Hi to all,
New to Geneva as of 1 week ago. Coming from the US. I can and will do my part to drink as much good wine as possible, but I know that I will also miss having a good selection of beer around the apartment. Any thoughts on the store(s) with the best selection? I also know that I can travel to many great nearby beer destinations, but it would be nice to have a shop in the city that carries a decent selection - I always like to have some good Belgians and a hoppy IPA or two around at home.
Thanks for any advice.
Best,
Jahred

Try Le palais des bières. They have 3 branches. And good luck for your acclimatization to wine, it could bring you lots of pleasure...

Thanks! I'm not worried about getting acclimated to wine - I take plenty of pleasure from wine. But it's easy to find everywhere, and my real and preferred love is for good beer, which is much more difficult to find.

Well you know, a real man brews his own beer... (ahem).

And I did so in the states, but don't have the room to do so here. If you know of someone who has room to brew, I will gladly chip in for equipment and/or ingredients.

I just found a new store in 'Geneva' that has over 555 beers
and about 100 spirits. With a pretty good selection of Whisky's or Whiskey's.
I was amazed in the beer selection, with over 8 Canadian, 12 Belgian, 40 american , 60 English, 10 greek, and hundreds more, etc.
I dont work there or any commercial interest, but just the love of beer and this was an excellent discovery.
I found the website that also includes list of the stocks.
'Drinks of the World', Gare de Cornavin (in train station next to starbucks & Gidor Coiffure) www.beerworld.ch
I talked to the Manager who ordered a special bottle of Irish Whiskey, got it in a few days and got a 10% discount.
and when I compared prices, they are pretty competetive :)
