    Our wines are kept cool year-round... stop by the climate-controlled cellar and check it out! (Or the walk-in beer room). Cheers!

    1. Sign up for the email list; 2. Check out the newsletter each month; 3. If you live in the area, see what wine tastings are going down (see #2) & stop by to taste! More info at hitimewine.net. :)

    Grab some cheese and charcuterie from upstairs, go downstairs and grab a seat at the tasting counter. They'll cut and serve it there for you while you taste wine. If Todd is there, guaranteed fun!

    Amazing Beer selection and prices are competitive. If you don't see a beer you've been looking for ask one of the employees if its in the back. Pliny The Elder isn't on the shelves but it's there.
