NEW YORK – Starbucks Corp. said Thursday it is wiping its name from one of its Seattle-area stores and adding alcohol to the menu.

The Seattle-based gourmet coffee chain said it is changing the name of one of its existing stores in its hometown to a name that reflects the neighborhood location. The store will be called 15th Avenue Coffee and Tea. It will open next week and will serve coffee and tea as well as wine and beer.

That's cool.  Nothing worse than having to stop twice on the way home for your stimulants and depressants.

Pretty sure they'll follow the Starbucks pricing model, so my guess is that they'll be selling 12 oz PBR for 8 bucks and glasses of Bones Farm for 12.

It is kind of interesting that they're not willing to put their own name on what is the logical next step for them.

I'm sure we'd all like a handjob right now.
