Wish they still carried Boss Mouse cheese.

Very nice, small wine shop outside downtown Traverse City…read more Was looking for a few bottles of Pinot Grigio from a local winery that isn't available in grocery stores. The staff person looked in the back to get additional bottles. In addition to have local wines, they had a very nice selection of wines, beers and canned cocktails. They also had a nice selection of pickled veggies, candies and other local delicacies. Staff were very friendly and knowledgeable on the wines in the store. Prices were very reasonable. You could find anything from a $15 to a $60 bottle of wine. I would highly recommend!

Alright. I can't even begin to explain to you how frustrating this store was. The first time I went…read morein the gentlemen behind the counter ID'd all three of us, and my boyfriend, who is two months off his twenty first, told the man he wasn't twenty-one. So, the guy wouldn't sell two bottles of sake to my friend, saying, "It's Michigan state law. I have to card you all." To which I responded, "So...if I was twenty and with my thirty year old aunt, you wouldn't sell to her, because I was with her?" And he said, "Well, I guess I would have to make a decision in that situation, but probably not." And I'm thinking, "Uuuuhhhh, you're making no sense. First it's illegal to sell when a minor is in the party, and then, thirty seconds later, it's okay if the older person is 'old enough' or a relative? What the fuck are you on about you jackass?!" Fine, whatever, so we popped down to Tom's, and the woman said to my friend (who was the only one buying), "You are paying for this, sir? May I see your ID?" ... So it's legal for Tom's to sell to him regardless of the rest of our ages, and not Blue Goat? No, that's not what it was at all. I would have had a lot more respect for the guy and the store if he had just said, "I'm not comfortable selling to you guys with a minor present. I'm sorry it has to be this way, but that's our policy," rather than making up state laws. Anyway. The second time I visited I was hunting for a specific type of Okinawan sake, and this guy (a different one than the first) just couldn't seem to understand what I was asking for. I don't know what the deal was, but I spent ten minutes trying to explain to him that I wanted one bottle of Okinawan sake called Awamori- the brand didn't matter, but by the end of it I just gave up and decided to look online. Though Blue Goat has a pretty good selection, I would honestly rather go to Geyer's or Meijer for anything I need, with the internet as my last choice.

Don't come here for mass market or grocery store wines. They appear to cater more towards the discerning wine connoisseur.
