Champane's describes its knowledgeable staff as "partly clairvoyant," able to discern what a shopper desires with just a few, adroit questions. It's a trait no doubt appreciated by customers overwhelmed by the store's massive selection of Michigan-made brews and little-known craft beers. And that's not even mentioning the huge liquor selection, competitive prices, rotating specials and frequent beer tastings.
