58 /100 Wise Guys Discount Liquors (Beer Store) 9133 TAFT STREET The store is located on the outer limits of Merrillville in a strip mall far from the main road. It’s somewhat easy to miss. They have most of the local beers but none of the hard to get ones. Service was nonexistant; I walked past the cash registers without seeing a single employee. You won’t be missing much if you passed on this store. |
58 /100 1605 SOUTHLAKE MALL DR YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I faced the wall the whole time and missed out on the cleavaction. OK beer selection though we debated the prices of our beers based on the literature on the table. |
56 /100 1605 SOUTHLAKE MALL DR Gave food N/A because I didn’t eat. The waitresses were super friendly, but had no knowledge of the beer they serve. The draft lines need cleaning. Beer prices were alright and the scenery was excellent. |
80 /100 Wise Guys Discount Liquors (Beer Store) 9133 TAFT STREET Stop in while staying in town. Very nice selection and staff was helpful. Was able to pick up some unrated beers I have been looking for along with some FFFs. Worth the stop for sure. |
70 /100 Wise Guys Discount Liquors (Beer Store) 9133 TAFT STREET Stopped in on a trip to Three Floyds. The place is in a strip mall so there’s plenty of parking available. When you walk into the store, the shopping carts are on your left and the beer aisle is one of the first you’ll come to. They have coolers of 4-packs, 6-packs, bombers, and a few other larger formats packages of the bigger brands. They have a pretty nice selection of beers to choose from, but the lambics they have advertised as available on their website were nowhere to be found. I was able to load up on some Three Floyds beer that wasn’t available at the pub, so that was a plus. There wasn’t really any form of service to be found except when it was time to check out. I don’t really mind that, though, because I usually take awhile to make up my mind of what I want. This place is pretty cool aside from the lambics they didn’t actually have. |
72 /100 Wise Guys Discount Liquors (Beer Store) 9133 TAFT STREET Wise Guys is a big, clean store with not a lot of distinctive atmosphere but with a very good beer selection, the best I know of in NW Indiana. Their prices seem to be, for the most part, the lowest everyday liquor store prices in the region. |
78 /100 Liquor Bucket (Beer Store) 409 W 80TH PL Lacks much ambiance, but there is usually at least one employee or an owner there that is craft brew savy. Good selection, but they stand out in value with the best prices in NWI. Rarities are put on the shelves only if the regulars do not buy them out. |
88 /100 Old Chicago - Merrillville (Restaurant) 740 E 81ST STREET Damn good pizza. Lots of beer. |
74 /100 Wise Guys Discount Liquors (Beer Store) 9133 TAFT STREET Nice, clean, suburban chain store type feel...so as far as ambiance, it feels like a CVS or Walgreens. One big isle of beer with the rest of the store being wine and liquor. No dust, and it seems like they are doing a decent turnover. Lots of good beer to be found with the occasional rarity. The beer guy seems to know what he’s doing and does his best to get in the sought after releases. That being said, the prices are some of the best craft prices I have ever seen. This alone makes it a must stop for me whenever I happen to be passing by. Most FFF bombers are fresh and the regular $10 ones are cold and ready for $7.50. Worth the stop if you are in the area. Close to Crown Brewing. |
78 /100 Wise Guys Discount Liquors (Beer Store) 9133 TAFT STREET At the end of a strip mall just at the edge of the border of Merrillville and north of Crown Point. The selection was not huge but had some good qualty brews including Boulevard Saison with Brett and The Bruery beers at a good price. I also picked up some of the Thomas Hardy 40th Anniversary ales as well. I spend around $100 in total and was happy will my haul. Will visit again. |
82 /100 Wise Guys Discount Liquors (Beer Store) 9133 TAFT STREET One of the best places around (for wine and beer)! Interior presents a new, clean appearance with bright lights that is quite welcoming. One of the best beer selections around, but the best part is that it has THE best prices around. Better places do exist, but I’m not sure if they exist within a half-hour drive in any direction. Not bad at all. |
82 /100 Wise Guys Discount Liquors (Beer Store) 9133 TAFT STREET Right across the street from the Lake County Court house in Crown Point. Really nice selection of beer, some stuff that I’ve never seen in stores, like Upland Lambics, every seasonal from 3F, and the staff is pretty knowledgable. Prices can’t be beat. For example I bought Hopslam for $14.50 and a bottle of Oatgoop for $12.87. |
80 /100 Old Chicago - Merrillville (Restaurant) 740 E 81ST STREET One of the best beer bars in the area, but that’s not saying much. To be fair, the number of beers is impressive and hard to find. However, the emphasis is too much on macros or other common beers and less on good micros. Has some great ideas, including the world beer tour, which is really cool (go there to find out more!). Has a lot of potential, but needs more "serious beer." More 3 Floyds and Dogfish Head and less Corona. Don’t expect a Hop Leaf or Map Room but do expect one of the best beer bars around with a lot to choose from and a friendly atmosphere!! |
74 /100 Wise Guys Discount Liquors (Beer Store) 9133 TAFT STREET Not a huge selection, but a quality selection. The prices seemed to be a mixed bag, but over all were in my favor. The staff was friendly and attempted to be helpful, but since my first question upon visiting a "new" shop is, "What do you have that I have not tried?" there was a limit to what they could do for me. Definitely a place to return to and a handy stop when visiting crown Brewing in crown Point. |
100 /100 Wise Guys Discount Liquors (Beer Store) 9133 TAFT STREET This is a new store with great prices and very friendly and helpful staff,my first experience was seeing a ad in newspaper for Founders Breakfast Stout for $9.97 and it got me in and next the next thing i know is i am leaving with the stout and Goose Island BCS FOR $14.97 A 4 pack and four of the Upland Lambics which were $12.97 each and Brooklyn chocolate stout for $9.41 a six pack plus they have many other great stuff that is priced real cheap compared to most other places i have been to.I will be a regular until i move to Florida.CHEERS! |
