| - Total Wine is where you'll find all the Housewives of Summerlin and the rich folks, but not because Total Wine represents some social status, but because it has great variety, large selections, and low prices.
As a wannabe beer nerd I am happy that Total Wine receives the special releases, and gets a large allotment of it at that case, i.e. New Belgium's Lips of Faith Series, Deschutes specialties, Dogfish, and etc. Why the loss in a star? Well... the beer organization... good lord, Total Wine prides itself in having the largest selection, but it is messier than an over easy egg sandwich and tighter than a boa constrictor's death grip on its prey. Also several times that I go to Total Wine... I am given the "look" from an employee. The "look" is a nonverbal thought of why is there a 16 year old sneaking into Total Wine, I better follow him. I understand its part of their job to ensure there no have kids inside... but after a few times it gets somewhat annoying.
If you're looking for beer you can't find at Lee's or Total Wine try the Whole Foods on Las Vegas Blvd and Khoury's (has 8 taps in store), less selection, but more rarities.
Oh... and Total wine your sake selection is laughable.. just saying.
