    Goebel Liqour Wichita Kansas. They have over 1400 different types of beer. They use special lights so as not to harm the beers, they track the freshness of beers, have friendly and knowlegeable staff. Their beers are priced very reasonable and they age bigfoot and dont jack up the price. Top notch store and by far and away the best I have ever been to. A+

    The only reason I left Full Throttle off is because I haven't made it down there yet. Agree on Beer Junction too, haven't been to the new store yet though. If I lived closer to West Seattle I'd be a regular there.

    Bottle Revolution- Raleigh, NC Ted, the owner, is the man and always has tastings and a run club weekly. Just a great atmosphere.

    Tasty Beverage- Raleigh, NC (Bottle Revolution gets most of my $ but, tasty is still a good beer store w/ a great staff as well.)

    Bruisnin Ales- Asheville, NC If you ever find your self in Beer City, USA make sure you dont leave without stopping by.

    Ramirez Liqour East LA- Cannot for the life of me find a cheaper store with such a good selection. Alex and Carlos are top notch guys and the rest of the staff is cool too.

    Stearns in Long Beach-Danny is super knowledgeable and so is the rest of the staff. We all knew that already tho no?

    My top two that I have visited.

    Salud!

    Edit- Forgot to include Whole Foods in Long Beach!

    Another vote for Tasty Beverage Co. in Raleigh. Great people running it, an excellent layout, a bar in the back so that you can have a beer while you shop or just hang out, lots of tastings, great selection, etc. So nice not to have to drive to Durham anymore for some of the things that were previously pretty much only available at Sam's.

    Dranken Geers, located at Ledergemstraat 7 B9041 Oostakker - Belgium (just outside Gent).

    Fantastic selection of beer from around the world, many of which are not often (or ever) found in the US, and at excellent prices. The service is very good as well.

    Place is awesome and they give you bigger discounts if you purchase a certain amount. Saved $52 last time I was there.
