We have a liquor store in Springfield (Illinois) that has a
magnificent selection of both beers and wines. Alas, it's on the south
end of town, and I work on the north end (and live even further
north), a distance of more than 10 miles. From time to time I make a
pilgrimmage.
We have no TJ's (though we have nearly every other upscale and middle
scale chain); the nearest one to me is in St Louis, an hour and a half
from here. The next nearest is Chicago, 3 hours away if you are
willing to push the speed limit some.
