, 2009. This liquor store is well stocked with a good selection of beers, at affordable prices. The 750 ml RR Temptation was a good 5$ less than at the brewpub, the Ruben and the Jets was 3.99$ (vs 5$ at the Lagunitas store)...so, when in Santa Rosa, its worth a stop for your bottle fix. The selection is smaller than other locations I visited, but well selected.

Light industrial building. Parking can be a bit tight when it’s busy. Tough to get a cart through the single door - when you expect the door to resist closing! Can’t even see beer upon entry. Overloaded with wine and hard stuff. But when you get to the right rear, it’s really interesting. More space for beer than Ledgers, less than Bottleworks. Lots of beer, and it’s mostly decent ales. Staff was willing to help - don’t know how useful it would have been. Had my printable beer list to go by. All the help needed. A goodly number of hard to find California ales, and some old foreign friends I’ve never rated. Worth a drive of an hour or two! Highly recommended.

Another spot to check out in the Russian River area. I’d heard great things about this place, so I made sure to make a stop before heading over to the RR Brewpub. They had a great selection of west coast and CA beers, like you would expect. They had quite a bit of FW13, Deschutes special releases (including allowing me to take home a case of Abyss). The selection of beers from other parts of the US was quite good too, especially some DFH beers that we don’t often see out here in CA. The service was not bad, but you need to take the initiative if you need some help. This isn’t a problem for me, and something I generally prefer when it comes to beer shopping. The prices are also great, at least a dollar or two less than other retailers (Mirror Mirror for example, was $10.50 instead of the usual $13).

I’m not sure what the reviewer below me was smoking because this place has a ton of singles everywhere. Lots of weird bottles from different countries, good selection of English, Belgian, German, New Zealand stuff. Wasn’t able to find a whole lot of rare stuff and really wasn’t stocked up with Russian River when I was there, but honestly if you are in Santa Rosa I would just go to Russian River and they sell bottles to go. The ambiance here is a very large warehouse with a ton of liquor and wine as well. You can get lost in here just walking around. Big selection, some of it is in coolers but not a lot. Didn’t leave here with anything interesting though I did find some Bud Light Chelada needed for a scavenger hunt.

It is tucked away into an industrial park setting with solid warehouse appeal inside and out. The inside is seriously spacious. The beer area is decent enough in size but only makes up about an eighth of the total retail space. They have a very nice array of west coast craft beer bombers and sixes. I was very happy to see a couple of cases of The Abyss just sitting there waiting for me to take home. I walked away with 13 bombers and left behind many more I wish I could picked up. I love that they provide an array of styro shippers for purchase. They seemed pretty inexpensive too.

Well, what an unassuming place nestled inconspicuously in an industrial park. Dimly lit (which is good) warehouse atmosphere. Not pretty, but I don’t care. A really solid beer selection. Lots of international beers and North American microbrews. The only place I’ve seen Cuvee Rene in Cali as well as the only place I’ve seen Quelque Chose. Respectable prices. Their mead selection is limited. They do have lots of other liquors and wines. Definitely worth a stop. They do have some old bottles hanging around, though, so beware. 6 packs cannot be broken down, which sucks, too.
