Large selection of local and regional stuff, better than your average Total Wine I think. Manager knew his beers and had good recommendations.

For the DC metro area this place has a very good selection. I don’t care that it looks like a supermarkert; I care that it has beer and stuff. It does have beer and stuff. I picked up 23 or so different beers when I stopped by (none of which I had yet had). The problem with this is place is, and of course I will sound like a snob, is that while they have lots of stuff they don’t exactly have the right stuff. For example, they have one beer by BrewDog, one by Mikkeller, and one by Nogne O. They have a lot of mid-range beers. Also, the selection looks more vast than it actually is because the bottles are arranged so that a number of the same beer face the aisle. In any case, I think I would rather shop here than in virtually any other place I have found in the area (so long as me friend drives me there of course). Prices are hit or miss. Some stuff is cheaper than average, while other stuff is significantly more expensive.

Yes it looks like a grocery store but they sell nothing but beer and wine. This was probably the cleanest Total Wine I’ve visited. I also thought it was the best laid out. All of the make your own sixer stuff was on the same long aisle with the craft sixers. In fact you can take a bottle out of a sixer to make your own, if they run out in the sixer section. Also the selection available for make your own sixer was greater than you typically see, in part because they charge for the individual beer instead of selling it for a blanket price. The sales clerks knowledge of beer is hit and miss but they were friendly.

Much better selection than the Sterling store from a mixed sixer stand point. Almost everything they have is available as a mixed sixer. The staff was helpful and actually seemed to know something about beer. They have a couple of different distributors then some of the other TW&M stores, so if one of the others doesn’t have what you want, they might. The beer section is well organized. (Though they do have cider stuck with the BMC... why??). The store is clean and well maintained.

Good selection, good service. If they don’t have what you’re looking for, you can have them try to order it.

Great service. I really thought they had a great selection and I found a lot to take (though I didn’t buy that much). Prices seemed to be on par for the area, but the selection here was the best for the places I’d seen. Would go back here, for sure.

One of the largest selections I have seen in the area. They aren’t always getting new brews in, but the ones they have range from decent to excellent, and they do have many.

Pretty good selection of basic seasonal/micro brews with pretty good prices compared to grocery stores for the more well known beers - inventory rivals the old Springfield location’s selection. Nothing extremely rare, but certainly a good array which you can’t find at some of the more specialized stores because there simply isn’t room.

FIrst of all, this is THE store to go to in the area for making a mixed 6 pack. They have the better part of an aisle full of singles, and although many are not very good, there are also a decent amount of solid beers, some that are really good, and a few rare ones that I didn’t find anywhere else in the area. The store itself isn’t much to look at, and it feels like a supermarket inside. It is hard to find staff in the beer area sometimes, and nearly impossible to get answers to questions from them. Clearly, the emphasis is on wine with them, or at least those people that I have spoken with. Still, they are not usually rude, and some in the front are pretty nice and talkative. Prices are average to just slightly above average for the area. In short, you may miss out on some of the rarer releases if you go here, and you can’t go expecting to chat beer with the staff, but you can at least get a good mixed 6 pack.

total wine is my favorite place to shop! only go there for the beer!
