This place is my prison. Most stores have a few dozen varieties of beer and after 10-15 minutes I leave confident that I have made the right selection. However, in this little slice of hell they have hundreds of beers, keeping me paralyzed for hours or even days. Why? Because when you visit the Pint youre not just buying beer, youre drinking beer, talking about beer, and scanning the coolers for that perfect beer that wont be there tomorrow. Dont like beer? They have thought of that and have a huge cider selection as well.

Best bottle shop ever, Barry and the other rj are totes cool, Steve is short but loves what he does always packed full of useful information, Gary has the best taste in music and can always tell when hes working, and Justin, well hes Justin! He does great magic if you egg him on enough, I hope this place stays here forever and Ill be bringing everyone I know here its the best!

Terrific spot to grab some of the best beer PNW and elsewhere has to offer! Friendly, knowledgeable staff will know what will fit your fancy, whether its a bottle/can in their endless fridge or a pour from their ever-rotating 10 taps. Barry, the owner, is a true, respected connoisseur and we are fortunate to call this place local.

You wont find the selection like you will in Total Wine but what this place lacks in choices it more than makes up for in customer service and ambiance. All selections are hand picked so you wont have to worry about your choice being a dud. I definitely will be coming back to pick up some more beers in the near future.

Best selection of beers and they have the biggest selection of Sour beer. Sour beer is amazing and doesnt taste like your normal, bitter alcohol. So if youre stuck drinking ciders, and want to try something new, come here and ask someone about it. theyre super knowledgeable and friendly.

This place is the best. The people inside are very helpful, welcoming, and knowledgeable. There is a wide selection of beers here, from Rainier to that weird little micro brew, there is something here for everyone. I highly recommend you try this place out!

At Pint Defiance youll find helpful, knowledgeable staff who are happy to talk about their vast selection of brews, both in the cold case and on tap. Get a growler and ask to try a few before topping it off with what suits you. I love this place!

Walk in Point Defiance, then drink in Pint Defiance. Tacoma rocks, as does Barry & Renee, RJ and crew. Only passionate experts create such tap lists and curate such special bottles, from your favorite IPA to hard to find gueuze.

The best beer store hands down. Drink beer while you shop for beer. Great event nights like the brewers nights. Knowledgeable staff. Bring your own food. The Thai place next door will deliver food here, while you enjoy your beer

Everyone that works here loves their job... The on taps are always changing... The coolers have amazing, hard to find brews... Come here every chance you get and bring your own food because they dont serve any! =)

A pretty good place and in comparison to what else Tacoma has to offer well worth the trip. So if youre stuck in this area and looking for a decent place to grab a beer now and some for later definitely stop here.

Fantastic beer selection (both on tap and in the coolers), great staff, and just all-around good place. If youre going to be here for a while, definitely order some food at Royal Thai next door (theyll deliver!)

Great beer and ciders accompanied by great servers and a great owner. The customers are also a great group. The people here have taken the time to foster a great environment for introduction into craft beers.

Great bottle selection and rotating taps. Staff that knows their beer ( and cider) and can tell you about it. No TVs means you can focus on the beer and conversation. This is a new world public house.

The beer selection is incredible but what really sets this place apart is the staff. Theyre knowledgeable and friendly. Youll feel at home and might even learn a thing or two about beer. Cheers!

Lots of places in the country wish they had this kind of place to get any manner of beer in can, bottle, bomber, or growler. Thanks to the management for the innovation and continued quality

Thoughtful curation of taps and a great selection of bottles. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable, go a few times they will be calling you by name. No TVs, which is a good thing!
