Why these places are in here I will never know. Just really not a beer destination at all, they more specialize in home furnishings with a small selection of coffee and beer in the back of the store. Nothing crazy here at all, DFH, Natty Greens, and a bunch of very common imports. Thy probably had more glasses then anything else and the prices were without a doubt the highest I saw. Not a place I would recommend going to for beer at all as there are much better stops in the area and there is little to nothing that you cannot get down the street.

I recently stopped in this store, figured I'd check out the beer selection.
The beers were spread out slightly around the back of the store. They had one end cap of individual 12oz bottles, bombers and six-packs along the back wall and a couple of displays near the front of the store. Quality was pretty good.
The selection is decent as well. A nice little selection of imports and micros, but not a tremendous amount of brews. I found a few I hadn't seen before like Okocim porter and Siberian Night. The singles were priced better than other places I had been to.
Service was pretty good and the staff was friendly. I only saw the Siberian Night in a six pack and asked if they could sell me just one bottle. The employee was kind enough to check with the manager and sure enough it rang up individually.
Overall its a nice store. I would stop in to find the occasional new brew, but I'd say its not a place I would frequent often.

Stopped by here this afternoon when in the area. They carry a decent amount of craft and foreign brews, but nothing that different from my World Market in W-S. Their setup is a little weird, as the beers are sort of spread all around a few aisles, but not really all together. Not the best organization. They carry a good amount of singles, most priced below $1.99, so a mixed sixer would be pretty reasonable. I saw some selections from Duck-Rabbit, Terrapin, Stone, Victory, Bell's, Highland, French Broad, etc. Not too bad for this area of town. A decent stop for some good beer. Check it out.

I love going to this place from time to time to check out their beers as they keep a pretty good selection and will usually have some seasonal choices available.
The quality seems decent enough. I've never had a bad beer from here and from what it seems they rotate at least some of their stock on a regular basis.
Not much service to speak of. The staff is friendly but they're clueless as to the beer selection; might as well be non-existant.
Selection is decent with mostly imports but some decent micros available as well. I've seen the Bell's Cherry Stout there which I haven't seen anywhere else in Greensboro. Lots of German and Belgian stuff.
Every single is $1.89, which while high for some beers is a great price for others. Worth going to and picking up some beers that otherwise might cost more per single. Most of their six and twelve packs of imports seem to be in line with the competetion, sometimes more sometimes less.
It's not the best place to go, but if you're seeking out a couple of new brews for what might end up being a bit cheaper, World Market may have what you need. I go there often to pick up a mixed six pack, and find that they always have something worth buying.
