SUPER HELPFUL! SUPER REASONABLE! We picked our wedding venue partly because of the way they do alcohol with B Town. You order what you want, they deliver it, they pick up the unopened bottles and 12 packs and then buy them back after the wedding. This is the most reasonable practice regarding alcohol we found in the industry. Also if you like particular craft beers, this business allows you to have that at the venue rather than the regular beers that the venue serves. The staff was very friendly and very helpful.

Sarah is amazing! We worked with B Town to provide the beer, wine and liquor for our wedding, and Sarah was awesome to work with. She has recommendations for drinks your guests would like, she knows how much to order, and she is responsive and timely. She went out of her way to look for Washington State wine for our wedding, and we ended up getting a nice Red Blend and Chardonnay from a winery in Washington that we love. B Town is a great liquor store! Thank you for helping make the bar at our wedding just perfect.

We contracted B Town Wine + Spirits as the beer/wine/liquor purveyor of our wedding in July of 2021. Their customer service and wedding packages are top notch and highly recommended. They allowed us to order what we thought we needed with the ability to sell back any unused/unopened bottles or cases of alcohol which afforded us peace of mind when ordering for so many guests. Sarah Strasser in particular was phenomenal. She was our main point of contact and made the process smooth and worry-free. Highly recommended!

Our son and his fiancé decided to have their wedding in Colorado. We were concerned on the logistics of how we could get the beverages for the wedding reception since their venue did not provide alcohol. Sarah at B town was so easy to work with and provided all information necessary to make the wedding reception a fun, no stress event. Sarah provided us with recommendations for alcohol and we were able to adjust according to our wants. After the reception was over B town also bought back any leftover alcohol, which was great since we flew to Colorado from Ohio and would have been unable to take any leftovers home with us. I would recommend B town for any our your party events.

We worked with B town to supply all the alcohol for our wedding and are so glad that we did. Sarah was so easy to work with and was available anytime we had questions or wanted to adjust the order. B town dropped off all the alcohol at the venue and bought back what we didnt use. That helped us save time, money and a lot of stress. We 100% recommend using B town for your events or as your go to liquor store.

We used B Town to provide liquor for our wedding last weekend and they were really great. I dont know if they do this for all weddings or if they have a special deal with our venue, but at the end of the wedding they bought back any *unopened* bottles of liquor/wine and packs of beer or cider. We had to keep what wed gotten into, but they gave us full price back on all the wine and stuff we didnt even open. Sarah was great to work with in terms of making all sorts of adjustments to their pre-arranged packages to upgrade a few liquors and add some of our favorite beer and cider they carry.

Sarah was amazing to work with throughout the entire process from beginning conversations to the execution on wedding day. She was quick to respond and answered all of our questions while providing advice and feedback. The ability to be flexible with our packages truly helped to make our wedding day everything we wanted. We would highly recommend B town Wine + Spirits for any wedding or special event needs.

Knowledgeable, friendly, woman-run store where I have never made a bad purchase. They have a really great eye for value for price wines. I cant wait for their tastings to begin again! Classy tastings with the wine reps themselves, in glass wine glasses, not nasty little plastic cups. So glad this store is in my neighborhood, but I would drive to it if it werent!

BTown provided the alcohol for my daughters wedding at Lionscrest Manor and they were awesome! Sarah helped pick out the beers and alcohol that would be most popular with the crowd we had coming and had it delivered in a timely fashion!! We didn’t have to worry about a thing!!

Sarah knows her wines and brings in some gorgeous varietals. Even better, she prices fairly. If she gets a deal, she always seems to pass it along to her customers. Wine tastings on Friday were great and Im looking forward to those starting up again, hopefully soon.

I love the relaxed no-pressure atmosphere of this store and the beverage ambassadors being the counter/register. If this was a bar/tavern, it would be the client as friends place where I would want to spend time. I really appreciate the variety of all beverages on the shelves. It’s my neighborhood “go-to”. They are also open minded enough to take customized suggestions. Really enjoy having this store in our neighborhood.Cheers!

I love this store! It has an excellent selection of alcoholic beverages, and knowledgeable staff. I believe they have the best lineup of Mezcal Ive seen in the area. Sara(h) is very knowledgeable about her stock, especially grapes-based concoctions. Any time Ive asked for a recommendation, she has steered me toward items which have become my favorites. As one reviewer said, the Surprise me route works every time. Whenever I hear or read about a special spirit Ive never tried, I go to B-Town first because the chances are they carry it.I appreciate the doggie cashier, who pops his head up from behind the counter to say hello. I believe biscuit tips are relished.I also appreciate that they are still enforcing COVID protocols and wearing face masks. I feel much safer shopping there because customers are required to wear masks. B-town offers disposable masks to those who forgot to bring their own. It is unfortunate that some individuals are not mature or civil enough to abide by simple rules designed to protect others.

