Jewel Osco - Munster

I think this store is located south of Ridge Rd., not north. It’s a grocery superstore but not nearly as big as a WalMart superstore. They carry several local beers. Priced fairly reasonable but check on the date it was released. Saw several beers that were past their prime. I gave them a "5" on service simply because there were employees at the registers.

Crazy staff. More wine then beer.

By golly, when grocery shopping the day before DarkLord Day 2010, I went into Jewel-Osco. Jewel Osco is the same corporation that does Acme on the east coast and Albertsons on the west coast. Anyway, I went to their beer section, and circled around twice looking for a cold case of beer. Little did I know, in Indiana, you can’t sell cold soda (pop) and cold beer in the same store, so the beer was there but hot, on the shelf. When I found the beer shelf I was mighty surprised at seeing the six pack lineup of Three Floyds, a Summer mix pack of Goose Island and Uplands IPA. As I finished up my shopping, I even saw a nice wall display promoting "Local Craft Beer", all decked out with 3 Floyds.
