Angotti Beverage

First the location is not the same as has been shown here, on Main Street. It moved several years ago, and is now more downtown, on Jackson at Ellicott, right behind the Center Street Smokehouse. Good selection of international beers and seasonals. Prices aren’t as good as Consumers, but I spotted a couple of sales and discontinueds that made the trip over worth it. They also carry a small supply of brewing supplies. Not bad for Batavia.

Decent sized beer store that you can kind of tell is Beers of the World’s little brother. Good selection of regional micros and imports. Actually, it’s nice that they don’t have so many ancient garbage lagers from every corner of the globe cluttering up the store like BOTW has. The staff is pretty much non-existent so no real comment there. There are plenty of better beer stores out there, but if you’re in Batavia, it’s worth a stop

Angotti is apparently connected to Beers of the World. It is sometimes easier in travelling the shortcut trough the 63 to New York and New Jersey to pass by here, and get gas across the street. One problem is neither will let you use their bathroom, which makes choosing beer a bit of a strain. It is a clean store devoted primarily to beer, with a lower selection than Beers of the World but still a very good one. Singles bottles of everything allowed, yes! Belgium is OK, US micros well above average selection. Glasses and steins selection excellent.
