    Nothing mind blowing - Sculpin, All Day, Lagunitas - mainly larger nationally distributed stuff. No real breaks on pricing. Assuming they chose this location b/c you obviously need a drink after being in that shopping plaza for 5 minutes.

    That's also why we recommend stopping by Night Shift both before and after shopping in that hellish plaza.

    I was also shocked to see beer in there last week.

    FYI there is also a liquor store inside of the Costco there as well. Same rules apply though :astonished:

    The new City Target at Fenway has craft beer too.

    Good grief. I've accidentally been in the wrong lane going into that traffic circle on my way to Night Shift before and it's absolutely atrocious. Just getting turned around again is a 5-10 minute process. Definitely fuels my thirst for Night Shift.

    I feel for anyone that actually goes to that plaza to shop.

    I used to live right down there had to do that traffic circle every day. Don't miss that.

    RE: Craft beer in target. That's cool and a step n the right direction for craft in general. I saw breaded chicken in the freezer isle of my grocery store bragging of being made with a craft pale ale. That made me roll my eyes.

    When I lived in IL about 8yrs ago Targets out there carried beer and booze. So convient. I could get a handle of vodka, advil, underwear, ramen and penicillin

    The Gap Outlet over there is pretty solid and not too picked-over. And.. Longhorn steakhouse and TGI Fridays offer excellent family friendly dining and drinking.

    That traffic circle to get on to Santilli Highway, which is after Santilli Highway connector ( a completely different street) of course, was the worst I've seen in my small time with traffic circles. Maybe a beer containing Lsd and rage could be made and named after it.

    I always dread going to that Best Buy (it's the closest one to me). That's the seventh circle of traffic hell.

    the new target on the wilmington/andover line off 93 has beer/wine/liquor which blew me away when I walked by the aisle. It's like something out of the twilight zone... beer/wine/liquor in a store that isn't a packie. what the hell is happening in this state. </sarcasm>
    It's nice to see our fine state move out of the late 1600's and into the 2010's. Maybe we'll finally catch up with our former state possession Maine with our alcohol sales laws.

    I also think in IL they sell BCBS in Target. Takes Black Friday to a new level. 60 inch flat screen and a case of BCBS.

    Glad to see big box retailers finally getting some more golden tickets (licenses). Drop the price protection laws & maybe consumers can finally stop paying the highest beer prices in the US.

    Would love to see beer on the clearance shelves at Target.
