beer depot – Main Party Store

Have you ever wished you could be the first one in town to hear about the arrivals of seasonal beers, limited-release wines, and small-batch spirits that are hard-to-find? Well, we’ve had a solution for some time now; just head over to MainDepotConnection.com (or sign up right here on Main Party’s home page), and get on the list! What list, you ask? The VIP list that puts all this information right in your inbox, that’s what list! We don’t flood you with a torrent of trivial notices, because our Main Man David is too busy running the store and keeping the shelves stocked for you! But every couple of weeks or so, David will send you a friendly personal message giving you the low-down on all our latest arrivals and any especially-special deals we may be offering. If you’ve read this far, that means you probably didn’t get David’s latest missive, so we’ve included it below. So if you want to be the first kid on the block to know about our next round of new arrivals, just sign up, and we’ll send info like this a good week or so before it ends up on the website. And as you probably know, that can be the difference between the haves and the have-nots when it comes to limited and seasonal releases!

Here’s the latest from David:

Having operated Main Party since 1989, we can lay claim to a few interesting things. Since the demise of the legendary Village Corner, we unquestionably have the largest selection of wine in town, with about 3,000 to choose from. Last we knew, we also have the biggest selection of beer in town, with over 1500, which includes a massive selection of craft brews and imports. And we also have had the longest on-line presence of any local beer and wine sellers; our site first lit up in 1999. That last fact has also unfortunately been a minor impediment; although we were ahead of the curve several years ago, the site has become something like a solid old house with little additions built on the side, with a WordPress blog tacked on (you’re reading it!), and a not-so-well-maintained searchable inventory. That’s all going to change in the next few months though, as we finally blow out the old site and update our technology a bit.

We still don’t have a very active social networking presence; we decided a while back that there’s just too much “noise” in that realm for our busy staff to manage things in a way that actually benefits our guests. But recently, as a stepping stone to launching our new site with lots of other new features, we launched MainDepotConnection.com, where you can sign up to get subscriber only specials and be the first to learn about new arrivals of wine and craft beer, not only here at Main Party, but also at the historic Beer Depot, just a few blocks away. Sometimes one store has specials or new items that the other doesn’t, or if one store sells out of a limited release item, the other may have it. Signing up is a great way to stay ahead of the game.

Our latest wine specials are HERE, and the beer specials are HERE. With October almost upon us and the holiday season just around the corner, this is a great time to plug in and be ahead of the game.
