Savor Market

 Savor Market, located on Indianola down the street from Savor Growl (its companion store), offers a selection of wine, cigars, and beer.  This being a beer site, you know what I dropped by to check out.
From the outside, it’s a simple and unassuming shop.  Inside, you’ll find one of the rare gems of the Columbus craft beer scene.  Savor Market offers the usual brands you’ll expect in most craft beer shops, like Rogue, Sierra Nevada, Stone, Dogfish Head, and the like.  But you’re also going to find quite few beers here that you won’t see on other retailers’ shelves around town – or at least I haven’t seen them.

Individual bottles and make-your-six-pack section
For example, I’ve never seen Zywiec beer (from Poland), Scaldis Peche Mel, Yeasty Boys (of New Zealand) Rex Attitude, Coniston Brewing Special Oatmeal Stout, Williams Brothers Scottish Midnight Sun, Thornbridge Halcyon, Cisco Brewers Lady of the Woods, several varieties of mead from B. Nektar, Olvisholt Brugghus Lava (a Russian Imperial Stout), Evil Twin Justin Blabaer, and several more I won’t list out.  Suffice it to say that I could make many trips to this shop before I ran out of new and interesting beers to try.

In addition to the beer in bottles, you’ll find eight taps from which you can fill a growler.
If you’re looking for a rare or unusual beer, you’ll want to check out Savor Market.
Savor Market does keep a pretty up-to-date beer menu online, which can help you find a good selection there before you arrive.
