Plenty of refrigeration means they are drinkably cold, and the prices are fair. Once I fussed about them being out of Bell's Two Hearted, and now there is a seemingly limitless supply, stacked up like the Great Pyramid of Cholula. It is a little sad that the building used to be a US Post Office, like some sort of backwards adaptive reuse reflecting the decline of the neighborhood. I guess they got DOGE-d before that was a thing.

It's not a warehouse so you can find your beer relatively easily unless you don't know what you like. They have he beer out on display and it's chill inside so refrigeration isn't mandatory although they do have an area with refrigerated beer They have what I want every time. The beer selection is superb. They even have a pail as you exit to trade one of your bottles for a bottle already there. This way you don't have to buy a 12 pack you don't like. That's totally awesome Here I learned that there's a law coming down that will allow 6 packs of beer to be sold. That's great especially since I'm not from Philadelphia and I thought it odd that I had to buy a 12 pack of beer when I only wanted a 6 pack.

I believe that EVERYONE can play an active part in supporting the community! In addition to great service, they also deliver...Yes, delivery with a $3 charge! I haven't tried it but from recommendations from others - the delivery is a good 'no headache' option. Only one star off because the selections appear to be sparse with especially unique brews (if you need to have the option) compared to other nearby distributors. But the usual suspects are there with great, personal customer service to boot. So, I don't mind. Without asking, they also help take the cases to your car. Recommendation - good place for picking up (or delivering) your beer while getting great customer service and a supporting black-owned business!

That is no longer the case. Great beer variety (and for the most part the cheapest in the neighborhood), an extremely friendly and helpful staff, and a tapped keg on hand for you to quench your thirst, plus they even hooked up a charity event I was just part of with discount beer. If the surplus of beers of all kinds isn't enough to make this a cool spot for you, perhaps the owner's customer appreciation days will do it. A couple times a year (with advanced notice) Javies has CADs, wherein booze is offered to help you enjoy the games held there (beer pong/flip cup style festivities). As an added bonus, in the short time leading up to the party, every time you buy beer you get a raffle ticket for a chance to win some of that cool promotional swag the brewers unload on them, then the day of, the drawings are held until there is no gear left. They also do a reward program with spending eventually equaling discounts, but I have yet to take advantage of it so I don't know the ins and outs. ***Added 2/19/11*** Yesterday Mama Nature fluked out a spring-time-in-winter afternoon with 69 degree weather (third warm day in a row), and that meant many of the local spots that try to save money by shutting off their coolers for the season were selling lukewarm suds (Worldwide, Speedy's). We came here and were able to grab a case of forties (which those others seem to no longer carry) cold because the ice boxes were still pumpin' that arctic air. Added June 2012 THEY DELIVER!

Great beer selection (I've chatted with people about the familiar phenomenon of just staring at so many different choices with mouth agape), a focus on local, easy online ordering for delivery or pickup, and the best team in the biz.

Did you know they sell boozy freezy slushies here year round? HOT TIP. Did you know you can also grab all your surfsides/canned cocktails here? Hot tip.
