Your Neighborhood Bottle Shop
Our wine, beer & spirits shop (liquor store) is OPEN from when we open our doors for the day until we close (9 p.m. for liquor sales in Wisconsin, dontcha know). Stop by to check out our award-winning selection, or order online for curbside. NEW! Check out our Wine Club — we pick 'em out, you pick 'em up each month to enjoy at home.
WINE CLUB @ BKC
We're happy to present the Wine Club @ BKC! We want to help you drink better, both here and at home — a Wine Club membership will include two bottles hand-selected by our experienced Story Hill BKC staff each month so you can do just that.
We’ll feature a variety of New World and Old World wines, hard-to-find wines, and wines from regions and producers that we think you’d like to get to know.
If you’re interested in participating, please complete this Wine Club Membership form — type on the form, download it and send it back to shop@storyhillbkc.com or to our shop at 5100 W. Blue Mound Rd. in Milwaukee, or ask to sign up the next time you’re in at the shop at Story Hill BKC.
Monthly subscription will range from $40 to $45 plus tax for the two hand-selected bottles and benefits. Or secure a 1-year subscription or gift for $480. Release day will be the first Thursday of each month, and we’ll send an email reminder as soon as you can come pick up your wine. Sign up now to get in on the next pickup!
Both bottles each month will be accompanied with tasting notes featuring pairing suggestions and/or recipe ideas, and the chefs of Story Hill BKC will have hand-selected food recommendations to pair with the wines. And if you really enjoy the wines, you’ll be able to reorder the wine at a discount.
GIFT WINE CLUB AS A GIFT!
