Island Liquor and Grocery

island SIgn says: «everyone show id, no exceptions»
not me. wasn’t even asked. must be my natural grays and whites. no «bigen, japanese hair colouring», added.
shelves didn’t have many microbrews, no big bittles, just a few six packs, all single 16 oz are priced. 1.50ish. bruthas and sistas can get a buzz on here on the cheap.
pour: st ides malt liquor, (16oz, 8.2%, 1.50)
–seriously strong brew with a kerosene tasting back.
–not for the timid. malt with an altitude 3 stars
on draught:
–4 stars for the relatively low pricing in a ghetto envrionment
–not much diversity in brews. just come for the mainstream stuff.
–hard liquor avallable, not sure of pricing.

I LOOOVE this store!
The owner, a 70 year old African American man, is so friendly and welcoming.
He plays GREAT soul music and always cuts me a little deal!
SO different than the usual liquor stores these days…
