It’s been a while since I’ve done an installment of Beer Run, my series looking at the beer selections for local corner stores — mostly because I haven’t seen too many new ones.
However, there’s a new at 3443 14th Street NW, Dubai Market, and I’m glad I stopped in. They have a big selection of craft beers for good prices, plus lots of other things.
There’s a whole wall of beer, including lots of good ones — Stone IPA was $9.70 and Lagunitas and DC Brau were both $9.49 for a six pack. Oddly, things like Bud Light Lime were a bit higher than you’d think at $6.49, but still not bad. They also had a fairly big wine selection, and the rest of the market is pretty interesting, lots of Ethiopian food, clothing and other items. They also had the usual corner store standbys like candy, chips and soda.
Selection: 4.5 of 5, a wide range of cheap to good
Price: 5 of 5, some great deals
Ambiance: 4 of 5, bright and cheery.
That amounts to 13.5/15, a great (and subjective) score! Check them out.
