Love Minnesota craft beer and liquor? Ombibulous is da spot! Buy singles of almost any beer in there and the best guys runnin the shop. Always freindly and knowledgeable. read more

This is one of the best liquor stores in the twin cities for local beer. Residing in a former gas station, Ombibilous is easily accessible off Hennepin Ave, welcoming you with it's bright lighted sign. The store has an extensive but well curated variety of local Liquor, Beer, Bitters, Syrups, Ciders and THC drinks. I'm always impressed by their stock of slightly less mainstream beer types/breweries. Definitely a great neighborhood shop and a spot to check out for a gift as well! read more

Nice, small liquor super in an old gas station that sticks only local brews, liquor, THC, and N/A products. They get a lot of limited release stuff by working with only smaller breweries so checking back often is a good call. The staff has always been very helpful and friendly but there's a definite hipster "craft beer" vibe about the whole place. There is an awesome shop dog, though so that overrides any complains I may have. read more

Ombibulous - the inside of a grocery store - Beer, Wine & Spirits Near Me - Minneapolis, Minnesota

I would have never guessed this is what this was. Kinda a hole in the wall but it's not the experience it's the product they provide. An excellent little spot for people searching for locally-based alcohol. They don't have anything else. I think it was a gas station at some point that makes it easy to park. But it's great for the beer lover. Just pick a beer carrier for 4 and choose your favs. But if you want 4 of the same they are sometimes already in a carrier. You even get to choose your color. It's the small details that I like. Fully loaded with tattersall liquor too. The cashier was friendly and quick. It's an easy process we didn't need much help. read more

Tiktok made me do it and I am so glad I did! On first drive, it looks like an old gas station minus the pumps. Wall full of fridges are all that's standing between you and all the delicious Minnesota brews Ombibulouse has to offer. The staff is knowledgeable and so kind. With COVID, they do have capacity limits and require a mask. You can build your own 6-packs at your own leisure. They also carry Minnesota wines/sodas/craft liquors. All at great prices! Beers rang from $3/can to $14/pack which varies by brewery/size/quantity. Absolutely stop here! And if they still have it, get the coconut macaroon Cream Ale from Indeed! read more

Ombibulous - Some available beers (build your own 6-pack) - Beer, Wine & Spirits Near Me - Minneapolis, Minnesota

All Minnesota If they don't brew it from here They don't sell it here Ombibulous is not the Twin Cities biggest liquor store. Quite tiny in fact. Housed in what used to be a gas station on East Hennepin just west of the intersection with 35W. They maybe have eight to ten cooler doors and the beers are broken down by style and not brewery. They seem to have strong relationships with certain breweries where you will see their stuff all the time. Lot of Moose Lake, lot of Shakopee. Good mix overall, though. Seems like there is usually at least one new brewery they have every time that I go. They also have wines and spirits for sale -Minnesota-made only of course! My only complaint is I want more! Bigger building, bigger selection. Minnesota has nearly two hundred breweries. Don't think I've seen product from more than twenty of the two hundred at Ombibulous. Unrealistic expectations. Still love this place! read more

This place is awesome for all local craft beer and liquors. It's a super small place and looks like an old gas station. I really enjoy that they let you mix your own combination of beer and they have so many different types and flavors. They also have a lot of options from from Drekker in Fargo and they are very hard to find in the twin cities. read more

This place is the best bottle shop in the cities. You can break up any pack of beer / seltzer / cider that you want which makes trying all the great beverages they carry even easier. The team provides recommendations that perfectly match what you are looking for and carry the hottest & newest beverages in town. Even better is the focus on locally made products, including the liquor. If I am ever out in the Cities and in need of alcohol I stop here. read more

If you are looking for Bud LIght or Miller's this is not your stop. If you want to try some craft brews and spirits all made in Minnesota then this is your paradise. The brews, all in the cooler, are separated by type. So to find brews by Bent Paddle from Duluth you will look under IPAs and then down the line to the Pilsners etc. The owner is helpful and will point out whatever you need to find. I didn't see anything listed as a special or sale item but there is a point system in a membership club giving a future discount. **Bear in mind there is "credit card adjustment" applied, so you get a break from this if you pay cash, but who carries much cash anymore? read more

I've driven past this place several times and finally stopped in today. As soon as we walked in we were greeted by the cutest Corgi and I immediately fell in love. Adorable Corgis aside, this store has a fantastic selection of local beer, cider, and liquor. It's pretty classy on the inside. The outside gives off a little bit of an "I don't know what this experience is going to be like" vibe, but it's totally worth stopping in here the next time you're in need of some spirits. read more

Ombibulous - Beer, Wine & Spirits Near Me - Minneapolis, Minnesota

They have a great selection of local products, I have always found good ciders and sours here

As a lover of craft beer/spirits, this place is amazing. They only sell things that are produced in MN. It is really amazing that they commit to supporting local businesses like that. Keep that in mind if you are looking for something specific, because unless it is made in MN, they won't have it. The person working here was also super knowledgable about the beer they had. I was wandering around and would pick something up. The person working there would very quickly tell me everything I wanted to know about the beer. That saved me a big headache of picking something I didn't want/wouldn't like. Worth checking out if you want to find some local beers/spirits that you might not find at other places. 18/100 read more

Knowledgeable, friendly, and well curated. As a visitor traveling through the area I absolutely appreciated all the recommendations and will send everyone I can their way! read more

They have the best selection of Minnesota-made beers and spirits, and they are also incredibly helpful. I was on hunt to find beers named after breakfast foods for a friend's bday (she really loves pancake sours out of all things). They helped me locate some great beers for the occasion and even notified me when they received a French toast ale later that week. Love this place. read more

Wonderful store filled with the best of Minnesota -- beer, liquor and wine. Spent a few minutes chatting with the friendly owner and meeting the friendly bulldog. Really enjoyed his recommendations and appreciated the unique nature of his store, can't recommend this place enough, especially if you're visiting! read more

WE LOVE OMBIBULOUS! Not only is it amazing to have easy access to Minnesota local beers and liquors but the staff are also incredibly knowledgable and friendly. We always enjoy stopping by! read more

Probably one of the best bottle shops in town. Being able to purchase singles, with a huge selection, is awesome. It is a tiny place, but with a great selection, size doesn't matter! :-) read more

High prices, limited selection (not unheard of for a tiny neighborhood store). The guy working was not very knowledgeable and fairly disinterested in helping us. Kind of a disappointment because I was hooping to like this place. read more

My favorite place! Always extremely helpful, friendly and super appreciative of their customers stopping in. They have a great selection of MN craft beer and cider. I also love how you can create your own 6 pack and buy singles! Great samples that I usually end up buying! AND a super cute dog that greets you! read more
