I have purchased beer and the like here for years. Never again. I went in on Saturday to pick up a bag of ice and a six pack of Octoberfest beer for the weekend. Everything went as normal until I went to check out, the employee at the register insisted on scanning in my drivers License in to their register system as some kind of age verification. I politley offered to show them my drivers license, but was not comfortable with them scanning in to there register system. The employee then refused to do buisness with me. I politley asked to speak to a manager who came out of the beer cave annoyed at having to do his job. I asked why this isn't posted anywhere that this is required for each se. I also explained that I work in IT and having paid extra for an enhanced ID, was not comfortable having my information scanned in to an unknown and potentially unsecured computer system. (Personally I don't like the idea of my purchases being tracked either, which is what this boils down to) I also explained that I ask every time I get my license renewed and there is no documentation at the DMV informing consumers as to what is on the barcodes on the ID and if I can be used by retailers. He scoffed at me saying, that me being in IT should know its safe and walked away. I then left and found another establishment to do buisness with. Whatever happened to the customer is always right?

The staff is knowledgeable and the selection is good. Prices are comparable to most other liquor stores in the area. Good craft beer selection with a lot of local choices!

It's okay, went in real quick since I had to grab a few things at cub to buy a bottle of wine that I usually get from total wine. I wasn't expecting that the prices be the same, but thr fact that the price for a single bottle was 30 percent more expensive here than there gave me pause. I bought it because I was in a hurry but will probably drive to Total Wine to do my purchasing in the future.
