Will be in College Station on business for a couple days next week. I won't have a whole lot of free time so I want to mek the most of any I have. Staying on Campus and Google tells me that "Western Beverage" is a short walk from my room. Is that place worth even looking for a decent selection? Specs is about 5 miles away, short drive. Is that branch decently stocked? Are there any other places, or better spots I should try? (for bottles to carry back home) Thanks
I like Harvey Washbangers. Although, I'm not the most objective source since they're a customer of ours. http://washbangers.com/
Does Washbangers sell bottles/bombers to go? The website makes it out to be a restaurant/bar (and laundromat).
They have growlers to go, not sure about bottles. But I do recall seeing JK bombers in the location. There is a specs very close to that location as well that you could walk to that has a great selection. The HEB (grocery store) next to Harvey's also has a very good beer selection.
I'll be staying at the Comfort Suites on E University. The map shows Specs to be 5+ miles away. Not sure I want to walk that far being it is my first visit to the city, but I will have a car, so driving is fine. I'd just rather maximize my stops at the places with the better selection.....Yeh, hoping to find some JK to bring home.
There is a specs on Harvey by Harvey Washbangers, if this is the one you are looking at. If so I would highly recommend checking that place out as I remember seeing a lot of Jester King in there. The HEB in that area will also have a good bottle selection.
You can take bottles to go as well. I 2nd the Specs on Harvey and the HEB next to Washbangers as well. You're in luck as bottles tend to sit around longer in College Station as opposed to Houston.
It's been a few years, but the Comfort Suites is a ways down University from the campus. You'll be driving quite a bit...
Well, my business meetings are at the hotel. The distances to the various stores I got from google maps.
There seems to be more than one Specs in College Station. Any opinions which has larger/ better selection?
