I was visiting a friend in town and wanted to find some local ciders and kept only finding Angry Orchard everywhere I went. I saw reviews for Spike's and decided to check it out. So glad I did! Wow! What variety of everything! I was overwhelmed navigating through all the beers and IPAs to find ciders but found some local ones. Can't wait to try them!

Spikes is definitely the best Bottle shop in Chico! They have the biggest beer selection in the area, so it's really easy to find unique beers everytime you walk in. They have a really cool research fridge that is full of random finds that are worth a try if you are feeling adventurous. I highly recommend this bottle shop for anyone that loves beer! You will find what your heart desires at Spike's bottle Shop. Pro tip - join the Facebook page called "Chico Beer Enthusiest / CBE" because the owner is always posting special finds that are in limited supply. read more

I ONLY came in here to check out the cider selection and I wasn't disappointed. There is only so much floor space one can dedicate to one variety of drink and there was some lacking (I really need to find Ace's orange cider) but there was a lot there I'd never seen before. Customer behind me in line saw I was paying $34 for my purchases and asked if I was really paying $34 for beer. First off, cider is far more interesting in beer. Second, I don't need your hillbilly self commenting on what I'm buying. Judging from your look, inability to read the bottle, and method of speech you probably came in just to get some swill to get you drunk. So be aware that people like this may be in there to question your purchases. Star Liquors is my standby favorite and I've never been made to feel uncomfortable in their store like this. read more

Absolute insane amount of different beers. My first trip to spikes I was looking for a specific 'one run only' beer and while Spikes was sold out, Kevin recommended I check out another store that had it. This speaks to a business that cares about happy customers and great craft beer as much as it cares about making a buck. Since then, between that 'customer first' experience, the huge beer selection and great prices, spikes has been my go to for good beer. They also have everything else you would expect at a liquor store, domestic beer, snacks, energy drinks ect. read more

I'm always surprised by how friendly Spike's employees are. They make it a personal mission to find exactly what you're craving. Their knowledge and selection is something you'd expect from San Francisco. You also would never guess from the facade that Spike's is the home of the biggest group of beer connoisseurs in Northern California, the Chico Beer Enthusiasts. Stop in next time you're nearby, you won't be disappointed. read more

Spikes is easily what I consider the heart of Chico's craft beer ever growing community. Not only do they have an awesome bottle selection but Kevin who runs the joint will do everything he can to get you what you want if they don't have it on hand. Do not go there in search of hot dog buns, go there in search of friendship and great beer. Always ahead of the game when it comes to finding new and exciting beers. read more

Spike's stands-out from other bottle shops because they are willing to try new things. Spike's puts Bud-Miller-Coors beers on sale at prices that are competitive to major retailers. They also carry first-in-town products like 32 oz. cans of Miller High Life. Spike's is responsive to customers and will order you a case of something if you want it. I shop at Spike's because they carry 40 oz. bottles of St. Ides, but I always pick up other things they sell while I'm there. The employees are friendly. read more

Never have I encountered a better stocked shop, or a more knowledgeable staff.

Wide beer selection. I always find a beer I want to drink. God positive happy service. Sales floor merchandising usually a mess. End caps empty, not organized, neat, clean at all. It matters a little with low standard store presentation but the beer keeps me coming back. The owner was phone networking warning others and nervous of selling top minors and that "Moe" was in town checking stores. Sounds like he has something to worry about. read more

Absolutely phenomenal experience at Spikes Bottle Shop! I've been to countless liquor stores over the years, but Spikes truly stands out as something special. From the moment you walk in, you're greeted by the friendliest staff who genuinely care about helping you find exactly what you're looking for. Their selection is incredible - easily the best variety of beer, whiskey, and tequila I've seen anywhere in the area. Whether you're hunting for rare bottles or everyday favorites, they've got you covered. The build-your-own 6-pack option is genius and lets you try new things without committing to a full case. What really sets them apart is their imported snack selection - it's like discovering a hidden treasure trove of unique treats from around the world that pair perfectly with their beverages. You can tell they put real thought into curating products that complement each other. But honestly, it's the customer service that makes this place shine. The staff are knowledgeable, patient, and always willing to make recommendations based on your preferences. They remember returning customers and make you feel like family rather than just another transaction. Spikes Bottle Shop has earned a loyal customer in me. If you're looking for exceptional selection, fair prices, and service that goes above and beyond, this is your spot. Highly recommend! read more

