WHITE
2017 Lancyre Roussanne....$19.99
Crushed stone, pineapple and tangerine notes mingle easily on the nose of the 2017 Val de Montferrand Roussanne. This is pleasantly crisp and fresh, with tropical notes up front but zesty citrus on the finish, and in between there's a pleasantly plump, medium-bodied wine with immense appeal.
Rated 90/100 Wine Advocate

2016 Laurent Habrard Crozes Hermitage Blanc...$19.99
Lowest price on Wine-Searcher is $28.99
Aged seven months in stainless steel, the 2016 Crozes Hermitage Blanc is 90% Marsanne and 10% Roussanne. It offers decent complexity, with hints of honey, truffle and marshmallow coming together in a medium to full-bodied wine with a silky mouthfeel and a long finish.
Rated 90/100 The Wine Advocate

2018 Regueiro Alvarinho Reserva...$19.99
From the sub-region of Monção and Melgaço, this wine has perfumed fragrant fruitiness with hints of a creamy texture. It is rich and full in the mouth, touched by spice and pepper and likely to age for a while. It will be ready to drink from early 2020.
Rated 91/100 Wine Enthusiast Magazine


RED
2016 Lilac Wine Cotes du Roussillon Villages...$19.99
Living up to its name, the 2016 Lilac Wine is floral and surprisingly delicate for a wine that tips the scales at 15% alcohol. A blend of Carignan, Grenache and Syrah, it sees only larger-format wood, leaving the purity of its mixed-berry and spice elements unvarnished by oak. It's a terrific bargain that should drink well for several more years.

2016 Ridolfi Rocchetto Chianti DOCG...$15.99
Sangiovese 75%, Merlot 15%, Colorino 10%
This wine seriously over delivers for the month and is the perfect embodiment of the great 2016 vintage.
Fruity and simple with dried cherry and lemon character. Good core of fruit in the center. Bright finish. 

Rated 90/100 James Suckling


2017 Chateau de Lancyre Pic Saint Loup Coste d'Aleyrac...$19.99
50% Syrah, 40% Grenache, 10% Carignan.
Blackberries, ground pepper, dried earth and peppered meat notes all dominate the 2017 Pic Saint Loup Coste D'Aleyrac, a ripe, rounded, complex, almost Northern Rhône-like red to drink over the coming 7-8 years. The blend is 50% Syrah, 40% Grenache, and 10% Carignan, brought up all in tank.
Rated 92/100 Jeb Dunnuck

It's a Saison, soooo...taste and you shall see.

Founders Green Zebra Watermelon Gose

Founders Green Zebra Watermelon Gose...$8.9 / 6pk cans
ABV: 4.6%
Subtly sour and a little sweet, this ale is a refreshing take on a nearly extinct German style, gose. Watermelon is the highlight of this lightly-hopped treat and gives it a hint of satisfying juiciness. The soft mouthfeel and dry finish comes courtesy of the addition of sea salt, a traditional gose ingredient.
Green Zebra was initially released as our Artist Series beer in 2017.

Stone Tiki Escape

Stone Tiki Escape....$21.99 / 12pk mixed box

Includes 4 different beers

Stone Tiki Escape IPA
While this beer is not a fruit-added IPA, our beloved hops can achieve sublime levels of fruity flavor and aroma all on their own. This beer combines the tropical, complex and much-loved Mosaic hops with an intriguing newcomer, Sabro, and its notes of stone fruit & coconut. This is a beer for your evening’s staycation - a refreshing new perspective on something familiar.


Stone Buenaveza Salt & Lime Lager
In 1996, Stone Brewing was founded in San Diego County, just minutes from the border. Since then, influence from our southern neighbors has enriched and inspired us on our undying mission to brew bold, flavorful beers. One such inspiration is Stone Xocoveza, our imperial stout originally released in 2014 to bring the rich, complex flavors of Mexican hot chocolate to beer. It’s with mucho gusto that we now follow with our take on a classic lager that is similarly inspired (and tasty) - Stone Buenaveza Salt & Lime Lager.


