Now third generation owner, Mitch got his start in the the family business in 1980 at the ripe old age of 13. Back then his duties included the ultra exciting sorting of beer empties, dusting the wine bottles and of course, taking out the garbage. "My father stressed the importance of  learning every aspect of  the business, including the less glamorous ones.", says Mitch. In the late 1980's Mitch was given the chance to test his marketing/merchandizing skills when he helped expand the stores beer selection. "It was the beginning of the (first) micro beer boom.", reminisces Mitch. "Brands like Pete's Wicked and Sam Adams were just starting to appear." It wasn't long before the beer selections grew from 100 offerings to over 500. "This is when I really started to become fascinated in the flavor profiles and back stories of the products we were selling." "I started traveling to visit breweries, and wineries to learn as much as I possibly could about the products we were selling."

When not preparing for the zombie apocalypse,  Mitch splits his time between the two locations and still takes part in all aspects of the business, even the less glamorous ones.
