365 View

I made my first foray into the first Whole Foods 365 store in Silver Lake recently but due to an extremely long check-out line. I mean gargantuan, I did not pick up any beer but I came away impressed by the price and even the limited (in comparison to the Glendale and Pasadena stores) selection of beers. I might make a stop for a draft first though since on a Sunday night the shelves were a little sparse in spots.

Beer 365

I am not sure how another grocery store will work out in Los Angeles. We seem well stocked with stores and the last few that attempted to penetrate the market crashed and burned (remember Fresh & Easy?). So I have been skeptical about the new sibling of Whole Foods, 365.

But then I saw this blurb on one of the many Foodie sites I peruse on Facebook….

Beer Bar? Which made me remember a sign in my local Glendale Whole Foods. A sign for an alcohol permit. Stores want people to stay inside and shop more and if I had a beer that liked on tap, I just might look for a sixer to go.

The bigger question though is, when will there be a BeerBot?
