One of the best craft beer stores in NH! Great selections, knowledgeable staff. I really enjoy their discount for continuing to reuse the six pack box and on singles. I will continue coming back for more!
I’ve been going to The Packie since they first opened. I was pretty new to craft beer at the time, so having Jon there to help was great as he’s very knowledgeable and personable. I usually ask Jon for a suggestion on a beer to try and he’s always happy to help.I really enjoyed the “free beer Friday’s” before the pandemic where vendors would come in and customers could try samples of different beers before buying them. I also really like that they offer all the beers in singles so I don’t need to buy a 4 or 6 pack only to discover I didn’t like a beer. They have a huge selection, and consider suggestions on what beers they should bring in.Their new location is very convenient and right off the highway. I love having such an awesome selection of beers so close-by.I have recommended this store to many people and will continue to do so. Keep up the good work!
An amazing experience! A good selection too. Love that I went in with a vague idea of what beer my dad likes and the staff was so kind in helping me narrow down what would be a good choice. Love the mask requirement as that makes me feel safe. Keep up the amazing work.
I have visited my share of local craft beer stores and I LOVE the Packie. They have an amazing beer selection that they keep updated on untappd, frequent posts on social media so you know what is new and delicious- plus they have done a phenomenal job navigating the pandemic. I have ordered online for curbside pick up more than once, which is incredibly easy. However I also feel safe going to the store, which is great when I just dont know what I want to get. Its also very organized, and they have singles, which is great! I know that if Jon, the owner recommends an IPA, its going to be delicious. I know that if the other person I often speak to, whose name I dont know, recommends a stout, its going to be wonderful. The selections, recommendation, and cleanliness is all top notch. Thank you for all that you do!
The Packie is an amazing craft beer store. My husband and I have been shopping with them since just after opening, through the pandemic, all the while having great chats with Jon and seeing his babies and wife in the store. Such an amazing family and running an amazing business. I highly recommend a visit and give this small business the praise it deserves. He did a fantastic job staying open and providing a safe pick up system during the lockdown last year. We love The Packie!!!
Great selection of everything in such a small shop. Definitely going back
Amazing service and outstanding selection. They receive beers from all over the world. I love coming here because you can find different beers each time you come. Their customer service is top notch to help you find your next great beer! Plus they have options to order online and either pickup yourself or drop curbside in these trying times. I have been to a lot of beer stores in my time across the US and these guys are the top of the peak in all aspects. You have yourself a customer for life!
I just love it here. The selection is well organized and varies all over the craft beer spectrum. I can always find something new to try. The employees are knowledgeable, and quick to lend a hand with suggestions.They carry lots of local breweries, which is a great way to support craft NH brewers in one stop.
The owners are some of the nicest people Ive ever met. They are very conscientious about quality, selection, and most of all, CUSTOMER SERVICE. Highly recommended. Go check them out - you wont be disappointed.If you are bothered by a very reasonable mask policy during a pandemic, they also offer full curbside service with access to their entire inventory.
Love this place! The owner is always super helpful and friendly. They offered delivery service during COVID which was AMAZING and even doing curb side pick up before they were open again for walk ins I thought they handled COVID protocol in a very smart and safe way. Amazing selection, very clean and organized. I’m big on sours personally and the selection this place has is MINT. I honestly can’t recommend this establishment highly enough. The Packie should be your go-to local craft beer store, no questions asked!
They have a great selection and rotate it pretty regularly. Love when they get Branch and Blade as this is one of my favorite breweries. The staff is always friendly and five great advise on beers to try. Have been going to this place for a couple years now and love it!
The Packie has a fantastic selection of beer, cider, mead and wine. Owner Jon and all staff have been very friendly and knowledgeable in helping me find what I’m looking for. Love that they allow you to make your own 6 pack with singles (and that you get a discount for getting 6 singles + when you bring the pack back!) Would highly recommend this store for all your beer needs.
We went in for the first time about a month ago to pick up Holy Donut. We were like kids in a candy store with all the excellent choices. The staff was friendly and gave us excellent customer service. We appreciate the COVID precautions which always indicates a business willing to take care of their employees and customers! We’ll definitely stop in again when we’re in the neighborhood!
The Packie is easily the best craft beer store around. John and the staff are super friendly and willing to go the extra step to help you find what you’re looking for. Great place and I love supporting this business when I’m in need of some new local brews.
