Yelp
So the outside's a little dirty, and the inside's a little dingy. Don't let that fool you - they have a nice selection, particularly of craft and local brews, and the prices aren't too bad, especially for the area. The staff are all knowledgeable and helpful - if they have something in, they'll tell you about it, and if not, they'll let you know if they'll have it in soon and recommend something similar if you ask. Their liquor selection is also pretty solid, and they have some interesting local stuff along the back wall.
If you have a lot to carry, they'll either help you carry it to your car or give you a few boxes to make it easier.
Make doubly sure you have your ID on you - they will ID you if you look under 40, every time. (I'm 21 and they squint to make sure it's me.) I tried with an old licence once, having had both old and new in my wallet, and they spotted it.
It's a great place to pick up a sixer of something good after going shopping at Whole Foods.