A geat local store, with a very good wine selection. Ive shopped at B town several times and have found their knowledge of wines to be spot-on. For example, I needed some wine for a a paella diner and they were able to recommend great Spanish wines; both for the sangria and the paella.

I had a wonderful experience with B town wine & spirits. They brought beer and wine to our catered event and their selections were wonderful. After the event they picked up the unopened bottles of wine and the unopened six packs of beer and they gave us credit. It was service with a smile from Yvan. I will definitely recommend them and use they when I can. Excellent small business!

B Town is a fantastic little gem on the east side of Boulder. It’s not the biggest store, but it seems they focus on quality over quantity when it comes to stocking their shelves. The wine selection is vast and the folks there are very knowledgeable when it comes to picking the right bottle. The spirits shelves have some unique and sought after bottles you can’t find in other stores. They have regular beer tastings with some established brands as well as up and coming microbreweries in the area. The thing you can get at B town is a solid relationship with the team so that if you are looking for something specific, unique or interesting, they will work with you to find it.B town is a great alternative to the big box retailer with a neighborhood feel and a specialized selection of bottles you won’t find anywhere else around Boulder.

Fabulous selection of craft beer and wine and a knowledgeable staff.Even better the price point is on target with the larger retailers and yet you get a much more boutique experience. As a return customer it is fun to have them pick wines that will compliment your palette and remember and keep in stock your favorites. Single malt selection and friendly environment will keep me coming back for more.Thanks B Town!

My husband and I come to this, our neighborhood wine store, on a regular basis to find new wines and to learn something about how and where they are made. Trent, the owner, tells us that he likes to specialize in wines produced by the people who grow their own grapes--usually smaller family-run establishments. This appeals to us, as does the personal service and the great prices.No snooty oenophiles here--just people looking for a great wine at a good price. They will even keep a record of what you buy so you can go back and find a favorite at a later date. Highly recommended.

Review №42

Fantastic selection. When you move to a new town, you have to go through that process of finding all the good sources of essentials (grocers, doctors, hair dressers, dry cleaners, etc.) Well, I found my source of great variety in whiskeys, wine, and beer at B-town. I was blown away when I went to peruse the Scotch shelves and found four varieties of my favorite Scotch Distillery (usually I struggle to find a single bottle). If you think youd like to expand your palate and learn about different wines or liqueurs, this would be a great place to ask for some suggestions.

Review №43

The selection of wine and beer is excellent. I have gone to several wine tastings and really enjoyed some wines that I otherwise probably would not have tried. The people who work there are friendly and knowledgeable ... not at all pushy or snooty. I highly recommend this store. I have not been disappointed in anything they recommended.

You like wine, you love beer, you enjoy from time to time a hard liquor (tequila, whiskey, or - for me - grappa, or something else)? B-town is THE place for you!Wine tasting every (most) Friday (2-7 PM), and a happy troop of very helpful people that know their job and love to give you tips about the good wine to choose. Trent, the owner, is a true wine connoisseur (and lover) and it is always a pleasure to chat with him to get some recommendation. Did I told you also about the great price that are hard to beat in town? No seriously, just come and see by yourself!

Review №47

I cant recommend these guys. They have an OK selection of Bourbon/Scotch, but their attitudes ruin the whole experience. Theres no other way to put it, these guys are consistently rude to their customers. They are rude to your face, and they are rude on the phone.Dont believe me? Give them a call and ask them about a non-standard product. If they even bother to check, you will definitely get a rude response. Customer Service still matters, and these guys dont deserve your hard earned money. Take a look at some of these reviews carefully. Youll notice the pattern.

I highly recommend B Town Wine and Spirits, not only for the wine aficionado, but for those new to enjoying wine. This shop offers selections in all price ranges and for all pallets. Their wines reflect B Towns commitment to constantly updating the inventory with unique, uncommon, and high quality products. Although you can find the usual crowd pleasers, you may ask any of the very knowledgeable staff to guide you through their stock to find the new or unusual just right for you wines. They have a small but fantastic collection of liqueurs and other spirits as well as plenty of locally produced beer. Shopping at this establishment is a pleasure.

Stopped in after getting a coffee at ozo and was impressed to say the least. They have an amazing selection, they really know their stuff and they pass discounts they get off to their customers. I bought a $25 bottle of Chianti for $7.99.When I asked the owner what was wrong with it he laughed and told me that they liked to give people the opportunity to try something they normally wouldnt. Trent was great, super helpful. The prices were some of the best I have seen in town. I strongly recommend that you check this place out. They took over three months ago, remodeled and really did a great job.

Trent and his staff are always very friendly and knowledgeable about beer, wine and spirits. My Mom and I have been coming here since it opened and I would not recommend any other liquor store in Boulder over B Town. It has the neighborhood vibe but an excellent selection of hard to find items. The Thursday (beer) and Friday (wine) tastings are always fun and informative as well.This has been my go to place for years and now they have a specialty food store (Le Frigo) next door....cant beat that!

