Beaver Liquors

A real (below ground) wine cellar, great selection of local/​international wines, knowledgeable sommeliers (thanks Joe), a good humidor, friendly staff and reasonable prices — what more could you want!
Why souvenirs of course — and they have a whole section of the shop for all the dirty minded beaver ‘liquors’ out there!
With 3 liquor stores in Avon (none of which are ‘discount’ supermarket type) the competition keeps the prices reasonable for Vail Valley. Each have their own discounts on certain ranges but I have found the Beaver prices pretty good overall, and I visit them the most when in town.
If you are looking for a special wine though — this is the best place to go!

What can you say about Beaver Liquors? Not only do they offer a variety of liquor options at reasonable prices, but they offer souvenirs (T-​shirts, shotglasses, etc.) with their clever store name! I bought a couple of things just to bring home to friends. Hilarious!

Hey my daughter works here it has to be good… Right

The name says it all, had to have a t-​shirt with their logo on it. The people who work their are very funny and have a lot jokes about beavers and liquors. I can’t review the store and the products because I do not drink, if I did I would have to visit this place all the time. Enjoy

You gotta love it. We usually stop in Denver to stock up on liquor, but I like to come here also. Great selection and helpful, friendly staff. In my younger single days I also bought and wore the hilarious T shirts.

What a great find during our annual ski trip to beaver creek. The wine selection is vast and the staff is very knowledgeable. We felt they went out of their way to really make sure we found exactly what we were looking for, especially since we were trying to find enough wine selections to please 10 people. Parking is limited, but worth the wait for a spot to check this place out

Got to love the name and the fact they actually have a huge wine cellar.

This place scammed us completely! We purchased a bottle of Baileys, only to come back to the condo to find out that it had been opened, dilued with milk or water and it tasted like dilute chocolate milk! I would never trust this place at all! We were so ticked off!

The apparel is funny, but if you buy online, pay for expedited shipping, be prepared to be ignored and wait a very long time.

Beaver Liquors? You’re damn right!
Genius marketing.
Great selection of beer, wine and other consumables.
T-​shirts for the manners-​disabled crowd.

I’m reviewing Beaver Liquors, the Beaver Liquors is in a decent sized strip mall just East of the main road that goes through Avon to the Beaver Creek Ski Resort. The Beaver Liquors I’m talking about are tucked in a strip mall behind another strip mall, and adjacent to a third strip mall. It’s almost like the town of Avon is trying to disguise or hide the Beaver Liquors. But they’re not trying to disguise the Beaver Liquors, more people stop in Avon for the Beaver Liquors and wind up getting dinner, just to get a T-​shirt. The Beaver Liquors themselves probably make more money on the t-​shirts they sell than they do on the liquor markup. I usually buy a t-​shirt for my perverted cousins and nephews from the Beaver Liquors whenever I roll through Avon. While one can certainly get hammered drunk with the Beaver Liquors, it’s not recommended. You see, police in the area tend to frown upon potential vehicular homicide after drinking too much, and the Beaver Liquors will help you drink too much. The Beaver Liquors do however have a wonderful selection of booze, wine and beers that will help you want to buy a T-​shirt and make you think you’re good enough to ski the glades the next day. You’re not good enough to ski the glades, but you do need a T-​shirt from the Beaver Liquors. A little tip… parking to hang with the Beaver Liquors can be tough. The Beaver Liquors have 2 tiny (5 — 10 car) parking lots surrounding their hangout, and getting in an out of each parking spot can be difficult if you’ve rented an SUV.
You just spent the last three minutes of your life reading a Unilocal review about Beaver Liquors which happened to be my 200^th review. Best named joint ever. 95% of all new business owners need to hire these cats to name their new business. 5 stars for the name of the joint. Nuff said.

Wearing a Beaver Liquors shirt is like have a large sign on your chest that says, «Let’s do it. Now.»

I love this place!!! I always get all the help I need when I have to go for my picky scotch drinking hubby… Staff is very friendly and knowledgable and they have a great selection… Hey you have to love the name too!

Full stock of every type of liquor you could ever ask for or need. Friendly service. Lots other liquor-​related stuff for sale there as well.
And the name of the place… priceless.

I love going to this liquor store when I am out in the mountains. Not only can you get various Beaver liquors paraphernalia for your dirty minded friends, but they have a good selection of beer and an AWESOME wine cellar.
All you have to do is go into the basement and tell the guy in the cellar what you are having for dinner and your budget and they hook you up with a great bottle.
They also have a wine of the week that is one sale and the rating on the wine is given — good for a quick pickup if you don’t have time to peruse the awesome selection in the cellar.

The sommelier in the wine cellar is a Wine Spectator on legs… and I don’t mean that to any disrespect… This guy really knows his shit! He gives great suggestions and actually steers you away from the Napa Valley trophy bottles. Chardonnay, Cab and Pinot Noir? Nope! he’ll steer you to a light and aromatic sparkling verdicchio for dessert or maybe a peppery tempranillo to go with roasted lamb. Give him a price limit and he will walk you around the room, and have a story for each bottle he picks up. If you really get in kahoots with him, he might suggest a limited release bottle that isn’t even on display.

This is a beautiful oasis in a desert of strange laws and tight ass establishments.
If you’re in the area, you like booze of all sorts, and more importantly if you have at least a mediocre sense of humor — give this beauty a gander.
Cheers!

Now I have to start with saying that Colorado has some downright un-​American liquor laws. Can’t buy alcohol in the grocery store and can’t buy alcohol on Sundays. Who came up with that? Reminds me of the south. I tend to forget that the rest of the world is not like California until I take trips to places like Colorado and Utah to ski.
In our search for wine and beer we happened to find this place after grocery shopping in the snow. We were ecstatic to find refuge in a place that not only had beer and wine but had a fairly significant wine selection. Everything was separated by country and type. The customer service was excellent and we were happy to find something that we liked. Nothing worse than being on vacation and drinking crappy wine.
One star off for the sticker shock I went through. $ 24.99 for a bottle of Chandon? Please. I don’t think so. There were other choices that weren’t too bad so we were happy.

HA! The best name ever! Flew out from CA just to check it out. Well not really but it pretty much turned out that way. Took tons of pics, very touristy but the guys working the place loved the attention and who doesn’t love beaver?
