Thinking of stopping any other time? Well, it's a clean store and they have a surprisingly decent wine selection. That said, prices are easily $2-3 more per item than other spots. I paid $10 (!) for s bottle of Cristalino ($8 at Metcalfe's) and it was clearly old and mostly flat. The folks working weren't especially pleasant either. No reason for me to return.

It's in a non-sketch location, clean, will not overwhelm you, and provides a decent selection without skimping on the good stuff. From my limited understanding, it is family-owned, and they are knowledgable, friendly, and helpful. Prices are fairly standard and if you want the whole enchilada, BBL also sells cold mixers and snacks. Not a bad drive if you live in West Allis, Wauwatosa or Downtown Milwaukee and want a place you can find a good selection without a hassle or the feel of walking into a huge liquor emporium.

Cute wine shop in Wauwatosa!…read more I had been wanting to visit this place ever since they opened and finally was able to check it out! They have a large selection of wine to buy as well as taste at the bar. Had to grab a bottle of my favorite pinot noir rose. The owner was very nice and knowledgeable about the wine. We were able to sample before choosing a pour too. They have a few specials including their $20 wine flights on Wednesdays and $16 champagne and chips on Thursdays. Before 5pm they also have $5 off their charcuterie. You can select from 3/4/5 items off their charcuterie menu. They also have other snacks as well. They were making a burrata, asparagus, and pepita dish that I wish we would have had time to try. Can't wait to come back this summer and sit outside!

In fact, i've had several friends stop there on the way to my house for dinner, and they always comment to me on how nice those guys at the liqour store are!

The waitstaff will walk you through how that works your first time. We started with some of the taste & share plates - showing off WI cheese to the out of towners - and then a few people shared some gnocchi and beef tartare while a couple people got burgers. We had maybe 4 bites leftover, and no room for dessert, it was a personal victory. I'm sad I didn't get photos because I love the feel of each unique area that's here. The restaurant is bigger than you think because it's subdivided into smaller rooms. We had a group of 7 for a work event (which meant I kept my phone put away) and were in a cozy little nook in the back by ourselves, I'd never even noticed this little spot. What a fantastic time we had!

It's a great environment with a lot of good drink options. I always opt for the Parker rolls which are tasty but again expensive for the amount you get, I typically order the trout (which until coming here I didn't realize was essentially the same as salmon). It's very good and the potato pancake is a nice touch. Over my visits I've also enjoyed trying the short rib gnocchi, butter chicken, and brussels. They also have a small party room which I have attended an event in before which is always a nice touch. It's secluded and of course much quieter than their main dining area which can get pretty loud!

Inside, they stock the basics - beer (mostly domestics with a few microbrews thrown in), wine (lots of "bum wine" but some ok bottles too) and lots and lots of malt liquor.

Skatterbrain Dark Chocolate Banana Whiskey: Skatterbrain produces a plethora of eccentrically…read moreflavored whiskeys. Information on Skatterbrain is next to non-existent, but I can tell you that my "research" revealed all of their whiskeys share one thing in common (well maybe two if you include they're all fun flavors). That commonality is they all have an animal wearing sunglasses on the bottle. In the case of the Dark Chocolate banana Whiskey, it's appropriately a gorilla. Total Wine (where I purchased it) describes it as smooth Canadian whisky blended with the flavors of dark chocolate and banana with rich, fruity, and complex qualities. I question the reliability of that though as Skatterbrain spells it as "whiskey" on their bottle, which is typical of American and Irish Whiskey, but not Canadian "Whisky". I found the chocolate flavor to be stronger than the banana, but the two make an interesting combo. I wasn't bananas about it initially, but it grew on me, making it an acquired taste. I don't know how others drink this, but I found it worked nicely in my version of a "Dirty Monkey" (recipe below). Although I found this whiskey to my liking, I still prefer my go to banana rum for this type of drink. Doughboy approved Doughboy_Food_Reviews Doughboy Dirty Monkey: -30-50ml Dark Chocolate Banana Whiskey -5 oz milk of choice -1 tsp sugar free chocolate syrup -21g chocolate protein powder -1/4 diced large banana or 1/3 medium banana -1 tsp peanut butter -4 medium sized ice cubs -approximately 1/2 tsp xanthan gum to thicken -Blend well in a standard blender, pour and enjoy

Staff was pretty helpful. Internet is kind of spotty when you're trying to search for an item and they do have a rewards program, but you really have to consume a lot to get any benefits as it only lasts a few months and then your points fall off.
