    What are some good craft beer bottle/can stores in the Grand Rapids area?

    Siciliano's Market is by far one of the best. Also
    G.B Russo & Son International Grocery and Art of the Table are good.

    These are the places I usually hit up:

    All have incredible selection and really great customer service. Honestly, it's almost difficult to come to the area and not stumble upon great beer. Pretty much doesn't matter what direction you go, you're a short drive away from an awesome bottle shop. There are even some good ones closer to the lakeshore. Damn, why am I leaving again?

    Headed to GR this weekend. Probably a long shot but does anyone know of anywhere that might still have a few bottles of KBS?

    Sorry, @bigtizz123... Not going to happen. Going to have to set up a trade.

    Good luck!

    Siciliano's is great, with great people.

    The sleepers are Art of the Table, and Wealthy St. Market, about 1/2 mile away from each other.

    Oh Horrock's! Love that place.

    There are a lot!

    Sicilano's has a one of the best selections in the area. I personally prefer GB Russo as I feel it gets less traffic so you are more likely to find harder to get beers (No Rules, Mirror Mirror, Abyss, etc.). Also I think GB Russo's prices are on par and for somethings better than Sicialano's

    Just FYI if anyone is interested. Was in GR this weekend from Cleveland. Was shocked to find Xocoveza at International Beverage on Cascade. I grabbed two sixers and there were more on the shelf. This stuff was damn near impossible to find in the Cleveland area, especially in that quantity. I would've bought more since it's incredible but at $18/6pk I wanted to take home a bunch of other local Michigan only brews. Also a cool store with a ton of brews. I'd check dates but there are gems to be had in there.
