Reno - Liquor Stores
There are liquor stores all over the place, and if you’ve got a membership to Costco or Sam’s Club, you can find some booze there, too. Overall, though, Total Wine and Ben’s Fine Wine & Spirits have the largest selection in Reno for wine, beer, and liquor, while Whispering Vine is the place to find many of those higher-end imported wines, and Craft Wine and Beer has a fabulous selection of really yummy imported and domestic craft beers and wines as well as some spirits. Nearly all grocery stores also carry booze, perhaps even with lower prices depending on what you’re looking for, so you may want to check further through the Grocery Store listings.
