    I am going to be in Naples this Sat for a week. Family vacation, so I cannot venture to cycle ba day, yadda yadda. Looking for serious advice from locals in the know. What bottle shops in or very near Naples are worth checking out? Anyone with person experience of a store that might have a few hidden gems?

    Cheers!

    The odd bird avatars seem to be in good communication, so really don't even need to say much more.

    Naples doesn't really have any hidden gem type stores, but there are a few well known places that get the fun special release stuff regularly. Stick with Total Wine Naples and Whole Foods in Mercato for nice variety of bottles, but really nothing extraordinary from a FL new/recent release perspective.

    Have been seeing more Cycle on draught, which is a great thing. Momentum Brewery (off Bonita Beach Rd) and Naples Beach Brewery are the two best local breweries I've had.

    Have fun while you're here!

    If your around downtown Naples check out Avenue Wine on 5th Ave and RipTide Brewing.
    Saturday Bonita is having a craft beer festival...

    Not sure exactly when youre leaving, but March 5th is Naples Craft Beer fest. Riptide is alright, their brewer Jack was a fun guy to talk to. I think March will be the last month Avenue is open for good as the building is being demolished. Bummer as I love that place.

    I like the Total Wine & ABC stores for bottles.
