Beaverton Liquor Store

The Hispanic guy who works the night shift sold liquor to two minors, and did not check I.D. he stated that because they had beards that they don’t have to check I. D… Then Refused my service because I did not have my Drivers license but I did have my military I.D. which by Oregon law is proper identification and they are supposed to except. The time I spent in the store he was complaining about losing his job stocking because they hired someone else on days and said that it was ok because he has 2 more jobs still. When I stated Current accepted forms of ID include a valid state driver license with a photo; a valid DMV ID card with photo, name, date of birth & physical description from any state; a valid passport or a valid U.S. military ID card which is from the OREGON LIQUOR CONTROL COMMISSION he stated he did not care that he can refuse sale of anyone he wants because he is working and was losing his job anyways. Really who does that then he refused to give me his name, their was a female working to but she was no where to be found… I doubt that anything will be done about this but hey why not write the review.

This place has a great selection and the staff is really nice! And its nice how late they are open.

Hey Beaverton Liquor Store… I like you!
As far as liquor stores go this one is top notch. Walked in to see them prominently displaying Eastside Distilling products, my personal favorite local spirits (
). Decided to purchase some of their Holiday Spiced Liquor to put in warm apple cider. Was delicious.
Also noticed that this place had great stocking suffers and gift ideas for any time of the year.
The cashier was really friendly and efficient. This is my new go-​to liquor store!

If you are German or Swiss-​German or a proud descendant, you would appreciate this little liquor store and say «Prost.» That’s because they have Kirschwasser made by Schladerer. This is the only liquor store in Portland that I know of that has Schladerer brand. This exquisite cherry brandy is only $ 52 a bottle in comparison to the Internet starting at $ 55+SH (depending on quantity).
During cherry season in OR, I like to put a few cherries in a shot glass with this exquisite Kirschwasser for about 5 min. Doing so… the cherries become one with the schnapps and this infused flavor is delicious.
Now, if you didn’t know this, Schladerer is the Rolls-​Royce of brandies in Europe. However in US we do have a distillery that comes very close (Clear Creek Distillery — based in Portland, OR). Their version of Kirschwasser is not as smooth as Schladerer. But, that’s very big «kudos» for OR because the rest of them taste like turpentine.

Perfectly decent liquor store. Good selection, reasonable prices, good customer service.
I recently moved from South Carolina (yeah, I feel sorry for myself also). A 750ml Smirnoff flavored vodka cost an even 20 bucks plus sales tax in SC. It’s 15 bucks here. The real difference is that in SC they would charge 22 bucks for 1750 ml, which is a completely stupid business model for anybody capable of doing math (which is why it was successful in SC, I guess).
At this liquor store, if you get double the volume of drink, you’re going to pay just under double the cost. This makes sense. I miss a super-​cheap high volume bottle of liquor, but I don’t blame NW liquor stores for recognizing how numbers work.
I found everything I was looking for. No complaints.

Since all of the liquor stores in Oregon are run by the state, the only advantages this store has over the others are that it has a slightly wider selection, and it is open much later than the others. The best part about this store is the staff. They are extraordinarily helpful and friendly.
Thanks!

One of the things I still have to get used to after living in Portland for 16 months is that I have to find a liquor store to buy hard liquor. It continues to be a drag. I miss not being able to buy at Costco or even around the corner at Safeway.
So — I know — just deal with it Wendy. It’s not like I need to get stocked frequently.
As I’m preparing for the big 4^th of July Blues festival I’ve got a ton of friends from all over coming to town. Big bottles of tequila 1800 and 1800 margarita mix were on the order list. Very hard to find in this great city but this place had exactly what I wanted. I called about 5 places before someone recommended them and sure enough — they had just what I needed.
Downside is they wouldn’t hold it for me nor take a phone order but when I went the next day it was still on the shelf. Glad there wasn’t a run on big bottles of tequila. It’s a drive for me, living in The Pearl but I’d go back again.