Love this store and it is a must visit for beer enthusiasts or people just looking for different selections from what you find at the grocery store or gas station. The guys here are extremely knowledgeable and willing to help as needed, whether it be providing recommendations based on what you like or helping you try things to venture outside of your comfot zone and educating you along the way. They have a wide variety of styles from local to national brands and have something for everyone regardless of your preferences. The store is clean and organized in a way that is easy to browse so check it out when you have a chance!
Friendly and knowledgeable. Great selection of all styles with new breweries coming in constantly. Jon always seems to hit the nail on the head when making a recommendation.New location is nice too, just off the highway so it is easy to get to and leave.
We love The Packie! They have an amazing selection of craft beer and ciders (even the hard to get beers @Spyglass Brewing Company). The beer team there always has a great recommendation for anything you might like. Highly recommend!!
This store is the 💣. Lots of good beer to choose from. I’ve been going here since it was at the old location on South Willow. The owner, Jon, is a great guy who will help you choose new beers based on your preferences and tastes. What used to be an overwhelming and sometimes confusing process of beer selection, is much easier with The Packie’s offerings and the owner’s knowledge.Highly recommend if you live in or around greater Manchester.
Top-tier beer store with a very friendly and knowledgeable staff. Excellent and organized selection of really nice and local NH, ME, and VT craft beers. Highly recommended. (also great COVID store etiquette during the pandemic to make us all feel safe).
If you want honest advice about a huge variety of beers, go here. The owner is extremely knowledgeable and super helpful. Best packie Ive been to.
Ive been a customer of The Packie since it first opened. The selection is always spot on and I love the organization of everything. But, the service is really what sets it apart. Many times Ive gone in and Jon has helped me pick a perfect assortment for my crazy beer tasting needs. Thanks and keep it up!
Literally the best beer store around. Jon will go out of his way to find beers for you or hold on to them so you can always get what you need. Awesome selection and great environment! Highly recommend them.
Love this store and the selection since they’ve opened! Jon is so nice and helpful and always makes us feel welcomed. I’ve loved the curbside pickup option since covid happened as we are being safe and limiting our exposure, I love that this means we don’t have to limit our beer selection ☺️ Thank you Jon!!
Easily located right off the highway, this craft beer store has an abundance of all the top locally breweries in NH. The bonus is they also have many lesser known local breweries. Don’t want to buy a full four pack because you’re not sure if you are going to like it? You don’t have to here, grab a single of anything you’d like!
Should be nothing but 5 stars for this place! Theyre my go-to for my craft beer, especially the harder to find items. Always had a great experience when picking up beers. They are very knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful. Youve got a life long customer here! Cheers!
Friendly staff and always a great selection. So happy theyre so close by.
Incredibly knowledgeable and helpful staff, a great selection of beers, and very reasonable prices. Well worth a visit!
Customer service is obviously #1 with this beer store. They have a great selection but on top of that they really appreciate their customers. Their knowledge of the product is unmatched in southern NH.
Excellent selection and customer service! We are always asked if we need help finding anything, and we always get to learn a little more about the beers were buying when we check out. So grateful for this shop!
Great place - ever expanding selection of beer. The owner is super cool and friendly. Hes always willing to talk to you about beer or answer your questions about beer.
Absolutely love this place. Knowledgeable owner and staff, great and constantly changing selection. Heaven for a beer nerd.
A great business, owners and staff. Always stocked with the best craft beer around. And curbside pickup if you want to play it safe during these difficult times!
Amazing selection and informative owner & staff.
Cannot get enough of this place. Staff is super helpful with recommendations. Best selection I have seen since moving to the area!
The selection of beer and knowledge of the product by John is second to none. I also love how the inventory is kept up to date on Untappd so you know when hes got good stuff (which is all the time)
Awesome place! Jon is so knowledgeable and will help you find exactly what you are looking for. Huge variety, just a great place!
Store policy is masks mandatory. No respect for medical exceptions or personal preference. No thanks. I respect private property and promptly left.
My go to beer store. Only place around that has all the beers I love. And the staff is very nice and helpful.
Great selection of craft beers. Owner is friendly and knowledgeable.
Great staff, great selection! The new spot is fantastic. Always takes time to discuss styles and preferences. The only beer store in Manch I go to.
Supporting small businesses has become a top priority of mine since the unfortunate hit of Covid 19. The Packie is the only place I’ve bought beer since I discovered them this past summer. Amazing selections, a constantly updated Untappd, and friendly staff that knows you by name.
