Gleeson’s Features Unique, New Products

Now in its fourth business year, Gleeson’s Discount Liquors has become a premiere local retailer. Tom and Mary Jane Gleeson opened the doors of Gleeson’s Discount Liquors on June 11, 2010, in hopes to provide the Cape May County community with excellent customer service and even better prices. Their son Tom Jr. and daughter Megan are actively engaged in the day-to-day operation of the family business and continue to expand the Gleeson’s market and reach.

Gleeson’s strives to offer an increasingly wide selection of wine, liquor, and beer. For customers with special dietary needs, Gleeson’s also carries Red Bridge, New Planet, and Bards gluten-free beers. Gleeson’s now boasts a vast selection of over 160 craft beers including Yards, Dogfish Head, Lagunitas, Southern Tear, and Weyerbacher just to name a few. They also offer a large number of imports from around the world including Peroni, Sapporo, Boddington, and Smithwick.

While world-wide representation remains a priority, the Gleeson family also feels that it is important to support the unique breweries close to home. From Flying Fish from Cherry Hill to the Tuckahoe Brewing Company’s unique brew, you can find your preferred local beer in Gleeson’s cool refrigerators.

In order to expand patrons’ palates, Gleeson’s hosts as many wine, liquor, and beer tastings as possible. The Gleeson family invites the distribution companies to host the tastings themselves in order to ensure that customers receive the best information and guidance in the products they sample. Boston Beer Company, father brewery of Sam Adams, will be hosting a tasting of their famed products at Gleeson’s on July 26th from 4 to 6 PM.

Perfect for a beach day or a summer tailgate, Gleeson’s carry cocktail pouches have been a top seller this past season. These convenient grab and go pouches come in assorted colada, daiquiri, and margarita flavors. Your favorite Mike Hard Lemonade flavors are also now available in Gleeson’s carry pouches.

The Save Me San Francisco line of wines is another exciting new Gleeson’s offering. Inspired by their international travels and encounters when sharing their music, the band Train has created their very own wine company and is proud to present Calling All Angels Chardonnay, Soul Sister Pinot Noir, Drops of Jupiter California Red, California 37 Cabernet Sauvignon, and Hella Fine Merlot. Wine-lovers are also encouraged to check out Gleeson’s collection of Simply Naked unoaked wines. They are all fermented and aged in 100% stainless steel, never seeing the inside of an oak barrel. Simply Naked winemakers therefore take great care in developing wines that are fruit forward, yet balanced and structured.

But what is top-notch wine without a pairing of artisan cheese? Be sure to check out Gleeson’s display of DiBruno Bros. cheese spreads, aged artisan cheeses, spreads, Crostini crackers, and more. Established in 1939 by Italian immigrant brothers Danny and Jo, DiBruno Bros. cheeses are unique treasures of the rich culture of Philadelphia’s 9th Street Italian Market and a true treat for any wine and cheese tasting.

Having noted a huge resurgence in moonshine, the Gleeson family also now carries Firefly Moonshine, from the makers of top selling Firefly Sweet Tea. Available in a number of flavors including Apple Pie, Blackberry, and Peach, Firefly Moonshine is 100.7 proof – just the right number to release the true flavor of raw corn whiskey.

For those who prefer the taste of tequila, Gleeson’s is home to one of the most talked about, new tequila products on the market. Casamigos Tequila, the brainchild of longtime friends George Clooney, Rande Gerber, and Mike Meldman, is the product of many spirit-filled nights. They set out to create the smoothest possible tequila “whose taste didn’t have to be covered up with salt or lime”. Sample their success with the help of Gleeson’s Discount Liquors.

For a taste of the most unique choices, Tom, Mary Jane, Tom Jr., and Megan invite you to make Gleeson’s your liquor store destination.
