    The Good Hop (Oakland) - Bottle shop and taproom.

    Ledger's (Berkeley) - Big bottle shop, including a bunch of international brews and Russian River stuff (Pliny the Elder)

    I found a listing on Yelp for a "Star Grocery" on Claremont in Berkeley. Is this what you're talking about? Thanks for the suggestions, btw. Which WF has the best selection?

    Yes, that's the one. Small selection but good stuff. I've only ever been to the WF near Lake Merritt, so I can't compare.

    Second thread in a row where I'm going to mention Craft here in Alameda. I swear to you I don't work there, I just spend a ton of money there and have a vested interest in making sure they stick around since it's so local to me.
