What a great beer spot! We stopped here while in from out of town to check it out and they had an amazing selection of local craft beers. The people behind the bar are experts and definitely know their stuff and can help you with any questions you may have or point you in the right direction. I wish we had more time to actually sit down and enjoy a beer from their tap menu, because they had some bangers available. We ended up snagging a few bottles and a four pack and hitting the road. read more

Every time that I've been here, it's been a great experience. I am so glad that I happened upon this bottle shop. Sam and Palmer took great care of me while I was there. I visited the shop three times in three days. If I'm ever back in Columbus, GA, I will be sure to hop in for a brew!! read more

The service here is wonderful! They're very helpful and will even put you on to brews you wouldn't think you'd like! The overall vibe of this spot is so rad! the outdoor seating is nice and they have a variety of games to play! I unfortunately moved but I hope my travels bring me back to this little gem! read more

Maltitude - Beer, Wine & Spirits Near Me - Columbus, Georgia

I really enjoyed my first experience at Maltitude. I have always looked at this place to only buy beer and then leave, but to my amazement it was a totally different vibe. I got a flight of 4 different beers. Some were good to me and some didn't taste so good to me.. It's a good place to decide if you like beer and to find the taste of beer you like. The selection is crazy anything from IPA to Belgium or German. I love the fact that you can chill inside or outside and play a few games before you decide to leave. The staff was super nice and very pleasant. Please visit this location downtown Columbus. read more

So, I no longer live in the south and there's a cider that you can only get down here and this place has it! Which makes me seriously over the moon. They have a huge selection of drinks to choose from. You can always count on personable and knowledgeable staff. I really like that we can play games while having drinks too! I'm a sucker for board games! read more

Unbelievable how great this this pub is. I respect that they carry Oberon from Michigan and the service was pretty awesome. I will be back before I leave!! Yessir!!! read more

I seriously love this place. We were looking for craft beer in Columbus and stumbled up Maltitude. They have lots of craft beer for purchase and a few pretty rare ones. The owner (I forgot his name) and staff were super friendly and helpful. I had never owned a growler before so wanted to try that. You get to sample 3 - 1 oz samples for $3. The good thing is that its only $3, the bad thing is that you only get to try 3 because of some crazy Georgia law. With that said, bring a friend so you can try more and be educated on your growler fill purchase. The prices are very reasonable, and will be back. This a great concept. I just wish that you could actually drink beer in there and have some food. read more

The best staff. The best beer. The BEST place to hang out and catch up with friends in Columbus. The owners Of Maltitude/Jarfly are a blessing upon this town. read more

It was great to come across the folks at Maltitude today, on their opening day. The space is open and inviting, driving interactions between the patron and the staff. The staff, primarily the 3 co-founders proved to be well versed in beers, both local selections and beyond. The organization of their offerings also speaks to their understanding of brewing styles and craftsmanship. Highly recommend anyone with a remote interest in the craft beer scene stop into Maltitude. Give them a good home in downtown Columbus, an area that seems to be developing its palate quite well. read more

The best place in town for beer. The variety is amazing (singles, drafts and multipacks) and the people working there are fun, friendly, and knowledgeable. read more

Do you like beer? How about weird, local, small-batch, unique beer? If so, Maltitude is the place for you! They have many, many different types. Some in cans and bottles, some ready for growler fills. Whichever you prefer, there's an excellent selection. Speaking of selection, it's always different-- they rotate seasonally (and even more often!) to make sure that they always have the best selection of what's new, hot, and local. Pro Tip: Head down to Maltitude for some of their 32oz Crowlers during Uptown's summer concert series. You won't regret it! read more

I wanna bounce back from a previous review and leave a shout out to Miles for going the extra mile (no pun intended) to give us a great beer buying experience. Maltitude has THEE BEST variety of craft beers in Columbus, hands down! You won't find a more well rounded or better selection anywhere else in town. read more

Great knowledgable staff. Excellent selection. You like beer? Hit this place up. Best IPA selection I've seen in this area and most places on the east coast. You like ciders, they have Koppenberg which I've only seen in the UK. I'm excited about this place. I'm adding on! They have a reward program. The more beer and cider I buy, I can earn points for a shirt or glass! Winning. read more

Maltitude - Ciders! - Beer, Wine & Spirits Near Me - Columbus, Georgia

Just left a review for a brewery up in the Atlanta area, and it occurred to me that I'm long overdue for giving this place the five stars it deserves. Great beer, a relaxing atmosphere, and low key and very kind employees. This place is simply terrific. Shout out to the mini location at Banks that always has a cool selection of drafts, and where you can relax on the deck while you drink up. read more

