Though I no longer live in the immediate area, I always make a point of stopping in Red Land Beer…read moreand Soda. They have a great selection of beer and even have have a Pick 6 option which is great for people like me who appreciate variett and can never make up their mind. The customer service is always awesome and anytime Boyfriend isn't with me, someone always takes my purchases to my car, which I love! Now, with the COVID 19 pandemic, I've seen a lot of questioning, aka griping, about why beer distributors are considered essential. I'm not even going to pretend to understand why they are, though part of me can't fathom begrudging any independent, small business being allowed to be open with the dark cloud of financial crisis looming over our heads. Anyways, with that being said, I'm going to post of picture of Red Land Beer and Soda exhibiting the heart of being of what I personally consider "essential". Kudos to the owner for embracing the true meaning of community and for being an awesome example of people helping people.

He jumped into action walking us to the areas of interest. Ashley the manager helped with recommendations and offered her condolences. Brad even did the shopping for us.

Looks like there's been a change of ownership recently. I met the owner Scott and his son Hale,…read morethe Manager. The new guys are doing a great job of expanding the craft beer selection and they are good at recommending stuff. They also still have lots of all the everyday beers and still have Slushies which I love. The staff are really helpful - even carried my stuff out to the car for me.

I visited them on a few occasions (I'm mostly a wine and spirits girl so I don't stop here often)…read moreand most recently today. The staff is always friendly and helpful. They are quick at the registers and the prices are decent. You can get in and out quickly if you need too. I've been on the hunt for a hard cider in a larger glass bottle (not a 6 pack) and they had one. Plus they had some hard ciders from local breweries which was great. I think they have a pretty good selection of items. They have a large walk in fridge with a bunch of choices (Mike's Hard Lemonade is my go to and they have a lot of flavors available). I like that they are located in this particular shopping center because it's right near the Giant and the Wine and Spirits. It really is one stop shop (well hop to one to the other but that's PA for you).

I've been going to SB&S for over 20 years. Loved seeing their inventory go from 10% micro to 90%…read moremicro over the past 2 decades. Nice selection of beer. Fair prices. Friendly service. They have a great selection of local pickles and chips in addition to beer. If you understand how beer is "distributed", you'll understand that SB&S isn't privy to all the offerings. As a small neighborhood distributor they have a good selection. It's a concrete beer bunker, what kind of ambiance do you want other than the walk in cooler?

When I pass through Harrisburg and I don't want to talk to anyone about my beer preferences, I stop…read morehere to get my unassuming box of cans, swipe my card, and go. This stop is convenient to the mass acreage of retail options in Lower Paxton Township. If you're not looking for anything special, this is a quick warehouse that probably has your top 20 choices. If you like cigars, you might find something in the walk-in humidor, but your best bet is to take one exit south and hit up the cigar place that also sells beer. They get points for being able to use their POS effectively, move the line without any conversation, and have things close enough to the door to avoid searching through aisles like the warehouse at the end of Raiders of the Lost Ark. I was a regular for over 15 years but I probably shared one friendly conversation about the weather in all that time. It's efficient, transactional, and reasonably priced.

I went to make a $65.00 purchase of a case of Guiness Stout Beer. After making the purchase I asked…read morefor a receipt and was told by the person on duty that that business did not give receipts for purchases. Finding this fishy I immediately returned the item and asked for a refund and the merchant agreed but refused my request to provide written proof that he had in fact cancelled the sale. At that point I called my credit union to report what happened after realizing that in spite of the cancellation the purchase had appeared on my bank statement as a pending transaction. I was advised by the credit union that if the cancellation was made the funds would be returned to my account within forty hours. I had my phone on speaker mode so the merchant heard every word I was saying to my credit union and repeated for the union rep that he had indeed cancelled the sale and that my funds would be returned to me. This was this past Friday and the credit union rep said within earshot of the merchant that if the transaction went through and the funds were still not returned to my account today, Monday, to call in and dispute the charge. This morning the funds were out of my account which means the business completed the transaction on its end even though the merchant on duty at the business told both myself and the credit union rep that he had cancelled the sale even though he had not, That's why I am posting this review and will be posting it elsewhere because to pull something like this proves that the business is dishonest and should be avoided at all cost.

I copied this from my BeerAdvocate review, but I still feel it is appropriate:…read more I used to live less than 2 miles from here and came here for some beers for guests to have since I had only a little homebrew on hand. The place is set up well, they have a clean interior, things are labeled and easy to find and the cooler while small, still has plenty of imports and craft instead of just BMC. The people running the register are able to give the kind of I expect from a case store and I didn't go asking for special orders so I didn't test them too much. I consider the selection pretty decent for the area since they had some recent seasonals it shows they rotate the stock. I would stop in here for a case if I was in the area, but there are place with just as good prices and better selection that I prefer.
