New to the area and was struggling to find Noilly Prat Dry Vermouth for cooking. (Side note; if you…read morehaven't tried Noilly Prat, I highly recommend as this stuff is amazing.) After calling multiple stores, including requesting a special order from Hy-Vee two separate times only to be ignored, I about gave up. These guys came through, ordering a case of this vermouth. Customer experience matters and this experience solidifies me not only being a return customer but also recommending this business.

On day seven hundred of social distancing, I needed booze…read more (Ok... really it was day 18. Our supply was low and the weekend was near. Plus I have kids, that I am attempting to 'school' in some fashion during this who pandemic thing. I knew I lacked patience as a human... I now know with absolute certainty I do as a teacher, too. And before you ask-- while I do not believe it is drinking alone when your kids are there-- this is for afterwards. Call it a reward for a job well done? Or perhaps a beverage to wash away the stresses of the day.) I started to explore my potential zero contact options in the area. I realllllly wanted to order online and drive on over to have it loaded in my vehicle. I tend to linger when buying adult beverages and don't make up my mind in a timely manner. There are just SO many options, ya know?! I thought I'd end up using my local grocery store for this beer... margarita... rum... liquid sanity run. But alas, Bootleggin Barzini's allows you to order online! Right on. #supportsmallbusinesses Well, their selection is superb. (I knew that already though, having frequented this biz at least a dozen times before-- pre-pandemic.) But what surprised me is while a lot of their inventory was OBVIOUSLY not online, they had a lot of local craft beers and not so local craft beers ready for purchase. (Even some Big Grove ones I didn't even know were a thing.) I filled my cart. Had the option to pay in person or online. (Hello. Zero contact.) And then the option of picking up anytime between 11-10P. I selected my time. Showed up then. A co-owner was waiting outside the door for me... loaded my liquid rewards in my SUV and away I went. I think their pricing is always a bit high but that being said, whether it is offering carryout booze or having a supremely knowledgeable staff member talking beer with you-- the service is high at Bootleggin Barzini's. Always. They also have adult beverages that you can't find elsewhere in the area... so take that into account for the extra couple of dollars per six pack. I know I'll be back.

Jack was awesome in helping me track down some specific beers I was looking for.

Small but well stocked and easy access from anywhere in Iowa City.

Most are dark, cramped, shady places with sticky floors that one tries to get in and out of as quickly as possible. With little time to look around, your normal trip to a liquor store is a five minute ordeal. Liberty view wine and spirits is the exact opposite. It is bright, open, inviting. The selection is overwhelming and I found myself having a hard time believing I'd already been in there 30 minutes simply looking around at all the different beers. I can't even imagine how long I would have been in there had I strolled through the numerous isles of wine and liquor. I can also tell you that the owner is incredibly nice. Even though it had been years since I had been in her gas station on the corner of 965, she immediately recognized me and made me feel welcome. I look forward to stopping by here each week to pick up something new from their incredible selection.

The manager here is a connoisseur of finer beverages and the place shows it. Upon entering you're greeted by plenty of wine. Highfaluntin bottles to three buck chuck and all things in between. To the back right is an amazing selection of larger bottles of microbrews that range from light to dark, to fruity to holly. Second only to Jon's and a couple spots in Seattle in variety and with a taste for any palate. To the left in the back are the six packs that again range from known to mysterious. The management is making a concerted effort to rotate the selection and seriously, it's rad. They're building the Iowa microbrew selection and have a great variety of regional and beyond brews. Best part is they'll often sell them individually. Liquor selection is good, however, the best part is that the manager will take requests. He's got some great connections and scores some tough regional favorites. Overall, I've been very impressed with the selection and service. A close second to Jon's and on par with Barzini's. Well played Hyvee!

The back room features a great selection of wine with quick quips describing the wine, which makes it handy for people like me who don't care to read aristocratic wine descriptions like "oak-ey" and "herbaceous." The owner did give us a discount on a box full of wine! Score! I was informed that the wine shop is partnering with the Art Gallery across the street to have a "wine and paint" night, where like minded ladies and gents get together for creations and libations!
