I visit here all the time for their great selection of non-alcoholic beers, wines, and spirits. When I’ve had questions the staff have always been really knowledgeable and friendly!

For beer lovers who have or want to drink non alcoholic for any reason, this place is a gem. Tons of selection, option for tastings, brands like collective arts and bellwoods kept in stock! What more can you ask for. If you’re in Ottawa and are looking for non alcoholic drinks, pass by.

Went in last night for a tasting and it was absolutely wonderful. We love making cocktails at home and were delighted to find new alternatives to recreate classics and explore new flavour profiles.
The owner was super responsive to questions and made suggestions based on our tastes and what we liked during the tasting.
This shop will definitely become a regular haunt for me for some amazing non-alcoholic options.

I was in Ottawa for a weekend, and was really looking forward to this experience - I was not disappointed. The knowledge, hospitality and selection are all top-notch, and the tasting experience was incredible. My questions were met with excellent stories and discussions, and the tasting selection was exactly what I hoped it would have been. I have already recommended it to my friends, and will continue to recommend it any time someone says they are headed to the area!

SCAM / RIPOFF
Went to test non-alcoholic wines with my wife (who can't drink at the moment). Went and had their tasting, which was 4 0.5 ounce shots of non-alcoholic wines served in thin plastic shooter glasses. There was no price listed or mentioned for the tasting, and given the quantities we had actually assumed it might be free/ nominal charge.
All the reds were actively bad, the white bubbly kind of tasted like cider and was pleasant. Prices for the non-alcoholic drinks are high, but sold in singles which can be useful for tasting the beers.
We picked up a couple drinks for trying later and went to pay. He charged us 40+ tax for the tasting (read 40$ + tax for a total of 4 ounces of juice served in plastic shot glasses), more than the actual cost had we bought the whole bottles. Left feeling scammed and pissed off at the guy at the store for not mentioning the price beforehand and for the tasting being just so bad...

Great store and selection. Friendly staff who care a lot about the products they stock.

Extremely knowledgeable employees. Prices are steep for non alcoholic drinks in my opinion but they had some interesting stuff

10:10 service ! I am a Muslim and do not consume alcohol so im always on the hunt for a good 0.0 percent brand! These guys are INCREDIBLE and so so knowledgeable!
They guided me to the right products and tripple checked just to ensure I got the 0.0% vs 0.5%
I also know that these spirits can’t be drank neat - they gave me the PERFECT mix to have and I promise you I thoroughly enjoyed it!
I got their whisky , rum, champagne and gin! Cheers to this amazing org and cheers to the sober curious !
The Carona 0s I got from another location but everything else I got from here!

Great selection of non-alcoholic drinks. The staff is super knowledgeable and they have both staples and changing offers which always makes it exciting to try new things. Definitely recommend checking them out!

Doug Oneschuk
Fantastic experience! Highly recommend for none-alcoholic cocktail options. The owners are friendly and knowledgeable. The products are very similar to the real thing. I made a gin martini from the Monday Gin at home and it was great! The only complaint I have, is all other places I have visited that offer tastings will give you the tasting free if you purchase over a certain $$ amount of product, and they only had one of each type of each spirit you could sample so we couldn’t compare brands.

Booked a tasting, which was very interesting and something different to do. The staff were super friendly, knowledgeable and welcoming, and all of the products we sampled were delicious. Amazing to think that there is such a wide variety of non-alcoholic options out there and with such different complexity and depth of flavours. We will continue to try various products from here, as the prices are also quite reasonable

Just beginning the non-alcohol journey and have found good wines to be scarce. A visit with Benson was worth the trip down town. He was friendly and knowledgeable and helped me find a few bottles that matched my tastes. I will be back. Thanks again.
