NHscrapman thanks for refreshing my memory, that's correct as we were heading to a party in Mass. we stopped to get the real stuff. As I recall it would not be as cheap as N. H. state operated liquor store. My memory was it was a fairly large store, with a large selection of alcohol and operated by the state. Been in most of the country and don't recall anyplace else where the state sold the good stuff! That's probably a good way in a small state.
