I love cheap wine. Not just any cheap wine. Good cheap wine…read more Actually I strongly believe, that with so much good wine on the market, there is no reason to ever pay more than $20 for an incredible bottle. And that you should be able to get very good wine for much less. Wine stores do not generally tend to agree with me on this. Most stores only sell rot-gut for under $10. Not this place. In fact, they have an entire wall dedicated to highly regarded and reviewed, inexpensive wines under $10. This puts them on my short list of places to buy wine out here. If you want rot-gut, well, they have that too. But seriously, pony up the extra $2 and get something that's actually good. Still would like to see a Trader Joe's, or find a place that sells close-outs but this will do for now.

Save yourself some time and drive to Empire Wine and Liquor on Central Ave. Staff is friendly and…read morebetter selection. Stopped in the 20 Mall liquor store today looking for a specific product. Pretty big store, that I visited previously, so I was confident that they would carry the product I was searching for (or one of a few similar items). The clerk tried to help but referred me to his his boss to see if they carried or could order what I was looking for. The "boss" recommended a product that was in no way similar and made snide comments after I thanked them for their help and left. You can't compete when you're rude to the customers.

This store may technically be a bit small in size, compared to its sister store Oliver's, or Half…read moreTime; but it has just as good a selection as them. I was a regular at this store for seven years. I always stuck mostly to the new arrivals display across from the register (current seasonals are also on that rack). Though they have a great selection of products from around the world, it's rare you'll find stuff on the shelves that's fresh. In the case of Belgian quads, imperial stouts and the like that's okay, but other brews should be consumed ASAP. They have a "secret" rack of out of code bottles and cans at clearance prices behind the new arrivals display. It's easy to miss, but worth looking at. As for the rest of the store, their inventory and selection is great. The left side of the store has a huge walk in cooler of all the major macro suds. On the other side is another cooler with the major craft brands. They always have the best craft mini displays over there too. Growler selection is about a dozen taps, all reasonably priced. They often have penny growler sales too. The occasional in-store tastings by brewery reps are nice. So basically Westmere Beverage is a perfect beer store... Just about. My only compliant other than the old bottles on the shelves would be the parking. Guilderland gave them a sidewalk (which they didn't have a choice about) and that eliminated a bunch of convenient spots right in front of the store. Lousy bureaucrats.

When I moved to the Albany area from Dutchess County, I knew one of the places I would miss the…read moremost was Half Time. This store took care of any angst I might have had. The selection is almost as good overall, and better when you take into consideration all of the New York State beers available, especially upstate (I had no idea there were so many new breweries in the Glens Falls area, for example). It's very well organized as well. Whenever my beer-enjoying friends are in the area, this is a must-stop.
