Special Beverage Warehouse Growler Bar tapping of Good Measure Better Late Than Never… $5 pints!  $10/32oz & $20/64oz growler fills while they last.

“Better Late Than Never”
Our first American IPA! We choose to go a different route with is one. The hopping regiment is unique on this one, as we add no hops until the end of the boil. A theoretical 5 IBUs, what this beer lacks in bitterness it makes up for in flavor and aroma. A simple malt bill of Vienna, Wheat and 2-row with a touch of oats allows the hops to come through. Hopped heavily with Centennial, Columbus and Citra.

15 case Burlington Beer Co.  drop – Bring Forth the Mollusk (4.7%) Applewood Smoked Oyster Porter

Bring Forth the Mollusk is a collaboration w/ Proclamation Brewing Co. from Rhode Island. Brewed with Applewood smoked malt and Rhode Island Oysters. We added the whole oysters to the boil for all the flavor of the oysters to be absorbed into the beer. The salty, mineral, and brine-y flavors of the oyster pair perfectly with the smoked malt flavors.

Also… we will be accepting non-perishable, non-expired food donations all month for the food shelf!

Prices do not include tax or refundable growler deposit.

The Beverage Warehouse
and
Vermont Wine Merchants
present…

~ Wines Around Winooski Tasting ~

Friday, November 4, 2016

4:00 – 6:00 pm

The restaurants and bars of our beloved Winooski pour fantastic wines…now you can taste some of the best of them before you even go out for dinner or drinks! We’re pleased to partner with Vermont Wine Merchants to present six wines poured around Winooski. Salud!

Mistinguett Brut Cava

  • POURED AT: Waterworks, Mule Bar
  • REGION: The Cava region of Spain
  • TASTING NOTES:
    Light straw color with greenish tints. Aromas are a mixture of fruit (melon, apple and banana) and the result of fermentation (toasted notes). This bubbly is harmonious and appetizing in the mouth, with a light touch of acidity. It has a classic fruity finish, with a rounded and elegant aftertaste.
  • PRICE: Currently on sale for $9.99 (regularly $11.99)

Fire Road Sauvignon Blanc

  • POURED AT: Oak45
  • REGION: Marlborough, New Zealand
  • TASTING NOTES:
    Fire Road greets your nose with the grassy, herbal notes that are typical of the best New Zealand sauvignon blancs. The smooth and juicy mango, lime and melon flavors in this white are crisp and bold, with a refreshing finish.
  • PRICE: $14.99

Simple Life Pinot Noir

  • POURED AT: Waterworks
  • REGION: Sonoma, California
  • TASTING NOTES:
    The 2014 Simple Life Pinot Noir has aromas of luscious cherries, nutmeg and savory herbs which bring the wine to life. Bright flavors of cranberry and ripe plum intermingle with sage and warm baking spices. Notes of vanilla from 100% French oak aging provide a lovely background for the complex and supple tannins. This wine has perfect balance between its dark fruit character and lively acidity, which makes it an easy pairing for a variety of foods. Try pairing with grilled salmon and green beans, pork loin spiced with oregano, or creamy polenta with wild mushrooms.
  • PRICE: Currently on sale for $9.99 (regularly $12.99)

Cantine Del Indie Nero D’Avola

  • POURED AT: Mule Bar
  • REGION: Sicily, Italy
  • TASTING NOTES:
    Silky and lush, this wine has a mouthful of dark berries with a perfectly bright and balanced finish. This certified organic wine is a blend of 70% Nero D’Avola and 30% Syrah. A gorgeous steal of a wine for the price!
  • PRICE: $13.99

Château Beauséjour “Pentimento”

  • POURED AT: Misery Loves Company
  • REGION: Montagne-Saint-Emilion, France
  • TASTING NOTES:
    Michele D’Aprix and Pierre Bernault make a selection from the Château Beauséjour vineyard each year for this wine, which illustrates on its front label the soil’s profile in its molecular formula: Montmorillonite Clay and Limestone. The winery uses organic practices, manual harvest, and fermentation via natural yeast. Pentimento is unfined and unfiltered. A blend of 75% Merlot and 25% Cabernet Franc, this wine is full-bodied and leans to the dry side. With pleasing, firm notes of black cherry and currant both on the nose and in the mouth, and just enough spice, this wine is a statement that stands on its own!
  • PRICE: $24.99

Nik Weis Selections “Urban” Riesling

  • POURED AT: Oak45
  • REGION: Mosel, Germany
  • TASTING NOTES:
    Urban offers true Mosel style at an affordable price in a striking package. Blossomy perfume wafts throughout this squeaky fresh off-dry riesling. Tart tangerine and punchy yellow peach and mango flavors are vibrant and crisp. This is a straightforward yet balanced wine with an elegant mouthfeel and good minerality, that finishes off-dry. Perfect for taking to dinner as a host/hostess gift, as it will pair well with almost any meal!
  • PRICE: $10.99 (regularly $12.99)
