| - As a Washingtonian stepping into BevMo!, I feel like a kid stepping into a candy store. Washington is one of those states that only state-owned and run liquor stores can actually sell hard alcohol. The prices are pretty steep and the selection can be spotty. Only recently have we been able to buy liquor on Sundays. Yes, really.
I guess the bar isn't very high when it comes to places that sell liquor. So why the five star rating, you ask?
I'm quite impressed with the selection of beer, wine, and the extensive selection of liquor. I must admit, I have been a little homesick (for beer, not rain) and it brought a little tear to my eye to find some of my beloved micros that I usually can only find in the Pacific Northwest on the shelves at BevMo!.
It also doesn't hurt that the two times I've been here, they've had some really tasty wines on sale - buy one, get one for a nickel. When the sales associate mentioned this to me, I swear I could hear the Hallelujah Chorus playing. It was Cold Play, but whatever. I'd love to try more of the sale selection, but I do only have one liver.
