Hey, I'm heading out to Syracuse this morning for the weekend. Any good bottle shop recommendations? Distro probably isn't that much different than Albany, but I know there's some. I'll be there through Sunday, helping out at the new Trader Joes that's opening today. Don't know how much time I'll have, but definitely want to check out the scene a little. Any info will be helpful, thanks...
Since your going to be at the new Trader Joe's you should check out Party Source on Erie Blvd. Should only be about a mile down the street. If you have some extra time keep going down Erie Blvd and stop for a beer and a bite at JRyans Pub. Great beer selection their.
I would hit up the Syracuse Food Coop, they always has some good stuff, otherwise the other shops listed on this site are nothing amazing. Also, BMme and we can meet up for some beers
www.thirstypug.com, I've got a shop in Auburn, about a 20-25 minute drive from Syracuse. There's a beermenus tab on the site also, if you'd like to check out the inventory before hand.
party source, brilbecks and the coop are your best bets. Galeville has truly become hit or miss, to the point I don't even go out there unless I know they have specifically what I'm looking for, if you go, check dates very carefully. Some stuff has been sitting there are LONG time.