If you love beer, Spike's should always be your first choice in Butte County. They have the best selection around, and unlike some of the other bottle shops in town, Kevin the owner is a true craft beer fan who is super knowledgable, friendly and has great taste in beer/liquor. I first came to Spikes in search of a DogFish Head beer I couldn't find anywhere else, and after a short conversation Kevin ordered the beer and had it in stock within a few days. On top of tons of amazing stouts, IPAs, Belgium's, lagers and such, my favorite thing about Spike's selection is that they specialize in sour beers. I've never seen such a great variety and quantity of sour beers in any bottle shop I've ever been to! Kevin is a great guy and a hard worker, and he goes above and beyond to engage with and serve the community. Spike's one of Chico's best kept secrets... and I'm letting the cat out of the bag! read more

This place is like beer heaven !! They have everything you could possibly want. If they don't have it they can special order it for you and they gave me a discount for buying the whole case so that was very nice of them. My husband said it was the best whisky selection in town by far so that's a big plus to everyone who is into the liquor stuff. A decent wine selection but that's not what they're known for so I don't expect it to be incredible but they had some good stuff from what I saw. Definitely the only place in chico to shop for booze !! read more

They have a HUGE selection ranging from regular craft brews, specialty beers, wine, liquor, that domestic crap that your brother drinks even though you ridicule him every time he takes a sip of that foamy yellow water, to the best candy selection in Chico!

Spikes has the biggest selection of craft beer in our area with the most knowledgeable staff. They go above and beyond what most stores will do to keep the beer geeks satisfied and asking for more. If it's possible to get it on the shelf they do. The place is literally overflowing with great beer!! Best selection best prices best place to go hands down!! read more

I became a mouth-breather within seconds of beginning to peruse their refrigerated section of craft beers and it was many refrigerators later (and full-on cotton-mouth) that I found, from the help of a most wonderful lady, what I had been looking for - Knee Deep Brewery's Simtra triple IPA! What a selection! New pit-stop! read more

Another Chico Classic. This is the place to get your party started. Prices are always the best and they are very knowledgeable. Best beer selection. I have found the prices here are as good as Costco on some really old whiskey I happened to need. read more

I would consider this more of a straightforward educational tour, rather than one that gives you a dad joke per minute (this could be a pro or a con depending on who you are). I thought one of the most interesting parts was stepping into the refrigerated hop storage area and being able to hold a hop cone and smell everything. The tour ends with a tasting of four beers and we each got a souvenir keychain. The Brewery Tour and Tasting was $13.26 per person after tax. If you remove the cost of the beer and the keychain, the tour itself is

Visiting Sierra Nevada Brewing's original facility in Chico has been on my brewery bucket list for…read moremany years. It was at the same time unexpected and also exactly as I had imagined. The brewery is outside of downtown on a huge campus. Public free parking is covered and nearby, you can see the employee entrance and all the brewery buildings beyond. The restaurant & bar entrance is closest to the parking (see separate review), but there's so much more to see on your visit. For beer fans, the highlight will probably be the taproom and merchandise shop in the farther building. It definitely felt like the employee bar, with many clearly finishing shifts for a beer before heading home. It's a small bar, but has an amazing tap selection including some not available to try anywhere else. They have small tables too, which overlooks like the tour entrance area and merchandise store. It's huge and there's a ton of swag. You can also get all their fresh cases and special bottled selections to go, again including some not available elsewhere. Prices are reasonable and it's definitely worth a stop! If you want to do a tour, they offer many different ones including ones with special tastings but they should be booked ahead of time.

My server ran my card and brought the check out before we each even had a bite of the meal making it awkward.
