While doing grocery shopping at our local Publix earlier today, we noticed something different about the beer aisle. Look at the photo above. Do you see what’s different?

If you didn’t here’s a photo taken a little closer to the shelves:

It looks like Publix is making things very easy for people hosting parties for tonight’s Big Game by strategically putting some snacks that need refrigeration, such as popcorn chicken, sausages, and cheese, right by the beer. I thought it was pretty clever.

There are snacks enough for everyone, whether your tastes tend towards what the “macrobreweries” put out…
