“Been several times but never remember to rate it (until now). A nice place with high-quality beer, and a good selection of it most of the time. Usually lots of high-gravity selections. I do wish there were a bit better vegetarian food selection, but I think it's gotten a little better on that front recently. Overall a great place, though.“

“Another HopCat, very conveniently located for me. Doesn't quite have the same vibe as the one in Ann Arbor, but it's a nice place. Food is solid. Large taplist of course, but like pretty much everywhere these days it's a bit overloaded on IPAs and fruited sours. Still, a really nice place!“

“Free dedicated parking right in front of this place. No service to speak of. Selection is pretty limited here. I did find two bottles I was looking for. Pricing seemed a little high. I would go back if I had time.“

“Free dedicated parking in the back. The owners brother was on duty and was pretty helpful. A couple rows of nicely procured beers. I got to go back into the special room. To buy beers in the club room you have to have a certain level. I was level one and could buy almost nothing there. If you are a local and lived near by and got to level 20, this is probably a great place, however for the out of towner this is more of just a good place. I bought a few beers and would return.“

“Free dedicated parking right in front. Clean wine shop format. I talked to the owner which was nice enough to allow me to use their personal restroom and was friendly, but did not know much about their beer selection (it seems there beer guy of 14 years had sought alternative employment). Really good selection of Belgians, good selection of american, and some others. Several rows of beer. Lots of large format and some small format bottles. Prices seemed going rate. I would come back.“

“Free parking right out front. Descent size pick store. Several single shelves rows, plus a couple rows of large format bottles. Prices are a little high, but %15 discount for six-packs. I ended up with two six-packs. No service to speak of. I would go back.“

“Best beer selection in metro Detroit and the service is incredible. Also best singles / build-a-six I’ve seen in Michigan. Great selection of cans for boat season. Specialty bombers and hard-to-find brews. This is the only place I now buy beer if I can help it. These guys take great care of you, too.“

“Great local liquor store who has a great selection of Craft beers. Can spend a good half hour looking for what sounds good! Workers are very friendly and welcoming. Punch card program allows for opportunity to purchase hard to find beers. Definitely recommend people check them out.“

“They have all the items you’d expect to find plus much much more! A humidor full of cigars, shelves full of liquor from floor to ceiling! Large selection of craft beer and wine all with good prices! They also have everything to make your own beer and wine. I’ll drive by others stores to get to this one!“

“Decent selection but some of the stock tends to be old, especially from the singles selection. Was one of the first places with a singles selection, but now it’s actually quite small compared to most. A little pricy. Rarely stop in anymore because of other places nearby with better pricing & selection. But if you happen to be passing by, it’s not a bad stop.“

“Good selection, really friendly service. Just recently they’ve expanded their singles selection - there’s way more to choose from now, which is awesome to see. Seems like they always get new stuff in fairly quickly, too. Prices range from being on par in many cases, to a bit overpriced for some others. Not outrageous, but you may expect to pay an extra dollar or two compared to a few other places. Overall, though, a pretty nice stop for the area.“

“Solid singles selection (everything is a "single" basically, if you want it to be) with a very friendly staff. However prices are quite high in many cases. I guess that’s the premium you pay for being able to get anything in a single? Worth it, occasionally. Although the high prices would keep it from being a complete "go-to" for me.“

“Friendly service & a nice sized singles selection, although the prices can be quite high. Some of the steepest I’ve seen for certain beers, definitely. Sometimes some of the stock is old, too. IPAs tend to hang around for longer than they should. Otherwise, nice selection, but there are some cheaper places in town. Can be nice if you’re looking for a specific single bottle of something, I guess.“

“I’ve been searching for a beer store for sometime now. I recently saw that the Beer Baron, Livonia was selected as one of the best beer stores in the country by Draft Magazine. I finally checked it out last week and I was very impressed. Great service and great beer selection. They had every and any kind of beer that is available in MI! This is now my one and only go-to beer store!“

“Looks like your average liquor store but had a ton of goodies. Nice singles selection with tons of Shorts that I have only seen at Wine Palace. They had several other brews including Kuhnhenn 4D which I have not seen anywhere else when I was there. Very large selection of home brew supplies, wine making equipment, and even light to grow "plants". Great selection of B Nektar meads. Could not find this hidden room someone mentioned below. Wish I had a place like this at my home.“

“Not really sure why this is listed, but this is a place is not to bad for a grocery store. Not as nice a a whole foods, but a notch up over your regular supermarket. Nice selection of Bells, Founders, Arbor, and a few other local breweries. Couple seasonal JPs too. Would worth in a pinch, but too many high quality options in the area to make this worth a stop.“

“Medium sized liquor store with very nice selection. Not a ton of rare beers, but if you are traveling to the area and looking to pick up a bunch of local and regional brews this is the place to go. Probably 200 different singles available with a 15% discount if you buy six. There was some nicer brews in the cooler too. Really nice store. Guy at the counter seemed like good people too.“

“Very nice shop with that sells singles, which is not too easy to find in metro Detroit. Very solid selection of Michigan beers along with prominent national craft beers and international. The store has everything that you need and the owner is very helpful and friendly. I strongly recommend giving this a try.“

“Good selection on the general floor space with a wide variety of local, U.S. and some international. But there is a secret stash behind a door that Ethan Hunt would have trouble surpassing. There is where the golden treasure lies with the ultra low volume rarities. Service has been good overall and pricing is generally competitive with some a tad high. A place a make a point of visiting when I am in the area.“

“The selection is pretty awesome here, one of the few places i can go and be certain i will find something new or rare. Prices can be high or low, but I know that if i spend 25-30 dollars they will often take off 10 to 15%.“

“Pretty solid selection. I was hoping to see more with a store this size, well over half the store is devoted to home-brew and home-grow products. Still, there’s a really good amount of beer. Prices were average, a tad on the high side.“
