Oddly enough, I've even had the town of Wolcott deny some of my bottle returns at their redemption center. Reason being the bottles were from Germany and the writing on my bottles weren't in "American". That was my plan, you see. To get bottles from The European Union and bankrupt America five cents at a time. Crazy Bruce's has never given any such issue so they get my business from time to time. They run excellent specials on Seasonal beer items that have just past the season. They also have a really good selection of local beers from the area. There specials and customer service make it worth the 15-20 minute drive for me.

There are sooooo many interesting spirits (specifically whiskies) out there and my goal is to catch em all! So whenever I'm in a new city I can't keep myself from stopping in to search for that unicorn. While I don't always find one, it's still fun to see those that are hard to find in my hometown readily available on the shelf elsewhere. Maximum is a well organized, large and easily explored store. I was able to see a few bottles I hadn't and after talking to the staff, learned they're not in the business of hiding those allocated items either. Staff wasn't tremendously knowledgeable, but I didn't need any advice and it just helped me get in and out faster because I didn't spend time talking to them! They sell all the requisite mixers and snacks, plus they have a cheese counter with some tasty stuff! Great place to shop for sure!

I've been friends with him ever since. Marvin has spent his life collecting special wines, beers and spirits. If you are talking with him and he rubs his hands together and says, "Hold on a minute.", then he heads down into the cellar, you will be offered something so very special. I've been in CA for 35 years now and I did see him a couple times along the way. He is in my thoughts and memories and, if I'm in CT, it's always worth a visit to see my good friend, Marvin!
