Can I browse the Windows App Store outside of Windows 8?

Is there a way for me to access the Windows 8 store at http://apps.microsoft.com/ from Windows 7? I can get a direct link to an application's entry in Windows Store, but I cannot browse the store.

Going to http://apps.microsoft.com/ results in 

403 - Forbidden: Access is denied.
