The Beers!!
Beltway Brewing "Lockerism" 4 pack 16 oz $19.99
ABV:6.8%
In collaboration with Craig Laughlin for the benefit of The Laughlin Family Foundation, we ripped a sizzling snap shot with some serious sauce to put the biscuit in the basket! This opulently hopped hazy IPA is juicy with a face wash of tropical and citrus zest flavors thanks to a double dry hop of Citra and Strata.
Aslin "Double Purple Starfish" DIPA, 4 pack 16 oz $21.99
For this DIPA they took their Starfish recipe and made it twice as nice. Typically, Citra & Galaxy hold down the hops to give big juicy flavors of plump candied orange. In this new twist, we’ve substituted a portion of Mosaic hops to give it a more dimensional tropical fruit flavor with additional blueberry notes!
Scaldis "Noel" , 750mL $18.99
12% ABV
The Scaldis Noël is brewed in limited volumes but has already achieved the status of a classic beer for the end-of-year celebrations. The Scaldis Noel is amber is color with aromas arranging from banana and pineapple to caramel and dried fruit. Full rounded and beautifully dense. A slightly bitter taste with an underlying sweetness, yielding to aromas of caramel and praline and awards the drinker with a satisfyingly long finish.
The Wines!!
Zuccardi Familia Torrontes $16.99
It sports an intense yellow greenish color with a delicate and unique nose, full of white flowers such as roses and citrus blossom. Also, it reveals notes of mature white fruits and citrus zest. The wine is well structured with a lively acidity but remains centered around the aromatic intensity and delicate finish.
This wine is great as aperitif and a perfect match for Asian food, fish dishes and fresh salads.
Catena Semillon Chenin"White Clay" $23.99
92 Points - James Suckling!
"This has aromas of sliced apples, lemons, white pears, blanched almonds, yoghurt and chalk. It’s medium-to full-bodied with a round, creamy and layered palate. Excellent concentration and focus. Mineral finish. Semillon and chenin blanc. Sustainable.”
Winery notes: deeply aromatic with expressive citrus and peach, minerality, and a rich finish.
Catena Appelation Malbec "Paraje Altamira" $29.99
94 Points - James Suckling!
"So much orange peel to the dark berries and ripe fruit. But never over the top. Medium-to full-bodied with medium-round tannins and a savory finish. Just a hint of chocolate and walnut. Nice subtlety to the depth.”
Winery notes: Violet aromas, Mineral, concentrated and smooth - shallow alluvial gravelly soils, low yields.
Catena Appelation Malbec "Lunlunta" $29.99
93 Points - Wine Advocate!
"The pale and delicious 2019 Appellation Lunlunta Malbec is expressive and floral and really thriving in this cool vintage. This is fresh and ethereal, a lot fresher than the traditional Malbecs from the zone. It's juicy with velvety tannins and vibrant acidity.”
Winery notes: Old Vine Malbec, ripe flavors, silky tannins
Catena San Carlos Cabernet Franc $23.99
93 Points - Wine Advocate!
Super elegant, fresh, varietal, nuanced and complex. A wine like this often costs more money than the price point of the appellation range, but it feels like a bargain anyway. Demonstrates precision and symmetry while remaining vibrant and lively, velvety and focused.
