This place carries Stone for the east coasters! IPA, Ruination, EPIC, Arrogant Bastard, etc. I was shocked.

Better than O.K. selection for a grocery store that can sell beer. Way better prices than bottle shops in Pittsburgh, PA.

Nice store, but walk outside this place and you have a bunch of homeless people hanging out a half block away, and I was solicited twice to donate to the ACLU. You can park below in the garage and get validated for two hours of free parking. Nice small but decent selection considering it’s a grocery store. Bombers must be sold in pairs, and they do not sell singles. They carry Belgians and a good line of domestics including Great Divide, Bells, Stone, Victory, Dominion, Brooklyn, etc. Store is rather busy, so you are pretty much on your own as far as service.

Just bought a single 500 ml cold bottle of Zywiec Porter at the Wilson BLVD location. Spent a few weeks in Poland this summer. Not a big fan of porters, but was curious about it. Very good. Decent selection for a neighborhood supermarkt.

Does not sell singles. Their liquor license will not allow for it, so they sell 22oz bottles in pairs. Found Rogue Dad’s Little Helper and Harpoon Saison 2x22oz for $10. Other six-packs are available, most of the local/regional stuff such as Magic Hat. Nothing rare located here, however it was the only beer store in DC which I visited that had the Rogue Dad’s Little Helper, and even though I didn’t want to buy two for $10, I bit. Otherwise, it’s a normal Whole Foods, I mean how different are any of them?

A decent enough place, a lot of six packs available, many cold, but most are put out for sale in the wine/beer section of the store. Cold selections vary from Corona and Yuengling at a reasonable price to regional specialties from Victory, Clipper City, Dominion, Dogfish Head, Brooklyn Ales, and many other Eastern brewers. Several decent Belgian selections are also available. The service is almost non-existent for beer, at least that has been my experience. There are usually some good prices for sixpacks of decent beer and wine. I really like living less than a block from this Whole Foods, quite nice.
