    Alien mural
    John O.

    So honestly there isn't much special about this particular gas station architecturally, or what's offered for service or products. Our stop was short and happen to be per chance. The mural with the alien caught my attention where I'm like "ummmm wtf is this?" but then I read that this was the site of the first modern alien abduction story (I don't know what to believe about UFO/aliens. I'm basically agnostic about it, I'm open to the idea but don't really feel strongly about aliens being real. However, I do believe that maybe we have been visited before; please reference 'Chariot of the Gods' by Erich von Däniken, this is why I say the first 'modern' UFO experience) and I was like "oh shit, I know this story!" yet had no clue this occured here in the granite state. There's photocopied articles on presentation boards hanging up on the walls, the bathroom supposedly plastered with articles but was closed at the time of our visit. Government conspiracy to keep the truth from the public???? Probably, more likely, a busted porcelin god. I digress. Whether or not this is a true story, it was kind of cool to visit the site. I would never go out of my way to visit here as there isn't really anything exciting to see. Just trinkets, t-shirts, and gas-station nutrition with the main feature being gas for the car. There are little alien trinkets and t-shirts to say you were at this modest gas station in the White Mountains where this famous abduction took place. My wife got excited with an alien doll with velcro hands. We bought it, it is now her co-pilot secured to her seat. A reminder that this is a weird, curious, wonderful existence we live. Sometimes the greatest finds, are the things you were not looking for.

    A pretty general gas station in most aspects - coffee, snacks, drinks, beer - but you gotta go for the alien appeal. Check out the mural out front commemorating the abduction of Barney and Betty Hill, then go read a bunch of the UFO reports plastered Pepe Silvia style over the walls while you browse the snack aisle. Pick up a notch express alien hoodie if you're so inclined (I did)!

    I recently changed stores to shop at and absolutely love this store and especially the manager…read moreMichele she is overwhelmingly friendly to everyone who enters the store as where most store managers are very grumpy and do as little as possible.. it's so refreshing to actually feel like a welcomed and valued customer.

    This Mobil has a decently clean bathroom, a nice selection of beer and beef jerky, and competitive…read moregas prices to the filling stations nearby. It is also the greatest filling station in the world. Why? Heady Topper is available here on weekends. You can stroll in on Sunday and buy a four-pack of Heady Topper, which I don't believe you can do anywhere else in the world on Sunday. As beer geeks know, The Alchemist's Heady Topper is widely regarded as the best beer you can buy (#1 on Beer Advocate). As beer tourists know, Heady Topper is distributed only on weekdays and only in a short radius from the brewery, which is now closed to the public. You can (legally) buy Heady Topper no farther East than Barre, no farther South than Warren, no farther West than Burlington, and no farther North than Morrisville. Because the beer is highly sought after and delivered only on weekdays, there's generally no place to get cans of it on the Weekend (all of the cases at Hunger Mountain are consumed within hours of delivery on Friday, for example). EXCEPT for this Mobil. They do something I don't believe any other Alchemist vendor does; they split their Thursday shipment up into four parts and make some available every day Thu-Sun. That means if you arrive early enough on Sunday you can buy a heady topper. If you're a working stiff in Boston, you can visit Vermont on the weekend knowing you will come home with four pints of perfect, glorious Heady Topper DIPA. ...If you get there early enough. They open 6 AM. Heady topper in middle fridge in the back on the top. Ask the clerk if you don't see it (especially if you are not tall, because the cans might be all the way in the back of the rack). Limit one four-pack.
