I really like the Great Lakes offerings as well. I've also had some of the Side Launch ones too. Actually have one in the fridge at home.

The second one is a limited release from the brewery in my town. It's a 1.9L growler. Had some while I was there on Wednesday so decided it would be my Canada Day beer!

which wineries in Napa and Sonoma did you like best?
heading there soon

[92redragtop]

which wineries in Napa and Sonoma did you like best?
heading there soon

Are you heading there on a wine related vacation or is the area a stop-over while you're there? There are so many wineries out there it's hard to pick and my stops, while enjoyable, doesn't capture all the top ones. Also depends on whether you're there for the wine only or combo of wine/setting.

Most of the Napa wineries have tasting fees between US$25 to US$150 (some are wine tasting only or combo wine tasting/tour) and many of the "smaller" wineries require reservations ahead of time (even for a tasting). Stag's Leap in Napa had a US$45 tasting fee for an estate flight of wines including from $200 to $300 bottles. Luna had a nice patio for tasting/enjoying a glass as well. Sterling is worth a visit also with good wines. Other notables included Joseph Phelps, Duckhorn, Irony, and Black Stallion wineries. Castello di Amorosa was a cool spot with a re-created Italian castle and great views although the wine is just ok. The Napa wineries seemed to have a 2 bottle purchase for them to waive the tasting fee.

We actually preferred the Sonoma and Paso Robles wineries since they are smaller, more intimate, many are family-owned, and less feeling of a "production environment" for tastings. Tastings were either free or in the $10 to $25 range and the ones we went to only had a 1 bottle purchase to have the tasting fee waived. Ridge winery was a nice spot and they took their time, so did Alexander Valley which offered a free tour with barrel tasting in their large wine cave. Woodenhead in Sonoma has a nice spot overlooking the Russian River Valley area although their wines were not as nice as Ridge or Alexander. Next time we will focus more time in Sonoma and Paso Robles and skip Napa (Napa wines are generally "bigger" and require longer cellaring for maturing anyway).

We only intended to bring back 2 bottles each (in our suitcases using 4 inch mailing tubes) but you can see we did not stick to that and had to purchase a Wine Check bag to bring our purchases back on the plane (as checked luggage).

Make sure you book your wine tasting reservations at the Napa wineries in advance (where reservations are required) since we did not and could not get last minute reservations at some wineries.

[01CobraVert]

[92redragtop]

No, we lucked out with a generous customs officer who let us through. Thought we'd be in for a big bill with a 7-bottle overage but we got waived through. We ended up buying one of these at Mohsin Vineyards to bring everything back safely.

Higher Learning through beer:

This weekend stopped in at the Parson's Brewery and picked up a couple of "Westy's", and tried a new beer "Marysburgh Vortex", American Double IPA (8.5%). While I was "sampling" the beer they gave me the story of the "Vortex".

http://postmediaottawacitizen2.files.wordpress.com/2015/01/map-showing-the-marysburgh-vortex-marysburgh-vortex-column.jpg


The Marysburgh Vortex is an area of eastern Lake Ontario with a history of shipwrecks during the age of sail and steam that has encouraged legends, superstitions and comparisons to the Bermuda Triangle. The name describes an area whose three corners are Wolfe Island (Ontario), Mexico Bay near Oswego, NY, and Point Petre in Prince Edward County. Although many legends suggest mysterious circumstances for the sinkings, historical writers have attributed the area's record of shipping disasters to conventional maritime hazards such as bad weather, shifting cargoes, fires, submerged reefs exposed during periods of low water levels, and compass errors due to natural geomagnetic anomalies.
Point Petre is where they launched the Avro Arrow models from and tested the Iroquois engines.

Rise of the Planet of the APAs (6.0% ABV) 36 IBU (American Pale Ale)
Holy Trinity IPA (7.2% ABV) 45 IBU (American IPA)

Just had a pre-diner Holy Trinity. Tasty!

[CDNfyrfytr]

Ya, it’s not hoppy enough for me, but I had to drive home and didn’t want a high abv beer. I did get their ipa (9% ABV) 70 IBU and a Belgian quad at 10%🤪 too.

My in laws live in Tiverton and we’re up here for New Years. We went up there with my sister in law and her husband for lunch. Cool little spot on the main corner in an old hotel. Good scratch made food as well. Where is the cottage?



Couldn’t find any yet around here or Niagara so I got some Karma Citra instead.

Looks interesting, is it like a Baileys liqueur?

Sort of. It’s a whiskey based cream using real cream. Also made in my town. [emoji6] Forty Creek also makes one. I like this one more though. It’s also good in coffee just as Bailey’s would be.

9.1% ,! Never tried a beer above 7 %, starts to taste too much like alcohol for me.

Had a 11% before... it was pretty brutal.


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Got a few IPAs and Double IPAs in around the 8% range, but this one is up there at 9.1%.
But it's not like in the days of Maximum Ice where it was bad beer with high alcohol. This beer is hoppy and smooth. Much like Boneshacker, but higher %.
Definitely a 1 beer limit.

