Introducing The Beer Boutique!

May 18, 2011
The Beer Boutique

If you’re a hard-core city dweller who loves beer, you’ll be excited to hear about The Beer Boutique, our newest retail venture opening in Liberty Village (120 Lynn Williams Street, Toronto). It’ll be featuring your favourite beer brands, all wrapped up in a unique shopping experience.

The Beer Boutique is going to let you get to know beer in a whole new way. We’ll still be offering our vast selection of beer products... but you’ll also enjoy regular tasting and pairing events, where you can discover new brands and foods that taste great with them. It’s a beer lover’s dream come true, right?

The other thing that makes this store different from our other retail locations is that it’s all self-serve, so you can take your time and browse to your heart’s content. For those who don’t want to carry a 2-4 on the subway, we’ll be offering smaller cases as well as a eight-pack cardboard carrier if you want to mix and match. And here’s some good news for those of you who are as eco-conscious as we are (or for those who don’t have a vehicle) – our Liberty Village flagship store is easy to access by public transit.

You’ll also be able to purchase other beer products at The Beer Boutique, like specialized glassware to help you enhance your beer tasting experience.  (By the way, if you want to know more about the specific types of glassware you should have with certain beers, you can find out more here.)

We hope to see you soon at The Beer Boutique. (And don’t be selfish – bring your friends!)

I believe it's right near the Metro grocery store parking lot / Brazenhead location. Same shopping complex area as the LCBO too!

Is that going to be at the corner of Lynn Williams Street and Pirandello Street? AKA the open vendor spot in Zip condos? Wahoo!

Will you have extended hours like your Brock St. establishment?

Liberty Village is located in Toronto, Ontario. The closest main intersection is King St West and Strachan. I recommend checking out a google map before you come, Liberty Village can be a complicated area to navigate if you are not prepared.

At this time we do not carry it as the Brewer has not approached us to list their product in The Beer Boutique. Sorry for any disappointment.

Will the beer boutique be taking back empty wine bottles like the regular beer store locations?

Posted By:
The Beer Store

Jun 09 - 10:06

Hi Rachel. The Beer Boutique will not be accepting empties. There are 4 stores close by though that do! Brock and Queen, Dundas and Lakeview, Queen and Bathurst and Queens Quay

Love seeing the shadow of the woman in the photo. So sick of how all beer advertising is targeted towards men. Way to go Beer Store!

Has anyone seen my wife Kathy? We made it over the border earlier today and she made a beeline for Liberty Village. Kathy, please pick up a 6 pack of something decent like Carling Black Label.

I'm trying to find Stiegl Radler (the grapefruit/beer blend). Anyone know if the Beer Boutique will have it?

In terms of a gift card for the Boutique, would you just use a regular Beer Store card? Or are there separate gift cards?

Posted By:

Jul 14 - 08:07

Hi Jen. There are gift cards for The Beer Boutique, but The Beer Store gift cards can also be used there. Cheers!

Do you publish an inventory list?

Aug 29 - 08:08

Hi Peter. At this time we do not have an inventory list for stores. This is something that we are looking into implementing on our site. Cheers.

I heard a rumour that there may be a Beer Boutique opening in the Distillery District, is this true? I think this would be the perfect location for a Beer Boutique as it is a similar upscale neighbourhood as Liberty Village is. I know a lot of us who live in the area are tired of walking back and forth to the LCBO in St. Lawrence Market...

Posted By:
The Beer Store

Sep 01 - 08:09

Yes, it is true we are looking at more locations in the GTA and other markets in Ontario to build our new Beer Boutique concept. However, we cannot confirm of deny our intentions or progress at securing possible locations as it takes time to confirm details. Cheers!

useless - can't return my empties here so I may as well just go to beer store

Posted By:

Sep 23 - 08:09

Hi Jordan. This is a unique style store design based on customer feedback and with the local community in mind . We welcome all comments as this will help us shape the future. In the meantime empties can still be returned at any nearby Beer Store.

How about carrying craft beers or... you know... stuff not found at every other bloody Beer Store?!

I've been looking over for the Dead Frog mix pack and Beau's Dunkel Buck. They're Fall-only beers so I'd like to grab them while I can. I was just wondering if BB has them. Thanks!

Freedom to choose

Nov 12 - 20:11

This is nothing but a beer store turned inside out. Same high prices, same lame choice. When will Ontario allow some decent competition so we can buy alcohol freely and get some real choice?

I looked with interest in the new beer boutique on Mill St., I was disappointed to see Coors Light and other Labatt and Molson domestics taking the front and centre locations. Yet another reason to get rid of the Beer Store and LCBO monopolies.

Still buying be...

Mar 05 - 23:03

Looks like what an awesome craft beer store should. Carries none of the products that one would. A horrible monopoly, give people an option with regard to buying beer. I'll keep spending my money in the states. Cheaper and better craft beer, even with the duty I pay it's cheaper than buying stuff here...
