Upon getting home and opening one they were bad, I checked the date and there were five months old. Today on Monday, I stop by the same store, with the entire six pack and asked simply to return it for another six pack. The owner refused to refund any money or exchange the product because I didn't have a receipt. Now I know normally that would seem fair but during Covid many shops, including this one arent automatically handing out a receipt. Left the six pack and any future business on the counter.

The shopkeeper was very helpful kind and informative, very inviting and will help you find the selection that you're looking for. I was very impressed by the customer service that they give.

Judging from the fact my og review of Overflow's Lynden location is almost 10 years old (!), I'd say it's more than time for a refresh. A lot has changed since my 2016 declaration that "beer and Lynden" are not often two words you associate with each other. Lynden now has a few hoppy outposts, including a second Overflow location on the west side. Guess I'll add that one to my list, too! This particular Sunday, we were looking for a cozy spot to enjoy a quiet beer and play a game of cribbage. I was excited to see Overflow was open (back in "the day" most Lynden businesses were closed on Sundays). We grabbed a couple of pints (just $5 ea!) and sat down for our game. The service was friendly, the place was uncrowded, and it was hard not to order a second pint before the long drive home to the Ham. Overflow, congrats on 10 years in Lynden! It's great to see you're still thriving, still serving up some great beer choices, and still supporting clean water initiatives. Cheers!

The tasting included only reds (yes!) and they were all surprisingly AMAZING! I don't normally buy bottles of wine when I taste (shame on me) but the hardest decision for me at Dynasty was, which bottle? We decided on the Meritage, but seriously, they were all great. They were also friendly but left us alone while we tasted - the perfect mix. If there were a 4 & 1/2 star option, I would've given them that. Quirky interior with great music (think La Vie en Rose) and rich, earthy reds. We plan to come back!

For $10, you are presented a selection of 6 wines - 1 white, 4 red, and 1 red or dessert wine. The selections are presented in cute carafes, and you are free to choose one of their lovely outdoor picnic tables with a great view of the area, or sit indoors if that's more your speed. It looked like there was some charcuterie available for purchase, but based on the increasing number of folks that pulled up throughout the afternoon, there was a strong trend of BYOS (bringing your own snacks). I would recommend this place to anyone looking for local red wine selections! They also have a wine club you can join.

It has quite a large selection of beer, wine, and liquor. The prices are pretty good and the usually always have sales through out the year. I also appreciate the selection of Craft Beer in stock. They have just about every flavour of Stanley Park which is my favourite beer. The store is fairly new. The store has a lot of natural light and is always clean. The employees do a great job to help answer questions if a customer has any and they always have suggestions to help narrow down choices. The store isn't usually super busy which means you can get in and out pretty quickly especially if you have time deadlines to meet. I will continue to use Whatcom Wine & Spirits anytime i visit Abbotsford.

Not because I'm an alcoholic, well, not -just- because I'm an alcoholic; many of the gifts I buy and give are alcoholic in nature. The store is large and well laid out, I had no difficulty finding the various sections, and the organization seemed intuitive. The owner was friendly, and talked me through some of the more esoteric liqueurs. The fact that I was unfamiliar with a number of his products surprised and delighted me. I am a fan of new and novel tastes, and it's not too often that I run into something I haven't seen before within the confines of the Valley. The one product that I was looking for that he did not carry was Strega. Hopefully this is remedied sometime soon. I can't recall if Galliano was on the shelf either. It's just a personal preference, but I like to see a nice selection of Italian liqueurs when I browse. The prices were reasonable, essentially on par with the rest of the city. It's on the east side of Abbotsford, so if you're at that end of town, or just passing through on the nearby freeway, this should be your go-to liquor store.
