    If you're having trouble finding your favorite single malt, your girl's favorite spiked lemonade, or you're on your way to an Adams Morgan house party with empty hands, this is your one-stop liquor shop.

    I know this because I was searching for a very specific single malt, called AB Liquors, and, after some searching, the owner called me back and let me know that, although it wasn't in stock, he had ordered some more, and that out should arrive in two days.

    With that kind of service, plus the knowledge he imparted along the way about scotch fortifications, this is likely to become my go-to for all things libation-related.

    This place is a great neighborhood liquor store -- it has a great selection of specialty beer and they always have some sort of sample. I can't say that I really drink anything other than beer but they do have a heck of a selection for a neighborhood liquor store.

    Only three stars because of the high prices.

    The guys at AB are sweethearts.  Although they can be difficult when you're haggering over the price of a keg or three, they've given you a bum tap, or they sold one of the kegs you reserved, overall it's obvious that they mean well.  With a great wine selection, a pretty standard selection of six packs and keg beer, and AB's rockstar location between blockbuster and Starbucks on Columbia makes it pretty sweet.

    This store is very conveniently located in Adam's Morgan and really for being so limited in options, I am surprised this place is so great. The little Asian man who I think owns the store really knows his booze and is very very friendly. In spite of the few not so savory wanders that come into this place, I'd have to say its really so much better than you'd expect and it's well worth spending your liquor money in.

    Hell yeah!  Great selection, and the owner laughed at me for eating filthy lemon-chili peanuts.

    Great selection, great prices, extremely friendly and helpful staff.  The owner is always a pleasure to interact with.  What more could you ask for?

    Pretty awesome for the neighborhood liquor store.  Good, if not spectacular, selections of beer and liquor (and it seems like they have a good amount of wine, too, but I don't really get much of that).  Plus the guy that is usually there is quite helpy.
