I think this is a first for me, a second update for a total of 3 reviews of the same business. And…read more2021 seems to be a year for updates as well. I can thank a global pandemic for renewing and invigorating my interest in fine spirits, and this shop in particular for having a depth of variety not found elsewhere in Hamilton or neighboring towns. Lately my drink of choice has been wine and cocktails, but previously and during the height of Covid, I became immersed in sours and ciders. This place has both in abundance, in fact I don't think it's possible to try all of them, as they keep getting new ones in. My trip today to find a new sour proved fruitful( pun intended) but also time consuming. I have learned from experience that it's helpful to bring my reading glasses with me, there's just so much new stock to view and labels seem smaller every year. Along with old favs I saw a number of new sours and settled on the lesser of 2 pricey options. I may have gone with the pricier one had there been someone with experience of the brewery and firsthand knowledge of its pedigree. That will probably haunt me until I go back and shell out the $ to try it myself;) I also took some time today to peruse the Scotch selection, which is also a favorite of mine in cooler weather. That is what prompted me to update this. It may not be the biggest of known shops to me, but the prices are amazing. I noticed that some of those items are on sale. There is no clear signage except for a small shelf tag which on some items show previous price. The specific item I was pricing was about $5 less than a place I thought was the lowest, this item was not on sale either. It appeared to be very nice gift boxy bottles from last holiday that were $10 or more off of the original. I'm definitely going back to take advantage of at least one of those. I also spent more time in the wine aisles. Again great prices on some of the more upscale but still widely available Ca wineries. I think the selection is very good but again not quite as good as Canals. However I think they will match or beat most prices. Customer service in general is very good, esp at the checkouts. I think having a wine/ and or beer expert around at all times would be beneficial to this store. I asked again while at the register and was told he would be in later in the day. So it seems that this is a q they get and there is an expert on hand some of the time. It's also cool that they have food trucks around on the weekends. There are in store tastings too which I've not had a chance to try. Definitely my favorite liquor store by far for this extended area. Thanks for carrying so much local and craft brew items!

My favorite liquor store in the area! It's maybe not the absolute best I've ever seen, but it's…read morepretty darn close. The beer options are excellent, with tons of different stuff to try. I'm a huge fan of Belgians and they have a pretty decent selection, although I wouldn't complain if it was a tiny bit more extensive :) Plenty of variety packs and a huge fridge full of stuff ranging from cheap college swill (which I like, depending on my mood!) to crazy craft beers that I'll probably never buy because they're a little too expensive. Staff are helpful and the lines move reasonably quickly. I've never tried the food trucks but it's definitely a cool option to have on site. I don't usually drink wine or liquors but the many, many shelves of both tell me that you're probably in luck if you're looking for something :) Overall, this place is one of my staples and I'll continue to shop here when I'm looking for something new, interesting, and affordable.

Since I pretty much only drink beer, I can't really comment on the wine and liquor selection, but the shelves seem pretty full of different options to me :) Prices are OK - maybe a tiny bit higher than larger stores, but nothing crazy. The aisles are kind of tight and you can end up having to wait for a second to avoid creating a traffic jam with other customers, but not a big deal. Service is friendly and effective. Overall, I will continue to shop here when I'm lazy and don't want to make the trip to larger liquor stores in the area :)

Look, unless you're an obnoxiously hard to please oenophile who will only tolerate some obscure vintage from the Loire Valley then Wegmans selection is to be considered vast and more than adequate for 99.9% of your drinking needs. Most important, they are staffed with knowledgeable pros who can keep your wanderings to a minimum. A vast improvement over their overcrowded digs previously. See you on the Dark Side of the Moon.
