Amazing craft beer selection. Prices are steep, but I expected that. The guys working were cool. Highly recommend.
This is my go-to home brew store. They’re very friendly, the owner Kendall is very knowledgeable about brewing and always friendly and willing to give advice. They also have an impressive selection of craft beers.
Great, friendly brewery supply and craft beer store. Theyve got tons to choose from. Well organized and very knowledgable. Theyre always happy to make a sugesstion. Excited to see what rare beers they stock. Love this place!
Nice little local spirits store with unique selection of wines, beer, soju, and sake
Cant speak about their wine or spirits collection, but I get my CO2 container refills from The Thirsty Quaker every few weeks (major carbonated water addiction) and I have no complaints. I appreciate that unlike other places around here I dont have to sit & wait for the refill (they just swap it out) or buy my own CO2 container as they lend you one and I get my deposit back anytime, likely when I move out of Jersey. The employees are always helpful and courteous & I save a bunch over getting my refills online.
Great selection of beers (and ciders, and decent selection of liquors - not where Id go for wine, but theyre not trying to be), super friendly and helpful staff. Im pretty much like a kid in a candy store every time Im in here; I might go looking for one specific thing and find it... but also find four other beers I just have to try xD
Thanks Mike for helping out with my phone order.. Fantastic service..Ill be back.👍
They have a great variety and are always switching it up! I love that they carry smaller brands not the same basic brands you can get anywhere.
A real nice selection of craft beer six-packs to go, and beer-making supplies like maltodextrin. Extremely knowledgeable staff.
Great selection of beer.
Been twice, and both times the staff were helpful, patient and knowledgable about recommendations based on probably contradictory preferences on my end lol They were flexible in giving me singles out of packs too. I was in Maine for a few days and had a unique and uncommon local beer I really liked, and found it at Thirsty Quaker a week later, and impressively saw it was the exact same price. Keep up the good work guys!
Great stop for homebrewers and beer lovers. Wide variety of ingredients and equipment for making beer and wine, plus a terrific bottle shop. Helpful staff, too.
I frequent the thirsty Quaker regularly and find the location perfect, the selection perfect and if there is something I want and they are out of stock they can get it. Vast selection and decent prices.
Great store with a decent selection of cider and mead in addition to beer and home brewing supplies.
Home sweet home brewing
Great shop with a variety of brewing ingredients. They had everything we were looking for and were very knowledgeable when we had questions. Lots of great beers to grab while youre waiting for your brew to be done, too! 🍻
The TJ Maxx of beers you always find good new stuff to try ;)
Big variety to choose from, lots of different and local things to try. I like that you can mix and match from the fridge
Limited selection for more than beer / cider
Best place around to get craft beer! Great focus on NJ and other local breweries. Lots of homebrew supply, and a curated selection of wine and spirits.
Great local spot to pick up from, they have a TON of homebrewing equipment and tons of craft beers
Great staff, good selection for home Brewers. Love their weekly beer tasting and unique selection. Beer selection is great, but TQ has focused more on liquor and wine to diversify its clientele. Some beers never return but theres always something new to try!
Great place, friendly staff, good selection. Wish they sold more individual cans. Will be back.
Nice place a good selection of beer and wine
Really nice place. Great selection. They also let you have a free Herseys kiss if you pay in cash, which I love!
Everyone needs to come here. They have such a great variety in a small space of craft beers as well as some wines and spirits as well. My boyfriend and I love comming here to see all the unique finds! Our top choice to get alcohol in the area.They also have a good amount of home brew supplies. I do not do home brew but they make me want to try it! Our first time in the were harvesting hops from the back yard at the counter! They also allow us to bring our dog in which is always a plus, they even have dog treats. Love love love it here.
The Thirsty Quaker has a good selection of beers and wines, and the staff is generally helpful. They do some nice tastings every once and a while, as well. My only gripe is that they have a limited selection of cold beers in styles that I enjoy, which is sometimes all I want when I pop in after work. I know its a minor detail, but its nice not having to plan ahead to have a cold beer of my choice at a moments notice.
Great for Homebrew supplies, and rare craft beer/wine finds.
Great NEIPA selection an nice employee who are very helpful
Always good beer selections
Great spot for homebrew supplies and craft beer
What a selection! Knowledgeable staff
This place is awesome. They have everything you need to brew your own beer, and a very helpful staff. The last time I checked in they were looking to get a growler refill set up. Not sure if the city gave them the O.K. yet but regardless, amazing selection of beer! BRAVO!
Great beer collection. I was able to get Jai Alai IPA founders all day, florida cracker and some good collection.
Establishment has a solid selection and a good location, but the staff are almost always off. For example, during my last visit I purchased some wine that Id also purchased during a previous visit. The cashier said something like still (x dollar amount), just like last time in a very judgmental tone. Regardless of why Im purchasing the wine (for a dish Ive been trying to perfect for weeks for my husband before his grandma visits), I do not appreciate my purchase bagged with a free sample of condescension. Youre selling alcohol, do not assume anything about your clientele if theyre frequent patrons. Pretty much the norm here. I will not be back.
Great neighborhood craft beer store. Friendly staff and awesome selection.
