text: There is nothing and I mean nothing harder than giving a store that sells alcohol less than five stars I am not saying I am an alcoholic but I love vodkannMy favorite TWM is in Springfield VA That store did not mess around It had what you needed how you needed it when you needed it My addiction was sated here each and every time nnAnyway this was my first visit to this store I have slowed down a lot in the years that I acquired the hobby of drinking great beervodkawine so I do not make as many trips or I just grab my favorite beer at Whole Foods et al So I was pretty excited to be walking into one of my favorite placesnnWalked in the door and immediately you are bombarded with bottles everywhere If you were and this was a candy store your heart would stop from the excitement I am not saying alcohol is my candy but this looks like a pattern Sorry So you THINK you have all these choices but you really do not nnThis store has inventory I know they sell a variety of things but it is not as abundant an inventory as it seems I love Chimay They carry it but it is a small selection Their Polish beers were gone but for one sixpack They had not heard of others I asked for three different kinds of bourbon they would heard of one of them One guy that was helping me also had this oddly annoying habit of actually having a microphone to talk into but instead of using that he would walk to the front of the store to ask if they had what I needed So weird nnEveryone was pretty helpful and I finally found what I wanted sort of So I go to check out nnThey do not refrigerate a lot of the beers but seemingly had a solution in a fridge that could cool them down in seven minutes I do not know why I did not do that with my beer while I was looking for bourbon but I just did not I lost track of time and no one mentioned it to me so I was just wandering around and the store closed By the time was up at the register it was about after The manager was visible perturbed nnLet me tell you something Perturbed is what you feel when you are in traffic your dog pees on your floor or your next door neighbor does not return your rake when you need it Perturbed is NOT when a paying customer is standing in your face about to purchase something from your establishment nnI asked him if he would not mind me cooling off my beer in his cooler for a few minutes as I would forgotten to do it Let me tell you this man showed zero restraint in holding back his irritation that I was still in his store after closing AND wanted to stay longer I asked him if there was not someone else in the store still shopping he said yes I asked then if I could just cool the beer down until they got to the front PERFECTLY REASONABLE REQUEST He was so rude that I told him so Seriously YOU ARE RUDE He did not care at all He was trying to get his employees home Welcome to RETAIL rude manager nnI would not go back to this store and spend my money if my life depended on it I am not sure he realizes that everyone sells what he has elsewhere I am sad though I have always always loved this place Just a little patience and kindness would have given them a loyal customer forever Boo
