Looking for a bottle of Monkey 47 to take home, we discovered this exceptionally curated spirits…read morevendor and can happily report that the perfect review score here on Yelp is fully deserved! This boutique carries only small, independently owned brands, including at least one collectively owned distiller that we noticed. Although we intended only to buy the gin, we were swept up by the beautiful selection and ended up with gin, amaro, absinthe and vermouth I especially love that the products are offered in a variety of sizes, which is a nice way to try new things, and in my case, to purchase as small souvenir gifts for friends, too highly recommend for those who enjoy the craftsmanship that goes into small batch production

This may be the greatest liquor store ever…read more Dr. Kochan did his studies in the anthropology of alcohol (!) and keeps a shop stocked with artisanal spirits distilled by independent producers. Boutique gins (made in Berlin!), scotches finished on strange wood (sauterne casks!?), exotic rums, even artisanal tonic water. Thomas took the time to show us (and let us taste) Monkey 47, his favorite gin, and explained the difference between "geist" (re-distilled fruit-infused neutral spirit) and "brand" (brandies made entirely from fermented fruit). He turned us on to a raspberry brandy (Brand aus Pfälzer Himbeeren) made by a family who farm raspberries in Großkarlbach that is simply sublime. You have to try it. This store is clearly Thomas's passion. I love businesses like this.

What a cool little place this is!!…read more Just a hop skip and a jump from the hotel and we came accross this place,from the outside it just looked like a shop that sold a stupid amount of the green fairy juice,but as it turned out it was also a little bar that sold a stupid amount of green fairy juice. A shop and a bar that you could smoke in that sold stupid amounts of green fairy juice!! A nice little menu with descriptions of the different qualities of Absinthe was a nice touch,as was the taste of the stuff too. If I lived in the area then I think I may become dangerously addicted to the Absinthe Depot,I'd be happy though!!

Drink Drunk is quite literally the greatest liquor store on the planet…read more It's on the corner of Skalitzer Str. and Schlesische Str., which is super busy 'cause it's walking distance from like seventeen clubs. A liquor store in this location could sell warm beer out of a cardboard box and probably make a decent amount of money. That's why Drink Drunk is so amazing, because the fine people at Drink Drunk go so far above and beyond being a basic liquor store when, with their location, they really don't have to. I've never really felt an attachment to a liquor store before this one, and I doubt I will again in the future. Drink Drunk is wholly unique, a singular ray of light in an otherwise dark world filled with mediocre liquor stores. First of all, the beer selection is just stupid. They have the normal German/Belgian/Czech stuff that most stores here have, and then an entire other wall filled with craft and weird beers from all over the world. It's ridiculous. I moved to Berlin from halfway across the world and like three different breweries from my hometown are represented here, each with several different varieties of beer. Some of the stuff is a little expensive for Berlin but it probably has to take like three airplanes to get here so what're ya gonna do. The best part of Drink Drunk though, hands down, is the music. I live near the place and have to pass it to go most anywhere and on my dang honor I solemnly swear I've never heard them play a bad tune. It's generally classic 90s/2000s rap and RnB, dancehall, reggae, things of that nature, which is pretty rare for Berlin, and they have a really bangin' soundsystem for a späti. I've heard them playing Mariah Carey deep cuts. DJ Quik remixes. The album version of "Guilty Conscience." It's bananas. In the summertime they turn it up and you can spend a whole night on the sidewalk out front, listening to jams and drinking, and it'll cost you less than cover at most clubs. Long live Drink Drunk.
