Jake SmithJanuary 16, 2013If they don't have it or something comparable, it doesn't exist. This is one of the most varied liquor stores I've ever been in. Pick up a bottle of J.T.S. Brown!

Natalie QuamJanuary 6, 2015Great beer selection, awesome liquor selection, and very helpful staff. I don't suggest looking for wine here unless you want something cheap. Good sales and prices.UpvoteDownvote- Zach Solomon-BeloinJune 27, 2016Great selections of local craft beer, liquor and wine. You'll definitely find what you're looking for. They often have tastings too.Upvote1Downvote
Try the Midnight Moon moonshine (apple pie). You taste buds will love you forever!!

One of the few places in the city that carries products from Iowa's Mississippi River Distilling Co. Worth checking outUpvote1Downvote
Zander is, by far, the most capable expert where cigars are concerned. Always personable, and forever knowledgable, he's the guy to see in Binny's humidor.UpvoteDownvote- Willie BlackAugust 29, 2016A lot of good things including their free samples specials on new cigars and wine and alcoholUpvoteDownvote

Peter HardersMarch 2, 2012If you aren't purchasing a 4-pack of Wells' Banana Bread Beer you must be lacking taste buds. What could be better than bananas and beer all in the same bottle?

Adam SegerJanuary 7, 2012Moscato Bricco Riella for $9.99 is delicious on the rocks in a wine glass with a float of Hum. Think instant bubbly sangria.

Ask for "Ben the Beer Guy" and have him put you on the Binny's Ivanhoe Castle Beer Mail list. Great insider newsletter, and invites to tasting events, pairings, etc. Read moreUpvote3Downvote
