North Beach Wine & Spirits stocks an extensive inventory of wines from the world over along with an incredible collection of spirits. "This is not an ordinary liquor store," explains manager Greg Musick. "Although small in square footage, North Beach Wine & Spirits is huge in selection." The store's first holiday sales promotion is a great indication of the special offerings customers of North Beach Wine & Spirits will come to expect. For Saint Valentine's Day, an elegant bottle of Peter Brum Goldsparkler (a sparkling wine with real 24kt gold leaf flakes suspended within) and a pair of glass champagne flutes are special priced at $25. From the beer lover, to the wine connoisseur, the full liquor, beer, and wine store is committed to satisfying the needs of the residents and visitors of Clearwater Beach who like to drink on occasion. "Our offerings range from moderate prices on liquor, wine and beer, to a top shelf assortment that will satisfy the customer with the most discriminating taste," says Musick. The store's wine shelves are flush with wines priced for every budget and wine enthusiasts will be happy to learn that North Beach Wine & Spirits will routinely hold tastings. Their first will be held on Saturday, February 20, from 3:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. What sets the store apart from any other liquor and wine store in the area says Musick is, "The wide selection of boutique wines and beers for the most sophisticated palette. Many of these are hard to find labels from different regions of California to areas from around the world." Special orders are no problem and case discounts are available. North Beach Wine & Spirits is located at 490 Mandalay Avenue, right next to Clear Sky Beachside Café, with convenient parking. Open Monday through Saturday from 10:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. Sundays 11:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. February hours have been expanded to closing midnight daily. Phone: (727) 447-1453.
