Bottleworks

This is definetely not my favorite beer store, they do have a lot of variety including many from all over the world and a good local selection as well, but staff are not very helpful. There is also no parking, it closes too early for a beer store, beer is very expensive (very little in the 2$ area). I also found it difficult to tell what beer was being sold in packs versus individual. No one offered me any assistance and some of the cases where the beer is stored are so dark you have to squint to see what's inside. They do have some sort of tap stuff going on near the back which appears like you might be able to order a glass of beer to drink while you look around but since no one ever spoke to me and no one was standing there I guess I will never know. Other beer stores in seattle area are better in my opinion. Pros: lots of beer Cons: unhelpful staff, poor lighting, no parking more

Bottleworks has got to be one of the best places to buy beer in the city of Seattle. But that's old news. Now you can also TRY beers at Bottleworks. They have several beers on draft and a long table with several stools that you can occupy while you sample or just drink while you shop. You can also select a bottle and open it up and enjoy it in the store. They have TONS of different beers - imports, domestics and craft brews. The staff is extremely knowledgeable about their product, so talk to them about what you like and ask them for suggestions. Plan to spend a little time... this isn't a shopping trip you'll want to rush. Pros: Beer selection, bar in back, helpful staff more
