One store stands out in the Northwest. They carry more than 600 beers, over 300 of which are Belgians. Many different vintages of specialty brews are available. Some are exclusives to the store. Belgian owner Matt Van den Berghe is passionate about beer (he also carries some great chocolate). Planning to open a café nearby soon.

A non-descript store, whose wares are anything but. Highly recommended by every beerhead as the one store in the area not to miss. Germany, the British Isles, and Belgium are well-represented, an impressive selection of Eastern European beers, dozens of Wisconsin’s superb micros are available also. If it is sold in Wisconsin, it can be found here. Simply put, as good as it gets.
