Things I Learned at PC/Market of Choice Last Night

Legal to buy, not-so-legal to drink (on premise).
• You can not drink alcohol on the premises, as they do not have a license. This worked once in the past and worked last night ... until an employee politely informed me otherwise. Which is a shame, because my favorite thing to do before going on a grocery shopping binge at their South Eugene location is to grab some food, grab a bottle of beer, sit by the fire, get all woozy, maybe a little boozy, and then march through the excruciating pain of grocery shopping.
• As Molly noted below, Ninkasi is now bottled. Market of Choice has their Total Domination IPA ($3.99/bottle) and their Tricerahops ($4.39, I think) in a display near the check-out stands.
I scooped one up at lunch when we got sushi. I love their deli.

For starters you would have to purchase the alcohol before consuming it which would make it rather hard to drink it inside the grocery store unless you are drinking it on your way out. Second the grocery store would be liable for everyone driving away from the grocery store so it would be extremely hard to obtain a license to sell alcohol to begin with.
