Craft beer store? Anybody have a recommendation for a liquor (beverage I guess) store that has a good wide selection of craft beers? Wegmans is ok but looking to find some other options.

AJ’s beer warehouse, Beers of the world (kinda,) the Speedway gas station in Bushnell’s Basin

Beers of the World is good but I've found lately they've gone the way of quantity over quality. There's a real lot to choose from, but very little is rare, hard to find or really out of the ordinary.
AJ's is great and has a constantly rotating selection, so it's likely you'll be able to find more oddball, one-offs, limited releases and generally harder to find beers. Also your best choice for can releases and local beers. The tap
One Stop and Dewey Beverage are comparable to one another, although the former is more expansive. Dewey Beverage is extremely well-curated and carries some really cool, hard to find beers, but all around can be more expensive.
Steamer's in Bushnell's Basin has a really cool little selection and has excellent sales on out of season or older beers if you're into that.
WhichCraft is a great tasting room, but I never go out of my way to go there. Cans and bottles tend to be overpriced and the selection isn't anything special.
Amans in Irondequoit has a pretty good selection. Nothing out of the ordinary
I haven't seen anything at the North Winton 7-11 you can't get at Wegmans for cheaper. Out of all of them, Dewey and AJ's are my go tos.

The big guys are AJ's beer warehouse and Beers of the world. The smaller more intimate shops are North Greece Grocery and Dewey Beverage.

One Stop Brew shop is nice too, not nearly as big as AJ's or Beers of the World though. There's at least a few other stores worth looking at if you close to them as well. One example is Aman's (farm market?) on Empire Blvd.

I got to One Stop Beer Shop in the plaza at the corner of Ridgeway Ave and Long Pond. It's smaller than AJ's and Beers of the World, but their selection is much better than Beers of the World and their staff is very knowledgeable and polite. By far my favorite store!

Aj's and Beers of the World are the big ones aside from Wegmans as mentioned Nathaniel's Corner Store on Mt Hope is pretty good and the 7-11 on Park seems to have some unique beers whenever I'm in there
