I walked in to check out the craft beer selection.

The selection of non-craft beer seemed typical. I wasn't in the market for wine or hard alcohol, but the store was fairly large and it looked like they must have had a decent selection of that.

I think my husband and I have now found a new favorite liquor store. We live off of route 3 so…read morethere's a different one by us, but they just don't have the selection that MK's does. The owner is super nice and friendly, and made excellent suggestions to us. They have wine in there that I've never even heard of, which is a super good and awesome sign. I can't believe we've lived 5 mins down the road from here for the last 2.5 years and never thought to check it out. If you want Scottish or Irish whiskey that you can't find in other places, def come here, chances are they actually have it. I also bought an amazing $80 huge bottle of Kentucky bourbon, and it's one of the best bourbon's I've ever had. If you're in the Rocky Hill/Wethersfield area, you def need to come here, because they have something for everyone.

Now I only asked about wines, but just the amount of variety in wine selection blew me away. Also, I just had the pleasure of having an app bug the menu looks extensive for a brewery. Loving the fact that I can possibly add a bunch of different proteins into solid salad options. I was tempted to to do that but just needed a little fuel before hitting the road. I got the hummus app which doesn't so d like a big deal to make- but let me tell you- there is craft I. This hummus plate. The beet flavor is a delish variation. The nuts and cheese complement it well. It's also a feast for the eyes! See the pic! Service was friendly and attentive I will be sure to bring friends for a nice cocktail. The patio beckons!

But then there's a Pinot Noir that's about $3 than I've seen anywhere else. So, I guess you live and you learn where to go. The selection is good, and they are always in stock. I wish they had a bigger variety of six packs, but they have singles for a customizable 6-pack purchase. I always find something good here, but I don't necessarily open my horizons with the selection or people around to help.

CBM's not my usual spot, but it's always a fun stop. Beverages from near and far can all be found here, by the case, by the nip, by all manner of bottles. The back wall of this big box-sized package store is a refrigerated case, and aisle 1, as of January 2021, is being turned into a second wall of refrigeration. Woot! I haven't been disappointed by the wine recommendations occasionally tucked between price labels, including a recommendation for Sunset Meadow Vineyards. Chris helped me find a couple light but flavorful brews, and pointed them out in the cold case too. Alas, no more New Britain Bev Mart but at least this store, Middletown, and Wallingford are still around, and I think they've got it all.

This is a somewhat of a newer store, they're conveniently located in West Hartford Center, with their own parking lot at the front and the back of the store. The store has a nice layout, with plenty of wine categorized by red, white and rose. There is a good amount of international wines to choose from. I didn't look too much at the wine, I was shopping for hard seltzer. They have plenty of beers from local breweries. Beers can be purchased as a typical package, or you can customize by getting single cans or bottles and creating your own pack. You can find hard liquors, spirits and also, champagne at Tilted Bottles. They have a great selection to pick from of whatever adult beverage you might be looking for.
