1st Grand Avenue Liquors

This is a great spot for a great variety of Micro-beers, Belgian Beers, and always has a more than ample Seasonal Section as you enter there WALK-IN BEER COOLER.

Very nice shop with an excellent selection. Nice stock in the beer cave. They have what you are looking for, everything from the Big 3 all the way down to little hole in the wall micro’s and a good stock of foreign brews that will take you through all of Europe. Only things I was not impressed by was the lack of singles but that’s not that big of a deal.

Very nice interior, at least for the wine section. All of the beer is in the walk in cooler. No singles. A few dozen imports including some less common Belgian. Surly in stock and some Bells. A step above an average neighborhood liquor store.

I stop in here occasionally because it’s across the street from a place where I eat soup commonly. High prices on a decent, average selection of American micros and a very small selection of the most standard Belgian bottles. No American singles aside from 22 oz bottles but they will occasionally offer mixed six packs such as a winter sampler and the like. A conscientious store. Worth a stop if you happen to be in walking distance. Otherwise, Thomas liquors a couple miles up Grand is much better.

Nice little store on a busy street. The selection is not bad, definitely better than your average liquor store, but not as big of a selection as one of the Cellars. The staff is friendly enough, although I don’t think they have ever gone out of their way to help me before. They have some nice finds here like Ballast Point and some Belgians. Not a must stop but if you’re in the area you might as well drop in.
