Went in because the local Wegman’s didn’t have what I was looking for. It’s small but they have plenty. It’s hard on the eyes because of all the bottles and the prices aren’t clearly marked . In fact they are hand written and I took points off for that being a little difficult. Helpful staff. Prices check out. They even have gourmet soda and growlers.

Stopped here recently while in the area. Kinda a dumpy place, but they only sell beer and craft soda. I was looking to local stuff that I can’t get back in MA, but they seem to have just about something for everyone. Even growlers (which is a new thing for me - being from Mass.). Not much service to speak of, but I usually don’t need any as I prefer to look. Prices seemed about average.

Best bottle store in the state!

God knows how many beers are in this place. Pretty much, if it’s available for distribution in New York State, it’s here. Every employee seems to know where every beer is, so ask. So many Belgians, it’s esoteric. Growlers galore.

Great little beer shop in downtown Ithaca. Tons of local selections and some nice imports - about four-five beer aisles in total. Friendly service and the prices weren’t bad for local bombers - cheaper than in NJ.

If you’re staying in or driving through Ithaca, this place is a must stop. Their singles selection may be the best that I’ve seen with an endless selection of local bottles in addition to cool limited stuff like Cigar City Guava Grove, Rodenbach Vintage, and the Hanssens experimental lambics. Simply amazing beer shop.

This is one of the best bottle shops in the whole state of NY. If it’s distributed in NY then they will most likely have it. They will also work out rare keg orders for you and have a rotating growler station with 12 taps that is well curated. The owners love some beer and are some of the most knowledgeable shop owners that I have met.

great bottle/ growler store. top line selection, very reasonable pricing

Stopped into this place last year during the Ithaca Brute release. Great selection of some hard to find stuff. Nice vintage lambics, including 3 Fonteinen. Big import selection. Saw a good amount of Southampton there too. Staff knew there stuff and was very willing to help. Check it out if you’re nearby.

Incredible little store. Since Dogfish has blown up do to it’s little show on the Discovery Channel, it’s been nearly impossible to get even the common staples (90 minute, raison d’tre, indian brown) anywhere near Philly, Princeton, or even north Delaware. This store always has an incredible selection of Dogfish brews, and other hard to find selective releases. Make sure you spend some time and shop around. There is a lot of stuff that goes missing on the shelf if you get too excited in one area. Pick up what you came looking for and if you see a tag on the shelf but there’s no more beer, ask the owners. They will be happy to help you if they have more in the back.
