This is a wonderful and quirky convenience store/deli in one of Charlotte's funkier neighborhoods.

It's funky because it's independently owned and not forced to conform to corporate standards.  Common Market has one of the best wine and beer…More »

For those of us close to the border, there are some advantages of going across the line....cheap gas, Carowinds, and of course booze!

Frugals is a big box store for the alcoholic beverage lover.  The building is divided into two halves and you have to…More »

I have one word to describe this place -- AWESOME.

I was here for my cousin's wedding reception a few years ago and then back once since then with a friend.

They make the best mojitos!  So good that I had to watch so I can now make their version at…More »

There seems to be a superstore for everything these days and if you can't find a bottle of wine in this store you must be really picky.

Not only that, they have a great selection of beer as well from all corners of the earth.  

I'm not really a wine…More »

When you enter this store, it looks like it could be more of a shoe store than a liquor store because of the displays for the liquor.  I don't think this store has the selection that the Park Rd store and I often cannot find what I'm looking for in…More »

I sampled Four Friends brew at Charlotte Oktoberfest and I have to say their beers have overtaken another Charlotte brewery's as my favorite.

This place is right over the state line next to the Barnyard Flea Market.  

The store sells everything....like 4,000 kinds of vodka and is cheap.  The selection is better than Frugals.  According to a friend of mine, they sell the "x-rated vodka…More »

I should have read Chad's review before I showed up here.  Obviously I was expecting a different type of wine store.

So instead of hitting the beer/wine megastore down the street, I decided to check out Brawleys which I pass by all the time and have never been in.

From the outside this place looks tiny but on the inside it's a huge cave of beer and wine.

Stopped in Birdsong last night and had a couple of the glasses of the IPA which I really enjoy.  They had a special brew also called Sarachi Saison which was good if you like Belgian style ales but I stuck with the IPA.

Ass Clown, I have to admit, we didn't get started on out on good terms.  I first tasted your brews at Charlotte's Oktoberfest in 2011 and that first tasting was your chocolate blueberry flavor.  It didn't impress me much but at 2012's Beertopia event…More »

I finally got to try VBGB last night as one of my friends and I had a party here.  

This is really a simple place and if you're looking for some place pretentious, this is NOT the place.  Come in jeans or shorts and you'd fit in just fine.

Wet Willie's is a chain of frozen daiquiri bars that is found around the south.  My first experience with them was in Myrtle Beach but Charlotte's had their own for a few years.
