Buzz was created to be different from anything
else. Mission accomplished. Whether a self-
appointed expert or recently street legal,
BUZZ’s ever evolving selection of curated wine
& craft beer (current count 4,000 wines, 500
beers) will serve up something to your liking
and give you an education in the process. Ex-
plore on your own or have one of their incredi-
bly knowledgeable and friendly staffers show
you around. These guys love what they do and
can’t wait to tell you all about it.
Champions of the nontraditional winemakers,
Buzz celebrates the artisans who create small
productions or as Buzz likes to say “wines that
taste like they came from somewhere.” They
taste 300-400 wines a week, but only add 20
wines a week from those tastings. As a result,
there is always a dozen or more open bottles
on premises, so chances are great that what-
ever wine they are really excited about on a
given week is available for tasting.
!
They stock more than 500 of the world’s best
artisan beers in their refrigerated case all 90
point or above (a reference to the BOS (Beer
Advocate Overall Score “outstanding” rating) -
see, you are learning things already!) The
promise is to offer the most unique and best
beer for the dollar.
!
When you find something you like, buy it! The
stock changes daily so that recent find may not
be on the shelves by the end of the week.
!
Buzz also hosts weekly tasting events. With
names like Thursday Flight Night and Beer O’-
clock, you know you are in for a good time.
But you don’t have to wait for an event to en-
joy the bar. Many an epic night has started at
Buzz and many view Buzz as the place to
start. The space is intimate and inviting with a
white marble beer bar (repurposed from con-
struction in the building it resides in) and stools
deliberately designed to look light but carry
enough weight to make anyone think long and
hard before using one to end an argument.
And as a backdrop, a screen plays odd but
charming vintage movies and clips.
!
They like to say buzz is more like a record store
than a museum. A welcoming space
where browsing and sampling is encouraged,
as long as you’re at least 21.