Always super friendly and knowledgeable staff who goes out of their way to be helpful! Great selection of craft beer!
Very cool place with great selection and a great staff. I did get an old IPA so keep an eye on the dates but Ill definitely be back.
Fantastic beer selection, great helpful staff. I will definitely be coming here regularly after seeing the breadth of the options that they have. Glad they moved to a place where I can actually find them.
Great beer selection! Super friendly. I know where I will be going to get beer when Im in Manchester!
Friendly, welcoming and knowledgeable staff. Ever growing selection. What more can you ask for from a local craft beer store?
Best selection in the city and convenient location. Staff is always friendly,helpful and conversational.
Well organized, helpful staff, sells singles, had a small mead selection of both the traditional and the session styles, decent cider selection, huge beer selection.
Love this store. Prices on par with other beer stores in the area, but you cannot beat their selection, and the staff is very helpful.
Everything one could hope for from a local craft beer store. Great selection. No frills. Knowledgeable and friendly staff with a passion for the product. Very impressed with my first visit and will likely be giving them a lot of business to come.A hidden gem. Emphasis on hidden. Their signage isnt great so use Google maps to find them.
Great spot with a real solid selection, best Ive been to in the Manchester area
Best selection in the Manchester area, easy on off of 293. Always stop on my way by.
Love their knowledge, selection and organization of store. This is always my go to for craft beer.
The selection is always amazing and your sure to find what you like and maybe even try some new ones.
Thank you for providing great finds like the OJ IPA I just bought! Great customer service- I will definitely be back soon!
I live on Untappd which is how I heard of The Packie. Saw their awesome menu on the app and then filled out the order form on their website. Literally within minutes they had my order ready for pick up. You can pay ahead over the phone then you just call when you get there. Super friendly service and super convenient during these corona days. Definitely recommend if youre a craft beer lover.
Owner cares enough to respond in ten minutes they deserve 5 stars
My first experience with the Packie and it’s wonderful staff has been excellent. They have adapted to a curbside pick up model after the Covid-19 “modified normal”. Got my list submitted via the website, promptly got called and paid over the phone. Upon arrival I was greeted by a cheerful young man. Got home to find my order in my trunk was perfect packed and accurate. It’s definitely worth recognizing and recommending. Will be back, hopefully to meet this wonderful people in person, like in the olde times. Tip: order more than six items gets you a discount.!!
Amazing variety to chose from, and the owner & staff are always knowledgeable & beyond helpful.
Incredible little shop, once you find it. The service is exceptional. I went in looking for a few different styles of beer, both local and regional, after asking a few questions, the staff zeroed in on exactly what I had in mind. The layout is great too, with plenty of coolers, organized by style, and room-temp shelves for 4 and 6-packs. There was also the option to purchase singles of anything otherwise in a 4 pack, which is always great to see. IT looked like they also provide plenty of space for tastings and other events, which is neat. I picked up a 4-pack from NorthWoods Brewing (NH) and Modern Times (CA). Both great suggestions that were enjoyed.
Great place with wonderful, knowledgeable staff and an awesome selection!
This is me and my boyfriends absolute favorite place to go to for drinks. The owner is almost always there and is by far one of the most friendly, down to earth store owners weve ever chatted with. Hes incredibly friendly, and helpful if you ever have questions about different brews, tastes, recommendations. Hes helped me before and is always willing for anyone walking in. The store is always tidy, everything in order and there is always a fantastic selection with a bunch of new things to try. Ive even expanded my own favorites list after a few visits! We love this place and telling all of our friends. Keep on being amazing!
Turned around in parking lot
Great place. Owners are extremely friendly and incredibly knowledgeable. Only reason I gave 4 stars the first time is because they are Eagles fans!Just kidding.It’s now my go to place for the best craft beer.
Awesome place, knowledgeable staff and great selection!
Best prices and best selection around.
Appropriate prices and the fact that you can get single cans is awesome. Great selection. Save the 6 pack holder its the equivalent of a loyalty card you get 5% off if you bring it back plus theres 10% off anytime you get at least 6 beers. Will be back.
Super nice on the phone! Highly recommend! I went into the store looking for a specific UFO beer and they were so nice and willing to even put in a future order for me. Again, highly recommend!
