Grocery store liquor department, not expecting much but it was in between Front Street and Bent River. Grabbed two bottles of Boulevard limited series and the manager as he walked by said "Someone’s buying some good beer" Yeah, that was about it in terms of beer. There was the usual New Belgium, Goose Island and other regional offerings, but not too much in terms of craft beer. But our community rated those bottles at 94 and 96, so the trip was worth it.

This store is about a mile from my house. Pretty nice selection for a chain grocery store. The brands mentioned by jpm30 are everpresent on the shelves. Not a knowledgable beer group, wine is more their forte. Not worth the effort if you’re looking for something out of the ordinary.

This HyVee Wine & Spirits is the second best beer store I’ve found in the Quad Cities area, on either side of the river. You will find one row of warm imports and micros in the middle of the store and in back, a long open shelved cooler. This store has Chimay and Lindemans, with no other Belgians. You will find selections from Breckenridge, Flying Dog, Capital, Sam Adams, Saranac, Sierra Nevada and Rogue, including a selection of bomber bottles by the front counter, but no Millstream is to be found. A decent import selection, the usual imports, Bass, Guinness, etc..., plus a few German and Czech beers and a good selection of Samuel Smith beers. They also have all your usual Mexican beers that you find everywhere. Service is hands off, just one or two cashiers at the front counter and no one I’ve met here is beer knowledgeable. This is just a barely average store, but I’m afraid it’s one of the better stores in the Quad Cities. Sad. You can buy Powerball tickets at the service counter in the grocery store.

Pretty good selection for a supermarket. Nice choices of local micros and micros from outside Iowa, Illinois. Watch for dates, I got a pretty old bottle of Bad Elf and Santa’s Entire Butt. Need to add a mix and match section.
