Best Liquor store in BR area

Total Wine just opened up here, so they'll probably be the cheapest overall.

My favorites are Bin Q and Martins Wine Cellar.

Bin Q has a decent selection, not the cheapest price-wise. But, they're friendly, helpful, and will often have open bottles at the counter for sampling.

Martin's has a limited selection, but sometimes that's nice to avoid choice paralysis. I find their liquor prices very well priced and affordable. They also sometimes have wine sampling.

Other than that, you can always go to Costco. If you're buying by the handle, that might be the place to go. I don't think you need to be a member to buy alcohol.

I love Bin Q but their beer prices are borderline criminal. Doesn’t help that they don’t put price labels on most of their beer.

No. State law says you can buy liquor at Costco or Sam’s without a membership. The door people won’t know this, and the manager they summon may not know it.

When I did this years ago, they had to phone corporate and ask before allowing me to do so.

You'll have slightly more bourbon & whiskey variety at Total Wine, with competitive pricing. I don't do those particular liquors but I would imagine if you're just trying to get mixers, either try Total Wine or Costco.

Your local grocery stores are going to have markups and smaller bottles, generally speaking.

These states allow you to legally buy alcohol from Costco without a membership:

Arizona
California
Connecticut
Delaware
Hawaii
Indiana
Massachusetts
Michigan
Minnesota
New York
Texas
Vermont

A lot of great options have been mentioned already, but I'd check Calandros on Government and at Perkins at Siegen. They have a great whiskey selection.

Albertsons is close to the Burbank soccer fields, brah.

Calandors

Calandros usually has a few different barrell picks at a time for some good bourbons.
