Gold Eagle Wine and Spirits — Local services in Libertyville

Excellent wine selection. Excellent Bourbon, Whiskey, and Single Malt Scotch selection. Excellent nice beer selection

You know what's not excellent? The grumpy old men, whom I presume are owners or at the very least senior management. I'm a regular there and when I ask them questions the react like I just stuck a knife into the gut. God forbid "Customer service" is part of your job description.

Oh, and on days when special beer releases like Bourbon County Stout or Kentucky Breakfast Stout are in season, just forget about asking anything about it. You'll get the stink eye and then get to hear how much of a burden it is to sell these products. "Too many phone calls, too many inquiries. It's total pain in the ass to get this stuff."

I was looking for very basic stuff, but the only liquor they have any kind of assortment of is in very small bottles and those bottles are very overpriced. Even the beer is considerably higher priced than even Jewel or Dominick's and you don't even get to pay the price on the sign unless you're a "member". No, your price is actually a couple dollars HIGHER than the price on the sign. Whatever. I'll be happy when this place shuts down so I don't have to look at it on the way home from...