A truly unique spot. This is a full service liquor store with a focus on a diverse selection of craft beers as well as a very solid whisky selection. On top of that, the Quaker offers everything any homebrewer could ask for from the beginner to the seasoned brewer. Definitely check this place out.
Decent beer selection and full service homebrew store.
Greta place for beer/wine/liquor and the home brewers
Good selection and they have brewing supplies and yeast
I love craft beer. Ive been around to all the liquor stores in the area and this place has a great selection. I heard of this place of a while ago before they opened in the fall and Ive been anticipating it since. Totally pleased in the end. Craft beer is their main thing and man they got a ton. Lots of breweries and specialty beers that other liquor stores dont get in stock. The owner goes out of his way to update the website with every shipment of new beer!! Super friendly owner and he knows his stuff.I made my way to the back of the shop and took a peek in the grain room. Wall to wall grain bins. Im not a homebrewer but its cool to know I can walk over to the Thirsty Quaker and get all the supplies I need to make my first beer.They got a parking lot as well. I dont know how that got that in JC.
This brew shop is great because its also a liquor store that includes a nice selection of ciders. We hiked many blocks to see what they had, and we walked out with 2 bags worth of goods and alcohol. My only problem is that its not closer to my house.
Great selection and service.
Helpful staff that helped me pick out some beers I would have not have otherwise tried. They have their own parking lot!! Which for Jersey city is rare.
I come here for homebrew supplies. Theyre very well stocked. Theyre great. The owner and staff are very friendly and helpful. I also buy fancy craft beer.
Great place for the home brewer!
They always have the best selection of craft brews and I love that you can pick up a nice bottle of wine here too.
A great mix of Homebrew supplies and craft beer
Good selection and prices, helpful staff too.
Great selection, friendly and knowledgeable staff. My go to place for fun beers. AND, they deliver. Win win.
Unique finds, knowledge staff, dog friendly, all the staples. Love this place!!
A very extensive boutique beer selection and very knowledgeable staff . Theyll also occasioanlly help you find beers that arent there and bring them in .
A unique selection of craft beers compared to the area. They also have an email newsletter with new brews they got in which is quite useful.
Local Jersey City honey from the Hamilton park area! Curated selection of fine beers, Meade and brewing supplies. Nice staff.
Has all the basic supplies to get started, low key and no pressure. Well organized and a wide choice of grains and yeasts to choose from. Friendly.
Fun and friendly homebrew supply and craft beer store. Good selection over various styles of beers. The staff is very knowledgeable and helpful. Parking is available.
Great selection of beer, wine, and spirits. Extremely helpful and knowledgable staff who even give lessons on making beer, wine, and mead. They have ample parking and often hold events (either small tastings in the store or larger community events) as well, so its good to check on their Facebook page to see whats going on if youre not limited to what time you can visit.
These guys have relatively small but eclectic selection of beer, wine, and liquor. I would go to them for their beer over wine selection which seems to be their speciality. They also have home brew kits and cater to enthusiasts. This isnt the place to go pick up Coors Light.
Great customer service, very friendly and knowledgeable. Great beer and cider selection!
Staff is really nice. They have a huge selection of craft beer and is my go to spot for trying something new.
Kendall and the crew there are awesome. Always ready to help pick something out if you need a suggestion, and they always have new and different beers at a fair price.
Love this place. Very good wines and beers
Definitely one of the best & diverse places to get your wines, beers & sprites!!!
Just called asking for help finding muslin bags for steeping the grain. I dont live near them, so I cant visit as they are out of the way. But I asked if they knew what kind of store might also sell muslin bags - preferably closer. Snotty girl who picked up the phone replied, Oh, you might want to try this thing called Google, etc... Condescending and smart-ass reply to a potential customer equals 1-star review and not even a chance of a visit from me ever. The opposite of helpful. Avoid.
Good selection of beers and brewing staff
Local store for brewing supplies and friendly staff. Also has a very good selection of beer and cider, small selection of wine, but generally well chosen.
Great prices, friendly staff, broad and diverse selection of beer
Great for picking up a few things to homebrew or to check out some different beers.
Friendly staff, small but decent selection of beer and liquor, and everything you need to make your own from scratch
Good selection. Would like more variety in the IPAs
Nice little shop that has a good selection of craft brews and homebrewing supplies. Has some beers that not even Buy-Rite carries.
Awesome selection of beers in a neighborhood store.
A homebrew supply store that also sells beer is a unique combination; not to mention the selection of rare beers. Thanks for adding to the neighborhood.
Best staff in Downtown
Great neighborhood treasure.
100s of Craft beers. Home Brewing supplies and equipment too ! Owner is a home brewer and does beer, cider, mead, and wine too!
Very good stuff here
Offers all that you need for home brew and the suds whilst you brew.
Top notch selection and service.
Always on point with brew hardware...
Fabulous collection of beers and spirits. A lifetime of choices.
All types of local craft beer to choose from. My go to place when I want Departed Soles and dont want to walk all the way to their brewery.
Little pricy but awesome selection and open late.
Very well stocked, great staff and an awesome owner.
Great selection of craft beers