Love this place ! Only place I can truly experience great brews with fun hospitality. Also the knowledge helps form the staff since I'm a very picky beer drinker, I can never seem to find one I like except when I come here. Not easy to walk around in however, or with a wheelchair read more

Super helpful and knowledgeable folks. Great atmosphere and selection. Wide variety of local and national beers. They do growlers and crowlers. read more

Maltitude - Beer, Wine & Spirits Near Me - Columbus, Georgia

Ill preface my review with this: The beer selection is absolutely amazing and that is the one good thing. The real issue (for me anyway) is the owners of this establishment, they own Jarfly & Nonic as well. Their politics get in the way of them offering a good experience, unless you are like minded of course. So, tread lightly going to any of these three if you lean towards the Right. read more

Totally knowledgeable staff and the selection is awesome. It's like a small temple of beer. OK so they don't brew their own stuff but hey they bring in some excellent options and it's worth your while to stop by every time you are on broadway!! read more

This review is a little late, but I have always meant to come back and report my experience with this store. To be clear, I have never visited the actual establishment. But back in 2014/2015 I was dating a craft-beer enthusiast who lived in Phenix City, and I wanted to get him a special gift during the holiday season to wet his whistle. Enter Maltitudes. I called the store and purchased a gift certificate by phone, providing my full credit card details orally to the store associate (whose name escapes me at the moment, but I'll add it if I think of it) who answered the phone. Well, let's just say that not only did I receive the gift certificate -- but I also received a whole lot more than I bargained for, namely my credit card being used shortly thereafter on hundreds of dollars of fraudulent purchases at an area Walmart and ... McDonalds, I believe it was. Thankfully, my credit card company quickly identified the suspicious transactions and alerted me, ultimately closing that account number and issuing me a new number in its place. I have no idea whether the associate who took my call was directly responsible for the fraud, or whether he somehow sold my information to a third party who did the bad deed. But I was highly annoyed and inconvenienced by the entire affair, and it definitely confirmed that there was (and maybe still is, I don't know) a dishonest person on the store's staff. read more

Coming from Colorado where growler filling has been around for a while I was very happy to see that Georgia's alcohol laws finally came out of the prohibition days, got with the times, and is allowing growler fills! This is a locally, veteran-owned shop that caters to the beer (and wine) snob. I'm not sure you can use beer and snob in the same sentence, but I'm going to. They have a great, open, artisan-type shop that allows you to browse without getting in the people's way who know what they want. They also do a "limited" release keg every Sunday that is usually sold out within hours depending on the brand, and style. They have a "pick your six-pack" cooler where you can try beers of the same style, but by different brewers. The staff is very friendly, knowledgeable, and always willing to help anyone out who is either new to craft beer, or not sure of what they will like. read more

I love this place. Always great beers to choose from and friendly staff. My first place to stop when wandering for a new beer. You can message them with questions and they are quick to respond. Go check out Maltitude highly recommended read more

Awesome staff; awesome selection; feels like it should be in Atlanta but is in Columbus. Had the 3 samplers special and the chick working there was super friendly and gave great recommendations. Will definitely be back to fill my growler. :) read more

I don't drink much beer, and even I thought this place was impressive. I never knew so many different beers existed. The set up is really nice too, great curb appeal. That's the reason we walked in, it looked really cool from the street. A++ read more

I've never ever seen this business model anywhere else. I found myself in Columbus for a wedding, exploring the Riverwalk (Verdict: Bee-eh-you-tifull) and my hubs and I stumbled over this place. They're a beer store with a bar in the back. But the bar isn't a bar. It's a growler filling station. What? Kind of amazing, but my mind immediately boggles at the overhead. How do they make a profit? It's probably from a prodigious amount of tap take-overs like the one we walked into. Wild Heaven from Decatur (say it right now, ya'll--[DEE-KAY-TER]) had flooded those taps with, arguably, the best beer I've had from the South. And the lovely folks at Maltitude hooked us up with a growler for... $5. Incredible! And the fill was only $16 (for a quad!). My only complaint is they didn't sell local wine, or group the locally made beer together. It makes it a little challenging for tourists looking to sample the local suds. But maybe this isn't a place for tourists. Because it was full of smiling, laughing locals. read more

