Distillery

I needed to pick up a bottle of Gin and was driving by the Capilano liquor Depot today on the my way home. I have never been in there before but thought I would run in and grab it quick. I had my daughter with me who came in the store as she has done many times before in different liquor stores. I walked in with my daughter behind me, I grabbed the bottle and went to the till with my daughter in tow. The guy at the till said he needs to see ID from us and I show him mine, then he says he needs to see my daughters ID. I told him I am the one buying it and I showed you mine. He says it doesn’t matter that she is with me so he needs to see hers too. I said she doesn’t have ID she’s a minor and he said that he can’t sell anything to me then and was very rude about it. I have been in many different liquor stores and I have never had this issue. The sign on the door clearly states that you can be asked for ID if you appear to look under the age of 25 years old. I am 47 and have no problem showing my ID, which I did. The sign on the door also indicates that minors are permitted in the store when accompanied by an adult which my daughter was. My daughter did not touch or carry anything she was just beside me. But yet I was still refused sales just because she was with me. That doesn’t even make any sense considering the liquor laws in Alberta permit minors in liquor stores when accompanied by an adult. But obviously not at the Liquor Depot in Capilano. So I left and we stopped at the next liquor store I drove passed, me and my daughter walked in I grabbed a bottle of Gin like I did before and walked to the till. The cashier had no problem selling it to me and even made friendly small chat with my daughter and we were on our way. Fyi to anyone that plans on bringing their kids into the Liquor Depot in Capilano be prepared to be refused sales even though the sign on the door indicates minors are allowed. I will never go back to the Liquor Depot in Capilano Mall it’s not worth the hassle, I’ll spend my money elsewhere

Welcome to Albertino Liquor... to the right will likely be one of the really friendly owners. To the left full shelves of liquor from all over the world. Sam, one of the owners called us, wanted some ice, we were excited. We stopped by and what we found was a liquor store with personality. A place where a few families are fed each time you buy liquor and ice from here. Sam’s family and mine. That is the beauty of local, of the independent, you are not giving your money to wealthy people with lots of it, you are giving it to a few people who live and work around where you live. When Sam takes his family for dinner, it could be at a restaurant where you work. Sam is able to feed his family because you shop at his liquor store. You are able to feed yours because Sam buys the food where you work. I am crazy. I love the independent, the try to compete against giants. You never get rich, you pay your bills, save enough for a vacation each year. I am really excited to have Albertino Liquor as a client. You should to because when you support local as they do with ice based on where ice is manufactured, you are helping create manufacturing jobs in the Edmonton area. The proof in the pudding is the boss bought Ouzo and I bought Fish Bone IPA. Just by using the local ice company they increased their sales, got a 5 star review, ... and more... because I am excited about jobs where I live. We should all be excited by jobs where we live. Albertino Liquor is creating jobs where we all live. I applaud them!

Friendly staff and cheap prices and lots of different stuff other stores don't carry and a huge Parkin lot !!!!

Great prices, friendly staff, good variety , lots of parking

Best deals on the ave. Cheap and friendly

Pretty good prices and very friendly staff. Generally speaking it is a pleasure to shop here.

The distillery tour was amazing! Very informative guide who knew what he was talking about. Loved tasting all of the different drinks they have to offer - especially the barrel aged gin. I will definitely be back!

I visited the windermere one for the first time and it was a nice shopping experience. They offer good range of liquor. There's section for item on sale and you get good wines often in sale. Also, the products are nicely categoriezed and the transition from beer to hard liquor is a good experience. You also have a walk in cooler, where the beers are stored. The staff is helpful and are attentive. Overall a good experience buying from this place. Do try, but surely be mindful to carry your ID to be produced if required.

Went in today to grab a few beers, the person working was walking around the floor without a mask yelling loudly into his speakerphone. Won't be going back.

This location is one I like to visit as it has a very nice selection of beers. It is clean, bright, and stock always seems available, even for flyer discounted items. Last night the cashier was fantastic (sorry, didn't catch her name but smaller in stature and with black hair) in her patience in helping us with our items. Will be back!

These are some of the best prices I've seen for alcohol! Plus, they have such a random variety of wine that you'll never get bored!

This liquor store has the best customer service in the city. The merchandising is top of the line everything is clean looks amazing and the manager she’s amazing she always ensures we have an amazing experience every-time we visit! So sweet and so kind.

Love Black Diamond! Found them at a holiday market and have been a loyal fan ever since. St. Albert is lucky to have them. Their apple pie liquor is AMAZING as are all of their canned cocktails. Earl Grey mule is my fave. I also appreciate that they offer zero proof options for those who can’t or choose not to drink alcohol.

At Peter’s Liquor, they always have what I am looking for and if they don’t - they will bring it in. Great people own this establishment and I would rather shop local than at a chain liquor store.

The staff here are great! Very helpful and friendly, always willing to help out customers and fellow store teams! I wouldn’t go anywhere else in Airdrie :)

Always a great experience at this liquor store. The best selection of Whiskey and ice cold beers. Management always ensures that I leave satisfied with a smile on my face. Definitely recommend stopping here for alcohol in Airdrie.

Trash, (Gail) they watched me like a hawk the whole time, and made me feel uncomfortable. They profiled me... Won't be returning to this facist overpriced dive of a freaking place!💀

I ordered some wine online and paid quite a bit in shipping to get it to be in BC, so I was very frustrated when they messed up my order. I emailed many times with no reposnes. Finally, i was told they would add the appropriate wine to my next order, I said i would not be making another order anytime soon and they needed to come up with another solution. I emailed a few more times with no response, finally another woman emailed and said they would refund the product I did no receive. this refund never came, even though I followed up twice. Very frustrating situation. I would not recommend ordering from them.

They have great prices that are usually lower than the other stores. They always have the newest liquors available for good deals. The owner and his employee are really nice guys, and are always very helpful. It's my go to store in Airdrie.
