88 Driving near enough by so had to make the pit stop. Didn’t have time to truly peruse but a huge selection of brews. I bought some random foreign stuff rather hapahazardly but did find the Belgian brewery I wanted for region purposes. Staff not overly helpful but fine. Not the prettiest of places but that’s not why you come. |
96 This place is legit! I can’t recall ever seeing a bigger selection, foreign or domestic. Every beer, yes EVERY, beer is available as a single. The only caveat is that many of the beers are sitting on warm shelves. I picked up one double IPA can with a canning date 10 months ago. Yikes. Stick to the coolers for the fragile beers and check dates. Otherwise this is a beer lovers paradise. Staff is helpful and prices are quite reasonable. No doubt I’ll be back. |
92 This place is a damn beer museum. Off the highway hole in the wall. Not exactly the most updated space, but it looks just fine with all the beer they have. Enormous selection, including foreign brews, and they sell singles. Pet peeve - there is absolutely no rhyme or reason as to how the beer is laid. Not by region or by style. If you're in the area, a must stop, but give yourself plenty of time to peruse. |
90 Wow! I was not prepared for the immense selection here. Everything is available as a single too. Local and national craft, huge international section. Guaranteed to find something you Haven't had before. Taps too |
82 Nice selection of Belgians, pretty good selections of Germans, good selection of other euro beers, and pretty good selection of american. Ambiance is average to a bit run down, dedicated good size parking lot. I always find several beers here. Typically you can get some help if needed. Great quantity of beers. Pricing is pretty good.
When going north on I-95 there is an $8 toll that you need to have cash if you do not have EZPass. My favorite bottle shop in MD. They have growler fills in the back right. I hope to come back. |
94 What an awesome place. Just feet from the DE/MD state line, this place looks unsuspecting from the outside. Once you enter, you see a massive warehouse of stock. Humongous beer selection, with one of the best import selections I’ve seen anywhere in the US, including a fantastic lambic shelf, tons of European stuff (UK, Belgium, Netherlands, Italy, and Germant are all extremely well-represented). All six-packs are break-up-able, which is excellent. They even have a very good mead selection. Very friendly and helpful service. They also have a growler station with tons of taps - you can sample some of them too. One of the best shops around and worth visiting if passing by. |
100 Amazing best selection i have ever seen. Everything is a single even na beers. If you are a ticker this is your mecca. Cheap too. |
98 An amazing place with an amazing staff! Something going on almost every night of the week. I wonder if they would let me live there? This might be the best craft beer store in all of America. |
90 I stopped here on my way to a show in Philadelphia. It’s reputation made me stop and I wasn’t disappointed. As I wound my way past a nice selection of non-alcoholic craft sodas and some macro beers I found a comprehensive assortment of German beers and styles, many I haven’t had and can’t get in my home state. I proceeded to a large assortment of Belgian style beers from Belgium and Italy. Next was some really obscure beers from England and Eastern Europe, countries that aren’t usually represented in my area. There were neat American craft breweries mixed in here and there, but there was a middle aisle the same size as all of the imports full of beers from the best breweries America has to offer. The mead section was as large as I’ve ever seen. I sadly had to pass on the mead because my grocery cart was already full and I was about to use up my beer drinking budget for the rest of the summer paying for it. And here is the best part, I ended up spending much less than I had managed to estimate in my head. |
80 The really ugly exterior of this building does not reflect the magnificent selection of goods inside, which is a pity. The place is not there for decoration but could probably attract a larger audience with some renovation.
The selection of beers is exceptional. You will find anything here, from small European batches to high-end American super brews. Wonderful! The only thing I missed though on my tour around the place were guiding signs. There is no information whatsoever about the order among the shelves or about the beers themselves. The bottles were mostly grouped brewer by brewer, but with several exceptions and in a seemingly random order. Of course, I could just ask one of the staff for guidance but I preferred to explore the place myself. The upside of this semi-chaos is that you encounter beers that you would not have seen otherwise.
While the staffs around the beer shelves were very helpful the person at the cheese counter was not.
Value is ok, not cheap but not expensive either. One sucky thing though, a single bottle of Delirium was registered as a four-pack. But mistakes happen and I should have paid attention to the total amount.
Anyway, highly recommend anyone up for exploring great beer to go here. Congrats to the management and staff on a great place all in all! |
