Beer?

I searched for any previous threads on this topic but couldn't find anything. Sorry in advance if I missed one!

I'm planning a little party and I'm wondering where in Crown/Prospect Heights I might find some beer bargains in bulk (cases at least.) Also, any information on kegs would be helpful... I haven't completely counted that out as an option yet.

Anything?

Thanks!

you could try the brooklyn beverage barn on prospect and (?) bedford (might be rogers). i haven't been in, but they have an impressive sign, mentioning wholesale and retail, so perhaps they have kegs.

There is a place on Washington between Bergen and Dean. I know they have the small kegs, don't know about the big ones. Now when can Sweet Tea and I expect our invites

The Key Food on Flatbush near Sterling has a terrific bottle selection which is well priced. The other distributers mentioned above on Bedford and Washington are good for your more common beers and kegs.

Let us know if you go to the beverage barn. It's new as far as I can tell, curious as to prices, selection, etc.

Drinker Beverage on Flatbush & Lefferts. They don't have many "upscale" beers but their prices on the run-of-the-mill stuff are stupendous. For example, a 36 can case of bud for $20.

Oh, I forgot to say that Drinker Beverage accepts only cash; no credit or debit cards whatsoever.

The Brooklyn Beverage Barn was closed tonight, so I couldn't scout out it's selection and prices (I'll try again tomorrow, I think.) But I went over to the place on Washington between Bergen and Dean (Brooklyn Beer and Soda) which was great. Bright, clean, really excellent selection, and friendly/helpful staff. Cases of 36 Bud were $19.99, etc. Recommended.

Aren't there 24 bottles in a case? Or are these special cases?

If you have a car, the place on Court Street is amazing. I think they'll also deliver if you order enough.

Yeah, most cases are 24, but these are 12x3. So, 36.

The BROOKLYN BEVERAGE BARN just had is grand opening Friday 2-1-08
They were not open prior to that (waiting on liquor license) I have not gone in yet

I was there today. Very friendly staff and huge selection of beer, although they're still getting set up in terms of labeling prices and so forth. They're open from about 11-7 most days from what she told me, including Sunday. Check it out!

Good news! I'd almost lost hope that they'd open!
