Pretty decent and similar to other Binnys...I don’t think the selection was as good though...

I was exceedingly lucky the first time I stopped here.. they somehow had Cantillon Loerik on the shelves. Subsequent trips yielded very little (if anything) I didn’t see in other Chicago area stores (although I was there when they got a case of Kentucky Breakfast in). It’s another large, bright, open warehouse-type locale with friendlier service than most. This is the best selection I found in the immediate area.

Quite comparable to the other Binny’s in the area. Good selection of imports and micros, but I think that both the Glen Ellyn and Naperville shops are better. Worth stopping in. I picked up two "new" brews, so I was happy.

My frame of reference is the only other Binny’s I’ve been to, Glen Ellyn. Very similar stores, but I believe this one is bigger. Beer-wise, very similar selections, but my impression was that Glen Ellyn had a couple of more special, hard-to-find selections. Buffalo Grove has the new Sam Adams 4-packs, not that that is hard-to-find. Not knowing the Buffalo Grove beer scene, I have to imagine it is one of if not the best selections in the area. So, if you are in the area, it’s worth a stop. I didn’t have occasion to get any service, as I quickly walked in, looked around and left. I did have someone say hello to me as I left, so that was good.

Typical regional line-up, which is solid, but there were absolutely no surprises. Expect Goose Island, Founders, Three Floyds, Avery, Capital, Bells, some Victory, the usual Belgian and German brews, etc. I had my heart set on landing some more Jolly Pumpkin but they told me (after several times on my part to convince them that it wasn’t a seasonal fall beer line) that they stopped ordering it because it wasn’t selling. Only redeeming quality (and purchase) was a sixer of 2004 Victory Old Ho that they had on clearance. Suckers.

Not the best of the binny’s. Particularly poor given the affluent town that it is situated in. Just run of the mill selection. Nothing notable, at all.

This is the Binnys I normally go to, since I can hit it at lunch time during workdays. They definitely don’t have the selection or dedication to beer that the gang in Schaumburg does. I can never find Westy or some of the other 6 trappist brews at this one. On the otherhand, they’ve always snapped to attention to help me with wine or soft drink selection.
