Beer paradise does exist!

[amateuraficionado]

The liquor store(converted supermarket) that I frequent has a decent selection of craft beer and has really served me well in attempting to develope my tastes. I have however been looking for the next level so to speak. Someplace that has a good selection of quality imported and domestic craft beers that aren't easy to come by. Well about 2 days before I received the beer pif, I found that place. Oak Tree Buy Rite Jersey boys take note, this is the place to go for the best beer selection I have ever seen. The appearance from the outside is very unassuming and it looks like just any other liquor store, but once inside it's a whole nother story. Besides the selection which is second to none, the thing that really sets this place apart from any other store I've been to is how helpful the staff is. I hadn't been in the door 3 minutes when I was asked by two people if I needed help with anything. Then I got to bs'ing with one of the guys that worked there and he literally spent an hour with me picking out different kinds of beer and giving me detailed info about each beer as we went along. These guys really know their stuff! This place is supposedly rated as having the 3rd best craft and imported beer selection in the world and #5 overall retailer. I can't even imagine what #2 and #1 look like. If you're ever in the area, you owe it to yourself to pay this place a visit.

I'm telling you Isy, it'd be worth the trip. The pictures just don't do this place justice, and everything is so friggin' organized is almost sickening. They have an entire aisle of just singles with which you can put together six packs. Every time we pulled a single off the shelf(finally totaling a case worth of singles) this guy moved forward all of the bottles behind the one we just took. This place is immaculately organized, nothing is out of place. I can't wait to stop in this weekend. It's less than 20 minutes from my house and about 7 min. out of the way if I stop on the way home from work!

I'll see about making it down there in the next week or so. You down for a smoke somewhere nearby?

I've heard there's a store in the Seattle area that is comparable, but WOW it looks like you found BeerVana.... :laugh:

....course, round here, we get the good stuff ON TAP. Still fond memories of "The Abyss" while the local watering hole had it on tap...... :love: :love:

Holy Jeebus...that place makes my local BevMo look like an Albertson's beer cooler, and this place looks like God's Beer Vault! :0
