| - If you're buying liquor, wine or beer in Madison, you need to stop at Steve's.
The prices might be slightly more expensive here than at a big box but the most service you'll get at a big box is locating where something is.
At Steve's you can take as much time as you want asking questions about the product and getting suggestions for what you're looking for. They're also on top of releases and what's happening in the industry. And if you need something specially ordered, they can oblige.
As a beer snob, I really appreciate their knowledge and selection. Lots of great American craft beers (especially local WI beers - so stop here if you're from out of town!), and a robust selection of Belgians - many of which are exclusive to this location.
I also appreciate that I'm notified of hard to get releases before they even arrive at the store. If you're into cellaring beer (and you really should be), they are a great resource.
And when I'm looking to bring wine to a party or as a gift, I'm too inexperienced to really know what to grab. They're more than happy to help you, and if you know what kind of flavors the recipients like, they can really tailor it to the audience.
And they also have kegs in stock if you're into partying.
At this location, you can ask Amanda, Wayne, or Tom for help.
Hours are as follows:
Monday & Tuesday: noon - 9pm
Wednesday - Saturday: 9am - 9pm
Sunday: noon - 6pm
My only criticism is that none of the Steve's open before Noon on Sundays. You know that NFL games start at Noon right? How about opening at 11:30 am?