B Town is THE place to buy liquor. My husband and I stumbled upon Trent Shaoul (the owner of B Town) when he worked as the wine buyer at a previous liquor store location. We found that he had an amazingly good grasp of just which wines we liked. So when we heard that he was opening up B Town -- we followed him there. Now we simply walk in (or call in) and tell Trent what we are looking for, and in minutes he will make up a case of wines that consistently delights us. And he surprises us with new finds, so we are always discovering new wines that are really wonderful. Trent knows his wines! Even if you dont live right near this store (we certainly dont!), it is totally worth the trip. You will not be disappointed!~F & R Theo

B Town is one of Boulders hidden gems. Whether youre into good wines, the latest micro brews or fine boutique spirits - youre likely to discover something new and remarkably delicious at this shop. Need a special gift or wanna treat yourself to a fine new tequila, bourbon, gin or Chardonnay? Go in and ask for the owner, Trent. Tell him what you like (or who youre buying for) and hell make some impressive recommendations. Weve never been disappointed.There are dozens of neighborhood liquor stores that carry the familiar and common brands. This isnt one of them. This is truly a unique store with a carefully curated selection and an owner who knows whats in every bottle. Many items are limited productions, well-priced and deliriously yummy! Were fortunate to live nearby and love supporting this cool, local shop. Same plaza as OZO, Le Frigo and Pica - and all are worth checking out if youre serious about the quality of what you consume. And no - I have no stake in this business - except wanting to see it thrive. Definitely our first stop over Hazels or Liquor Mart.

Great little store that packs a lot of punch. I tend to pop in from time to time for a variety of newer beer releases, pinot noirs, and quality rye whiskey offerings. Im not typically inclined to write reviews, but a recent occurance motivated me to do so..I purchased some whiskey from Btown then saw the same whiskey on a flash sale from Hazels a day later- I was immediately bummed that I could of saved money spending it elsewhere. After emailing the store about their return policy, they responded immediately and offered two options: to return the whiskey or I could accept a gift card for the difference in price between the two stores. Awesome! Great costumer service makes me want to keep coming back here and supporting the smaller local business. Cheers guys-Patrick

Review №72

I was a big fan of Ace before it closed down, mainly as a result of Trents skill at finding bottles that I wouldnt ever have managed to find elsewhere: a 1998 pomerol to celebrate the birth of my daughter (and, four years later, another bottle of the same wine that hed squirreled away, just in case), a case of riesling that Im still hoarding after 6 years. And so I was delighted when I found out about B Town which, if Im honest, makes Ace look like a poor relative. The stores wonderfully laid out and, almost alone among liquor stores, wonderfully light (it makes a difference, oddly enough, although Im not sure why) and the selection fabulous. Once again, Trent, now with Yvan, seems to have a knack for finding absolute gems that you wont find anywhere else (and believe me, Ive looked) and for finding them at prices that even those of us who always want things just a little bit cheaper are going to jump at. They still have everything youd want from a liquor store of this caliber - good Bordeaux, The Prisoner, Lioco, and so on, and a fabulous beer and spirits selection - but its the unusual finds that make this place for me. Bar none, the best liquor store in Boulder.

Review №73

Are you busy? I am. Do you value perspective and peripheral knowledge when youre indulging? I do. Will you pay more for superior customer service? Id rather not!B-town liquors, more specifically Trent and Ivvan (sorry if I spelled it wrong), believe that expertise and customer service shouldnt have to cost more. Trent and Ivvan are both gifted Sommeliers, with an emphasis in delivering solid value for the dollar. Trent specializes in both thrifty and top-end reds, while Ivvan is your champagne, white wine, and French wine expert. They find the $10 bottles that taste like the $25 bottles and they pass that insight and saving on to you. Did I mention the case discounts, and customer loyalty program? Of course if you, like me, like to splurge once in a while they also know the top end...very well. Furthermore, they have an impressive selection of distilled and high proof liquors (Daddy needs his medicine, after all) at competitive prices (and many rare brands). I am a bourbon, tequila, vodka man. Gin is for crazies! Not judging.These guys have a vision! How many liquor stores have that? They believe that luxury should be for everyone. Whatever your price point, they have a quality offering and they believe that their personal service, experience, and competitive price will keep you coming back. I believe it too.Go talk to them, dont buy a thing. Just go talk. Tell them what you like. They have wine tastings, whisky tastings, many fringe customer benefits and they value relationships. Chances are, youll find everything youre looking for, or theyll order it for you. I havent even mentioned their craft beer or other special offerings (a wide assortment of bitters, for instance). Tell them Christopher Kraser sent you, and theyll treat you like family. I love these guys and you will too!
