| - The selection of spirits was not inspired. I was intrigued by the idea that I could sample some craft beer and get a growler, especially since it was 107°. This turned out not to work so good. The proprietor asked if I was looking for something, and I said no, I was browsing. Which I did. Since I didn't see anything else interesting, I went over and read all the info on the beers on tap. Then I read them again. Since the guy was sitting and laughing with a couple ten feet from me, I figured he'd ask if I wanted something. Nope. Guess they sell enough $35 growlers that they don't have to worry about selling another one to an out-of-towner. Maybe the store is kind of a hobby operation, though it seems like an expensive one.
I should have just butted in to his conversation, but I was feeling kind of Midwestern. I noticed the other day that Total Wines has growlers too, but they have people that ask what you want, and they have quarts as well as half gallons, which is more attractive in some cases. I'd have given these guys three stars on their selection and they could've earned another on the service. Instead, they lost one.
