Don’t wait around for something special, they will get it and then not sell it to you! Called a couple days ago, was told NORESERVATIONS. Was there when the truck arrived and then was told it was all reserved. Waited in the parking lot for an hour, talked to the guys several times, was told how many of each I could buy(2−1−1). Was never once told they wouldn’t sell me any until the truck arrived! No reservations, but their all reserved! What a waste of an afternoon. Won’t ever be back and will make sure everyone I know never shops there again!

As a casual beer enthusiast, I know what I like. But when it comes to describing that, or knowing what exactly I’m looking for, sometimes I couldn’t be more lost. I’m talking about subtle flavors and finishes of a beer that I’m in the mood for just then. I have to say about Peabody’s: I have yet to walk in and not get the most sophisticated and satisfactory help from the staff. No matter how detailed or non-specific I can be about what I’m looking for, it seems they always point me in the exact direction of what I want. I don’t usually write reviews on Unilocal!(In fact, I created this Unilocal!account just to congratulate Peabody’s), but I felt the need to commend these guys publicly. They know their stuff and keep a friendly and welcoming disposition at every opportunity. Peabody’s is certainly first class! I’d recommend Peabody’s to anyone looking for a customized beer experience.

Love love love this place. Always a great selection. They did not have my beer Mickey’s stocked but they did go above and beyond to help me find something as close! Great cheese, meat, and sweet section. Used to come here all the time when I was a younger gal. When we visit always try to drop in. Super welcoming employees ready to help! Even found a strange poem note on the ground outside added to the fun of the evening.

Peabody’s, calls themselves a wine and beer merchant, but they are much more. They also offer cheeses, chocolates and gourmet food items. There are 8 taps at a Growler Station — I noticed they had Fonta Flora which I rarely see. Tuesdays from 5 – 7PM, they do free beer tastings and Saturdays 12 Noon-5PM they hold wine tastings. Rotating beer and wine specials! Great selection and great customer service!

Peabody’s on a scale of 1 – 10 rates a 50 in customer service. The selection is Aldo out if this world. When in NC make the trip to see them in Boone. It’s totally worth if, and oh yeah, tell Big Texas sent you.

They have an extensive selection of craft beers. The staff helped me pick the perfect brew to take home. I like that they have the beers separated by region. I decided I wanted to try a West Coast beer and went with the Boont Amber Ale brewed in Boonville, CA. The packaging is what sold me. The beers can get expensive, but they are fairly priced. Although I did not buy any, they had an awesome selection of Lambics and I plan on trying the peach one when I return. The only downside is that its $ 25! They also sell growlers here, which is awesome!

This is always a must stop when I visit Boone or surrounding areas. The selection at Peabodys is second to none, and the knowledge of the staff is tremendous. I always seem to find quite a few beers that are either unavailable or sold out elsewhere in NC. Chris, the manager, is probably the most knowledgeable person I have met on the subject of beer. The staff always seems to remember me, and is always welcoming. Also, the wine selection is pretty impressive as well!

Super knowledgeable staff and an amazingly large selection of beer, wine, and other drinks! Stopped in on a whim and it was just the place we were hoping to find! It is a little pricey as noted by others. My only other gripe was the beer coolers. The place is so stocked there are mountains of beer and wine placed pretty close to the row of coolers. The selection is so large you spend a lot of time fumbling over other people and doors as they open them to look. You had to open the doors as the glass was fogged out a good bit by I am guessing years of condensation coming and going. Get these guys a bottle of Windex!

We usually stop here to purchase a bottle of wine or some craft beer when we are in the area. They have an ecellent selection. When I first started coming to Boone NC, it was a dry county. You had to drive to Blowing Rock to purchase any alcohol. So when Peabody’s came to town it was instantly appreciated.

Such a big selection! Most of which are hard to find anywhere else. My fiancé and I are both App grads, so on a trip back to visit, we decided to buy a bottle of wine from Peabody’s to age and open on our 25th wedding anniversary. Neither of us have any clue about aging wine, but the guy working there was a big help in giving us advice on what type of wines are best for aging(I thought you could age any wine– apparently not!). They also have wine and beer tastings throughout the week, and usually offer discounts on the brands that they offer samples of. I just can’t remember what days. Definitely a good stop to pick up some goodies!

Although a hair on the pricey side, a great place for beer and wine. I try to stop by if I’m ever in Boone. Lots of beers you can not easily find elsewhere.

We stumbled across this beer and wine heaven on our way to Grandfather Mountain. From the outside, we expected some decent wine selections, but nothing special. Boy, were we wrong! There are aisles upon aisles stocked full of wines ranging in price from $ 20-$ 130. It was such a large selection, I had trouble choosing. I ended up with two reds, which both turned out the be delicious. The real gem for us though, was the equally impressive beer selection. My husband is a beer geek(and proud of it), and there were several things here he had never had and a couple he’s never heard of before. They even had a small selection, called their«secret stash» of aged beers… score! He could have spent all day… and all of our money in this place, but I finally was about to drag him out with a nice selection. Our only complaint? We have to drive 4 hours to visit them again!

The guys here are very knowledgeable and the wine + beer selection is one of if not the best in this area. If you’re coming up to the mountains for any extended period of time you should come by Peabody’s for some libations. Just a note, a lot of areas around Boone are dry counties, so if you don’t get it here you may not find another reliable place for quite a while. Also, a few of the guys here make their own beer(at least they love their business, right?) and if you ask them they will usually share it with you. Often times it’s just spunk but occasionally it was pretty good.