i agree with all of the reviews on here. AWESOME STAFF! AWESOME SELECTION! I have nothing else to add so here is a recipe for my mom's homemade mac and cheese:) Recipe Ingredients: 1/2 pound elbow macaroni 3 tablespoons butter 3 tablespoons flour 1 tablespoon powdered mustard 3 cups milk 1/2 cup yellow onion, finely diced 1 bay leaf 1/2 teaspoon paprika 1 large egg 12 ounces sharp cheddar, shredded 1 teaspoon kosher salt Fresh black pepper Topping: 3 tablespoons butter 1 cup panko bread crumbs Directions: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. In a large pot of boiling, salted water cook the pasta to al dente. While the pasta is cooking, in a separate pot, melt the butter. Whisk in the flour and mustard and keep it moving for about five minutes. Make sure it's free of lumps. Stir in the milk, onion, bay leaf, and paprika. Simmer for ten minutes and remove the bay leaf. Temper in the egg. Stir in 3/4 of the cheese. Season with salt and pepper. Fold the macaroni into the mix and pour into a 2-quart casserole dish. Top with remaining cheese. Melt the butter in a saute pan and toss the bread crumbs to coat. Top the macaroni with the bread crumbs. Bake for 30 minutes. Remove from oven and rest for five minutes before serving. Remember to save leftovers for fried Macaroni and Cheese. read more

We went several times and no one that worked there ever said hello or asked us if we needed help. We made it a pit stop on every trip downtown because it was so odd to us and we were gluttons for punishment that wanted to see if it would happen again, and it did, every time. With that being said I gave them a hard time about it last night and they seemed genuinely apologetic and concerned. We were boycotting them due to this, but I think we'll go back and do business with them now. They have the best craft beer selection in Columbus. Just say hello and acknowledge your customers even if you do get a lot of window shoppers. We appreciate you guys taking the time to listen. read more

Great prices, incredible variety and friendly service. Owners by the same folds who own Nonic and Jarfly and it shows in the quality and vibe. read more

Still love this place. Treat yourself to this unique store. If you love beer, this is the place for you. A great knowledge staff and awesome dog make this place a great shopping experience. They also sell healthy meat and poultry products. I can't wait until they open another store. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a little more awesome in Columbus. read more

This is my place to be. The service is impeccable. We have been coming here for a few years and Kunze knows exactly what we will like or dislike before we even taste, and he is always spot on. The other person who always knows exactly what we will like is Anna Leigh. You tell them what kind of drink you like, and they will set you up with the perfect match. The atmosphere is so chill and inviting. They have board games to play while you hang out with your friends. read more

The staff is always very friendly and helpful. The set up of the store is very well organized and you can find what you need with ease. The dog was cool. Great selection, location, and price. thanks you. read more

This place is amazing! Lots of bottles of beer to choose from and on the back wall there are 20 taps if you want to fill up a growler. You also get to have a taste for $1. Staff was friendly and able to describe the beers so you could imagine you were at a wine tasting in Sonoma. I wish Phoenix had something similar because it is not often that I am in Columbus. But should I be again, Maltitude will be a must stop. Also, great selection of sodas. Got a delicious Cream Soda. read more

What a great place! Me and a friend are here from out of town and this is a craft brew fans paradise. Unfortunately, they don't serve food and technically they're a package store. But you can sample up to 3 of the. Fine beers they have on tap. Definitely worth checking out. Come get a growler! read more

I have to give this place a 5-star because I always get my two favorite things when I stop by, beer & punched in the dick. It doesn't matter if I come in at 10am or 8pm, I'm getting some beer and I'm getting punched in the dick by that dog. Their beer is really good, but that dick punch is next level. No where else in Columbus comes close in beer or dick punches. Seriously. read more

Nice little specialty beer shop in downtown (uptown?) Columbus. We walked in on a rainy afternoon to a clean shop with a nice selection of unique brews. The guy behind the counter was helpful and friendly. They have two good sized coolers from which you can mix and match. This would be a fun shop to spend some time exploring. Could get dangerous (costly) though! read more

One of the main things about beer I enjoy is the variety. This place has it. The staff is very friendly and very knowledgeable about their selection. Also, any place that lets me bring my dog in is immediately one of my favorites! read more

They have a great selection of bottled beer. I really enjoy all the beer they have in a bottle. They rotate the draft selection frequently, although they carry a lot of stouts. They are a little overpriced, although you can figure that being downtown. I will pay the extra dollar or two for a good six pack. read more

This establishment is top-notch! The first time I went in, I was greeted immediately by the staff. They are all very friendly, personable, and knowledgable. I know little-to-nothing about beer, but I know what I like. If you let them know what you're in the mood for or what you like in a beer, they are able to provide several recommendations for you. They may even be "experts" in their field. The selection is very diverse, something for everyone. Definitely worth checking out!! read more

I ordered a couple of growlers for my boyfriend over the phone, as I live far away, and they were super helpful in assisting in picking good beers and having them ready for when my boyfriend went in to pick them up. Friendly and a great gift! read more

This place is so cool! We moved here a few months ago and it's one of our most frequented spots. Huge beer selection and the guys are very friendly and helpful. I wish their wine selection was a bit larger, but I've enjoyed the beer tastings and my husband always gets his growler filled up with something good! read more
