Visit the Penny Farthing Liquor Store, in our new location next to Fairways in Athlone Court.

We carry over 700 different types of alcohol in our now 5x bigger and better shop, including beer, wine, and spirits from around the globe. Each product is carefully hand selected based on quality, price, vintage and uniqueness.

Come in and talk to our knowledgeable and friendly staff about beer and wine pairings for dinner parties or casual gatherings. We are open seven days a week, including Sundays and Holidays.

Cold Beer & Wine

Wines

We are carrying wine from all of the major wine countries: France, Italy, Spain, Portugal, Germany, South Africa, Argentina, Chile, New Zealand, Australia, United States, and Canada. We have many BC VQA wines and are starting to get some rare/hard to find BC non-VQA wines. (La Vieux Pin, La Stella, Joie, Kettle Valley, Laughing Stock and Burrowing Owl.) We do currently carry some wines from Vancouver Island but not enough to have thier own section... YET. Organic wine will also have its own section too!

We have an 88pts+ Wine Room and an 18 ft long temperature controlled wine room that will be very user friendly. We will be arranging the wines from driest to sweetest so anyone can pick out a wine for themselves.

Beer & Cider

Our Beer Selection is EXTENSIVE! We have all of the major national brands as well as a large selection of import beers. We will be carrying a decent sized selection of single beers from around the world (once space becomes available) As for local beer we carry Driftwood, Phillips, Vancouver Island Brewery, Lighthouse, Spinnakkers, Swan's and Fat Cat (Nanaimo).

Whiskey

We have whiskys from all corners of the globe in our "Whiskys of the World" section. Canadian Whisky, Irish Whiskey, Scotch Whisky, American Bourbon, and even Whisky's from Japan and India. Our Single Malt Scotch selection will forever be growing as we track down and bring in obscure and hard to find whisky's from around the world. Right now we have over 50 different single malt scotches and that number is soon to be 100 in the coming weeks.
