First of all, they've got a full line-up of snacks, drinks, and an ice cream cooler. Okay, that's really all I got. Apparently, it's illegal to sell things like potato chips and ice cream at Connecticut package stores. So, hop over the border and see what freedom is like. The parking area isn't the biggest, but it's right across the street from the Skybox, which has a huge parking lot. My system is to park at the bar, walk over to Oak 'n Keg for supplies, throw them in my car, then belly up to the bar. It's in a great location for alcohol hobbyists, has average prices, and an okay selection. It's worth a stop.

The staff has always been friendly, and the store is very clean. They don't have a huge selection here, but they have a nice variety for such a small area. The store is really clean, and not cramped in the least. I love the beer coolers. They're all wood-trimmed, and are unlike anything I've seen anywhere else. They have a real vintage look...which probably means they are vintage. If you're heading out to the lake, and you need some beer, Saunders is worth checking out.