I had no idea this place was here, but now I am a super-fan! They have a fantastic collection of craft beers and ciders. There is something for everyone. Staff/owners? are very knowledgeable and super-friendly.
Very nice selection. The owner was very helpful and attentive. The prices are reasonable for a specialty store but of course higher than a supermarket. A little tricky to find tucked in behind there but easy parking once you find it.
Amazing selection of quality beers of all types
Nice people, very helpful. They sell singles so you dont need to go playing Russian roulette on 4 packs if that scares ya.
The Packie has a very well curated selection at fair prices. Really good options that are hard to find and he keeps inventory updated in untappd. Owner knows his stuff to boot.
Great owner with deep knowledge and loads of friendliness. Strongly recommended. We wont go to Burts Better Beers any more - this place is so much better.
Perfect beer shop with an excellent selection.
I visited the Packie last Saturday to browse. I consider myself a craft beer enthusiast and consume it often. I have been to other stores in southern NH specializing in craft beer and in comparison the Packie seemed more expensive, more disorganized, and had less refrigerated beer. On my way out the door after not purchasing anything due to price, the gentleman at the counter did ask if i needed help, he seemed nice, and Im sure he is knowledgeable. Its not a bad place if you are in Manchester but if you are willing to expand to surrounding cities/towns in my personal opinion there are better options. I ended up going to my usual local craft beer store a couple towns over and got some good beers for less money than they would have cost at the Packie.
GREAT place to buy beer. John will give you recommendations if you give him a type of beer and general flavors you like and be on point. We frequent this store because of the selection, service, and Friday tastings 😀
A great location for speciality beer. John, the owner, is super knowledgeable. The selection of beers is top notch. Most Fridays they also have different breweries giving out samples. I highly suggest this place.
Visited for the first time last weekend. Cute store. Limited selection, but unique choices. I was able to create a 4-pack of beers Ive never had before, but could not stock up for a Christmas party. Expected more based on existing reviews but will come back next time Im in the area.
Best beer related store in Manchester. If you want imports, go here. If you want a wall of coolers filled with every type of single so you can make your own six pack or just buy a couple cans/bottles, go here. If you want expertise on all types of beer, local to foreign and a personalized experience when selecting your next brew, go here. This establishment has events, tastings, and an amazing selection, go here if you love everything about beer or want to learn more, you wont regret it!
Great selection, very reasonable prices, owner is a wicked nice guy. Im in here almost weekly. Highly recommend.
Great selection, great staff!
Excellent selection of craft beers. Always very friendly and knowledgeable. I really enjoy visiting and just checking out all the variety and seeing what is new
My favorite place to get craft beers in the Manchester area.
Great Beer, Great Prices, Great employees and Great owners. what else do you need? Highly recommend the Packie
Excellent service, fabulous selection, easy parking. They also have beer tastings on Fridays. 5 stars
Great selection! Great service. Super knowledgeable about ALL kinds of beers. Inventory changes regularly, so try again next week too!
Love this place - Jon has a great selection of local beers, and gets a lot of fantastic, harder to find national stuff.
I called 10 beer stores across NH and MA looking for a specific beer. Not only did The Packie have it, they set it aside for me. Then when I arrived there, the owner helped me box it up, gave me his card and said he would order whatever quanitity I needed, whenever I wanted it. Legendary customer service at its best.
New favorite store! Great craft beer selection and suggestions! Love the personal experience of shopping here. Ill be back over and over
Stopped by during the afternoon and I got a ton of personal help picking out some beers from the manager! I’m a beer guy and I’m not from the area- they have a wide selection of local beers and hard to find limited releases as well. Very knowledgeable staff and Great prices! I will be returning soon.
Awesome selection of craft beer. Great knowledge of beer. Priced just right. Why havent you gone yet?
Incredible selection of Craft beers! John, the owner, is extremely knowledgeable, kind, and great to talk with! Amazing selection--with a heavy emphasis on high quality local products! My favorite craft beer store Ive been to by far!!!
Excellent selection of beers, at affordable prices! They even have a couple fridges full of singles if you would rather try a whole bunch of beers than opt for a pack. Super helpful and knowledgeable owner!
Super Excellent selection.Staff Rocks. Excellent Prices. A Must try. If you shop once you will shop again.... 🍺🍻🍹🍷🍸
Great beer store with amazing prices!
Love this place! The owner and staff are fantastic. They are all knowledge, helpful, and have a great selection of beers and ciders.
