Crossroads Fine Wine and Beer

No Longer In Business

It took awhile for me to muster up the will to drive all the way out to 99th and McDowell, which is where this place actually is located, but it was worth the trip. The owner is very laid back and educated about his stock, which is around 400 bottles now. Found a stash of Santa’s Helper and Yulesmith that made my day. Great deal on mixed six packs, especially since everything is sold in singles.

I love this place. I spend every Saturday afternoon in the store talking with the staff and exploring the newest beers that Jim (owner) has to offer. He has taught me more about beer and wine over the last several months than I would have expected. This place is addictive. The customer service is excellent. I love to talk about beer and wine with people who love this stuff as much as I do. I always leave with a smile on my face and an arm load of the finest selection of beer and wine that money can buy.

I have been a customer since opening about a year ago. When he went to selling all the beers as singles is when it made it fun to shop here. Now 335 labels to choose from. Hand written signs are witty and neat. Outstanding one-on-one personal service. Seems to have a great wine selection with a tasting area with the ability to taste up to 8 wines everyday.

Owner was very hands on and helpful. Estimate 350 beers currently but he says he’s trying to get up to 500. All available by the bottle. Prices really good considering 10% off for 6 packs and 15% if you make it to 24. Website not totally up-to-date (said AleSmith but none to be found) but helpful to get a starting idea. Pleasant place and owner.

Jim is very knowledgeable and will help you the environment is very comfortable and you don’t feel out of place. The store has lots of beers to chose from.

Crossroads is a new store that opened late 2006. The owner Jim has been building the beer inventory, and stocks more than 300 types now. Everything is sold by-the-bottle so you can build your perfect six pack.
