Nice little grocery store with an exceptional beer selection. Good amount of quality local beer as well as vintage and curretn imports.

Had an '05 N'ice Chouffe and 2005 from Unibroue. Also had a '97 vintage French Biere de Garde that was drinking quite well.

As far as locals, they had Bells, Arcadia, Founders, New Holland, Dark Horse, Shorts... Had a good balance of session beers as well as craft beers like Hopslam, Expedition, Dragon's Milk...

Overall, well priced and a greta place to find a tasty bottle.

This is one of the older grocery stores in Monroe, it used to be part of a chain but is now independently owned. Beer selection is fairly extensive, with a lot of michigan beers well represented such as Bells,Founders,Arcadia, as well as many imports and bombers. Check for dates as there are several "slow movers" that have been on the shelf for a while. Service is typical for a grocery store, friendly and helpful, but not necesarily knowledgeable as far as beer goes. Overall, however, a pretty extensive selection with some bargains to be had for the keen eye.
