Brentwood Spirits

There are not a lot of really excellent liquor stores in Cincinnati given we are so close to the looser restrictions and often wider selection of Kentucky. I consider Brentwood to be one of the great ones in this city.
First and foremost, the owner knows his bourbon which always scores points with me. He’s led my wife and I down some fine roads and is knowledgable across the board (though most of our conversations have been bourbon focused). The selection (beer, spirits and wine) really excels, parking is easy and getting in and out with what you need is always quick. I’ve never been there when they’ve not had at least two people checking folks out. Dual cash registers is a real plus when you’re on the move.
Take some time and dig around their store. You’ll be pleased with what you see especially given their significant expansion into the world of craft beer.

Hooray for booze!
Parking can be an issue. The lot is very small and a bit dangerous even. Add booze to the mix and you have a cocktail for disaster (had to be said).
Staff is knowledgeable and extremely helpful.
Don’t use credit unless you’re over $ 25.

I think I’m a fan. Jeez, I hate to admit I’m a fan of a liquor store! LOL
I noticed the place is expanding! The have an entirely new wine room that offers tastings! Very cool indeed.
I was interested in checking out the 80 craft beers, but the place is cramped and I was in a hurry. I’m very curious and will be back. If Brentwood Spirits can save me a drive to Jungle Jim’s or even Marty’s Hops and Vines, I’m there!
The staff are very friendly. Parking is not great. I recommend parking to the north of the store rather than trying to jockey for one of the spots near the store.
Seeing the new wine room gives me hope. In the future, this place may actually rock.
