This place gets brownie points for the following:…read more 1) Having "my" brand of sangria cheaper than Binny's. 2) Having Robert The Bruce beer when Binny's didn't. 3) Letting me take some of their empty boxes when I was moving. 4) Carrying fresh limes all summer so you don't have to go back to the grocery store. 5) Knowing the difference between rum and cachaca. 6) I can ride my bike to here from my home! I do it for the exercise and to save gas, but I'll let everybody keep thinking that I bike to liquor stores because my license was taken away because of, um, my frequent visits to liquor stores. I like Binny's, but this is closer, has a great selection, and has better pricing on some items. I lately only go to Binny's for particular beers that Prestige doesn't always have, or has in limited quantities that may disappear quickly, like Sam Adams Blackberry Witbier. I took one star away because there seem to be some rude customers there pretty often; the kind of people who smash their car door into other people's doors and then yell at the person in the car they smashed like it was their fault for having the stupidity and audacity to park in their vicinity. Also, the parking lot can be a bitch to get out of if you drive. Also, I like that they card religiously, but there's this ONE GUY who likes to scrutinize the ID's of old ladies to make them feel young and beautiful or something, even if there's a line. Hey man, if you wait much longer, she's going to die before she can get home and drink that wine cooler. Really, though, I love this place. Thank you for selling good sangria on the cheap, Prestige!

Holy crap, yes, such a thing exists ^_^ In a fit of intrigue, yearning, and jealousy, I urgently got on the interwebz and used my keen investigatory abilities in order to find a place where i could get my desirous lil' hands on some bottles. The interwebz pointed me out to Prestige and minutes later i was in my car ready to go. Compared to other liquor stores, Prestige is on the smaller size, but it packs a big punch in terms of their craft and specialty beer selection. The place was clean, organized, and the guy in front of the counter was really helpful in terms of helping me find what i was looking for. The beer gods must have been looking out for me because i managed to snatch the last bottle of Wells Banana Bread Beer which cost around $5. I browsed their selection to see if i there was anything else cool to buy and hell yes there was. TONS of lefthand,Three Floyds, Lagunitas products, lots of interesting specialty porters, stouts, i found a creme brulee beer, a vanilla beer, AND i ended up purchasing a bottle of oatmeal stout. This place freaking rules and my banana bread beer was amazing. It smelled like bananas and tasted like awesome. Sorry Liver, but i'll be coming here back for surely .

She loved it so much, I am definitely going to be coming back here often. There is even a bar attached to the store. It's a great place to be and grab a quick drink with friends.

I love the fact that you can mix/match to create your own six pack so that you can try various types, it's perfect for the old man and I because we are almost complete opposites when it comes to beer. Their prices are on target with the area. It's also a huge plus that they are literally a block away from our condo. The staff is always very friendly and can definitely steer you in the right direction if you give them a general flavor profile that you're looking for. They also have tastings at various times (Fridays & Sunday) and support other local businesses. I think it's fantastic that they carry Flesk (a Lombard brewery!) and usually have a nice-and regular- selection of 3 Floyds. So if you're in the downtown area it's definitely a good place to check out.

Packy's is an old liquor store that has been here for decades. The current owners have done their…read morebest to keep the same offerings as the original owners. Kegs and pony kegs of many brands of beers, as well as a large stock of alcohols and spirits. Since they often get a steady stream of Eastern European clientele they also offer a few brands of European brand alcohols. A star attraction would be Kapitanska vodka, their large size at 1.75L for a mere $27.99. Yeah its the same as any large bottle of spirits but its the bottle it comes in. Fully decorated and its size, just causes any alcohol drinker to smile. Image it having the length and girth of a 10 year old child's leg. Yes, if you wonder, I have purchased a bottle and am waiting for a good occasion to bring it to a house party. Since Packy's is in the burbs, they also offer a medium selection of airplane bottles. They are one of very few liquor stores that allow a discounted price on buying these in bulk. Often times these airplane bottles come in packs of ten or twelve. If buying in bulk, make sure to inquire with the clerk about the rate. Most times the owner is not there and the clerk may just charge you the price per bottle. I've included a few photos to entice your interest.

I visited United Liquors to inquire about Cutwater singles and Pink Whitney. When I politely asked…read moreabout stock and pricing, the clerk's response was unnecessarily rude. Beyond the poor service, the prices were notably high. Unfortunately, the quality of the Pink Whitney I purchased was poor--it tasted stale, as if it had been sitting on the shelf for months. After drinking it, I became ill and experienced a severe migraine. I suspect the product may have been expired or improperly stored. I would advise others to inspect bottles carefully before purchasing here.

We even discussed Uncle Nearest whisky! After a recommendation from the owner, I chose the VDR; Very Dark Red wine. I thoroughly enjoyed it and can't wait to go back to try more!

I felt like at Foremost Liquors, I was welcomed with open arms. The guys up front saw me looking through the craft brews and launched into telling me all about some different breweries and making recommendations. I told them about a couple of beers I have been specifically hunting for & they gave me their opinions on them, plus told me about beers with similar tastes that they thought were better. Foremost Liquors carries a ton of Pipeworks 22 ozs which I loved going through. To see exactly what they are carrying at any given point, check out their list on BeerMenus. The store itself was very clean, organized well, plenty of parking right out front (so you don't have to carry the liqs all over creation!) and as I said the service was stellar. Top all that off with them carrying some hard to find, sought after craft beers plus their competitive pricing and it makes for a liquor store that is going to go into my regular rotation!
