After seeing the reviews here, I took a trip from Trenton to Burlington. Note that Circle Liquors Super Saver (a great craft singles selection) is like 5 minutes from where I live. When I walked in, I saw the fridge with two sections of singles and craft beer and was disappointed. Then I turned the corner and my jaw dropped. I met Mike within 15 minutes of showing up, and he was a whirlwind of help. I’d go as far as to say that he is one of the few people who have the ability and will to influence the alcohol retail industry in the greater Trenton Area who also truly get the new surge in the appreciation of craft beer. He spent time finding out my tastes, making suggestions, and he pulled out a few special bottles he thought I might enjoy, each of which I purchased. The selection is not to be believed, and it is all due to Mike. Great place, great selection, and unbelievable service. Thanks, Mike.

Micros here are plentiful. Mike always has new products coming in every week. He carries Stone, Southern Tier, Dogfish, Rogue ect... Prices are reasonable enough for the product. I would recomend stopping in if your in the area for a look around the place. The staff is very knowledable and helpful.

I’ve been to this liquor store a few times and everytime I go there the micro section expands.  The store is not the cleanest facility around, but I do not expect liquor stores to smell like furniture stores.  They had Stone, Left hand, Southern Tier,  Chimay, Cpt. Lawrence, Mikeller, Nogne, Troegs.  They had three windows of micro beers  in the refrigerator.  Most liquor stores will dedicate two shelves to their micros if your’re lucky.  I recommend this place.

I stopped by on 12/31while visiting friends for the New Year and I was taken by total surprise by the vast selection in this warehouse of spirits and beer. The place was jamming with customers, but the guys still helped me find the regular beer section. I was shocked by the low prices and the great selection. I picked a Westmalle Dubbel 750ml, K-O Belgian, and a Fantome Saison. There was good selection of Fantome bottles which I had not seen anywhere. I was also knocked out by the Scotch selection. This was a landmark find and I look forward to returning.

The Beer Guy takes the time to provide help in searching for beers and adds his input. He takes pride in the Beer Wall he’s built. Nice selection of 22 OZ. beers. You can mix six packs to try new flavors, without going broke. Tried 12 Seasonal beers by mixing ’em up in December ’07. Uses rateBeer ratings. Convenient location (near 295).

This has quickly become my go to place in NJ. Selection of single bottles expands every month. Everything from Cantillion to Deus, rare Italian brews, just got some Nogne Dark horizon even! Mikeller, Stone, Capt Lawrence, etc. Best of all, its 10 mins from my house (danger!). Mike the beer guy knows his stuff.

Mike (beer guy) does the best job he could do finding rarities. Even though he has trouble with one distributor it still doesn’t stop him from what he gets his hands on. Its sad that he has only limited area. I can only dream about what he could do with more space. He carries Rogue, Southern Tier, Smuttynose, Weyerbacher, Captain Lawrence, DogFish Head, and Lagunitas just to name a few. I highly recommend this place.

Nice liquor shop off of Rt 541. Expanding selection of micros. Lots to choose from Dogfish Head,Victory,Weyerbacher, Rogue, Troegs,Stone,Lancaster,Rochefort,Smuttynose,Lagunitas as well as many others. Singles are available which wasnt the case before. A few Belgiums to choose from. Mike the Beer Guy let me break up a few six packs to purchase as singles. They used to carry Three Floyds, but I havent seen any my last few trips there.