They just have the one brew right now (available in a few LCBO locations) but are planning to add others later. I was speaking with the owner at Caledon Day last weekend where they had a tent about their farm, growing their own hops, and also asked him if he'd be interested in trying a blood orange ale (had it in a brewhouse outside Yosemite National Park last summer and it was good - haven't seen it elsewhere yet).

[CDNfyrfytr]

Maybe I’ll have to take a cruise up there then. A few American breweries have blood orange ipas. Can’t say that I’ve had one though. I’ll be sure to pick one up next trip over the border. Do you remember the name of the brew house?

That looks interesting, what other whisky’s do you like as a competitor. I’m not a single malt snob but most of mine are single.

- give this a try you may like it ,mind you it’s not intended to the “ whisky purist”
Usually single is the holy grail of whisky.
I like Chivas 18 yr too

- Direct competitor ? Single? Hmmm hard to say - this blended is different but I like that it seemed smoother, well rounded, balanced?- yes some blended taste like crap.
I would say in my limited drinking Glenfiddich.

If blended Johnny Walker Blue,
even J Black .

After awhile it just becomes “ Fire Water” anyway lol .


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

[newbiestangowner]

After watching a Christopher Hitchens vid where he said there only needs to be one scotch, Johnny Walker Black, I went out and grabbed a bottle. So far it’s the only statement of his I disagree with.

Not. JW fan.

I have tried a few blends I like. Monkey Shoulder comes to mind. I also have a couple of Japanese blends that i like from Nikka.

I may just wait for a whiskey tasting somewhere before committing to a bottle.

If you could attend one of those that would be great idea especially if looking for one of the more expensive bottles.
I agree with you on JW Black not really a fan. I’ve bought Black label but I have a buddy that comes over and he doesn’t discriminate lol.

Monkey Shoulder I think is same ( Grant and Son's ) make Glenfiddich
I was looking at that Nikka - I may buy that next.

“I” don’t think so, but I’ve been sticking with IPAs almost exclusively lately, so my palette might be skewed towards the hoppy.
I’ve tried a few other brews from Flying Monkey (Barrie) and have liked them. Hoptical Illusion Almost Pale Ale, and Smashbomb Atomic American IPA.

Never have been one for the ciders, but worth a try. Cool delivery van they have on their website.

To be honest I am starting to feel overwhelmed with the choices of Craft Brews etc., as I want to see them all thrive. My liver just couldn't stand the taste testing I could put it through.

Yes, Vermont. They only distribute within 25 miles of the brewery and usually sell out the same day they deliver. We were staying in Lake Placid so I drove over (took the ferry) to Burlington, Vermont on the day of the delivery and picked some up fresh. Fantastic beers both of them.

Just back from a 7 day vacation and the local supermarket was selling 12 San Miguel for 6.99 euros. Not bad for the beach. Didn't find any craft brewers, lots of British beer, but suspect this is due to the number of UK tourists.

Stopped in recently when we were in the area with a friend who is more of a beer drinker (than wine) and the tasting board was quite extensive (12 different brews).

Also stopped in at Lock Street Brewing Company for tasting and dinner - they have a cool back yard patio with live music in the afternoon/evening.

Yes I’ve been to Lock Street as well. The food is delicious. I’ve yet to go to the back patio. Looks nice though.

You're not kidding when you said "backyard". Looks like a house party!

This was earlier in the afternoon before we got there (we were off in the far right corner because Rusty is a crazy dog...lol!). The band was Theatre Crisp.

Just cracked my last bottle of “no boats on Sunday” cider.

Ran threw thorn hey last weekend when out with the wife. Grabbed some of there special addition cranberry. And blood orange. Ciders.

If any one is up in the Huron country area you have to check out my buddy’s place

Bad Apple Brew.

Does beers and I always love his cyserwizen. This years batch was a local strawberry apple cider mixed with his beer. Fantastic on a hot day

Picked up some Bancroft Brewing co. Prospectors Ale and Black Quartz. The Black quartz has some nuts brewed with it, very interesting dark ale.
Spearhead in Kingston makes the Sam Roberts ale, which I wish I could get locally.

I think it's just the lighting - was a little darker than the Saison Davenport above. I'm not a big fan of IPAs but this one was pretty tasty and was hop forward but not in a way to turn me off. I'd get it again.

More bounty from the county. Was the last weekend up at the cottage, so picked up some winter supplies. Went to County Cider for a case, then to Parsons for some Westy, and finally, we tried a new place: Prince Eddy. Picked up some Treppenwitz, Dawn Patrol, and Haze Brigade.

Both the gose beers are lemony, and obviously the raspberry one taste like raspberry. Pretty mild at 3.5%. A bit too fruity for my liking, but my wife loved them. The raspberry one tastes like a cooler. The Haze Brigade is a nicely hopped IPA, more my style.

Currently sitting down with a Nickel Brook Wicked Awesome IPA

They do not. It's about one of the only GLB brews that they don't carry.

GLB is a PITA to get to from here too, but I was at Sherway Gardens yesterday on business so I popped by.
They had lots in the store, but they sell out of Thrust quickly.

Anyone know a nice smooth tequila that is available in Mexico. Going there soon and want a smooth one. Thx

[RedSN]

Last time in Mexico we got a couple of bottles of Revolucion.
By no means am i a tequila aficionado, but I quite liked this one.