Stone Tangerine Express Hazy IPA
Imagine the tropical haze of a lazy afternoon- into-evening. Your official duties for the day have been to maybe take a hike to a secluded waterfall, perhaps grill something, definitely chill with plenty of sand between your toes…and crack a phenomenal beer to complete the experience. Check, check, check again and…pfffft…check.
WELCOME TO OUR VACATION TRANSPORTATION EXPRESS!
This ain’t no just-add-juice approach. This one is for adults. We use bountiful whole tangerine purée, which brings pithy, crisp bitterness to the citrus flavor. In addition to the complexities of the tangerine — the likes of which you can only get by using the whole fruit — we judiciously employ just a hint of whole pineapple for a backnote (you’d likely not even pick it out of the mix if we didn’t tell you it was there). We’re not looking for a sweet concoction to appease the “I want my beer to taste like fruit juice” crowd. This is Stone. We like our IPAs to taste like IPAs. Big, bold and not for kids.

Stone Scorpion Bowl IPA
To create a recipe so tropical and fruity without the addition of fruit was no feat our team of brewers would leave up to the gods. They took floral and citrus notes from Mosaic, Loral and Mandarina Bavaria hops to dish up a mouthwatering fruit punch to the palate. Get deserted on your own island or share with others. One thing is for sure: there is no need to light this one. It is already on fire.

4 Hands Snake Oil IPA

4 Hands Snake Oil IPA...$9.99 / 4pk CANS
Snake Oil is a Red IPA brewed with a combination of American and Australian hops. It has a bright, complex aroma with notes of citrus, peach, and tropical fruit. A variety of carmel malts lend this beer a full-body and a big mouthfeel.

Sierra Nevada Torpedo IPA

Fresh 12pks - canned 4/3

Sierra Nevada Torpedo IPA...$15.99 / 12pk cans
It started as a napkin sketch in a pub, an idea for a device that could boost hop aroma without adding more bitterness. We built the sketch, and the “Hop Torpedo” revolutionized dry hopping and inspired Torpedo Extra IPA. It’s an aggressive yet balanced beer featuring the complex citrus, pine, and herbal character of whole-cone hops.

Ommegang Rosetta Kriek

Ommegang Rosetta Kriek...$10.99 / 4pk
Ommegang Rosetta pays homage to time-honored Belgian methods of aging and blending fruit beers. Ommegang brewmaster Phil Leinhart partnered with Belgian sister brewery, Liefmans - legendary brewers in the world of sour fruit beers - to create a truly unique blend for Ommegang and U.S. craft beer lovers. Pouring a mahogany-brown with a hint of red, Rosetta offers elegance, depth, complexity, and an intriguing interplay of tartness and sweetness. This is derived from Phil's perfectly balanced blend of Oud Bruin (a tart Flemish brown ale) with Cuvee Brut (a fruity and lively Kriek Beer)

Bells Brewing Lager of the Lakes

Bells Brewing Lager of the Lakes....$9.99 / 6pk Cans
Following in the tradition of Czech Pilsners by offering a combination of firm malt and herbal hop bitterness, Bell’s Lager of the Lakes is as refreshing and crisp as a swim in the Great Lakes.

New Belgium Fat Tire Amber Ale...$15.99 / 12pk cans

FAT TIRE AMBER ALE Fat Tire Amber is the easy-drinking Amber Ale born in Colorado from New Belgium Brewing Company, a certified B-Corp.

New Belgium Sour IPA...$8.99 / 6pk 12oz cans
There’s a point on every kite that’s critical to get right. It’s called the “Bridle Point.” It’s where the tow string connects to the kite. Misplacing that point by one inch can make all the difference when trying to get lift. But when you nail it, that thing soars. That’s what the addition of refreshing acidity from our iconic Wood Cellar does to this hazy IPA. It pushes all those juicy fruity qualities forward and adds a flash of refreshing acidity that truly elevates this hazy IPA to new levels. We’ve been dry-hopping sours for over a decade and just couldn’t resist the opportunity to apply that knowledge to a fruit-forward, hazy IPA. We think you’ll like the result.

2017 Merry Edwards Sauvignon Blanc

2017 Merry Edwards Sauvignon Blanc....$43.99

Rated 94/100 Tasting Panel
Peach cobbler, ripe melon and marmalade notes are elegant, supple and detailed in this white, with spice and black tea accents. A refreshing thread of acidity keeps the flavors fresh without interfering with the elegance. Drink now.
Rated 90/100 Wine Spectator

New 2018 Groth Sauvignon Blanc

2018 Groth Napa Valley Sauvignon Blanc...$19.99
With 14% Sémillon in the blend, this is a fleshy, robust white that displays tropical fruit and oak in equal measure. Rich and creamy, it appeals in tangerine, mango and Tahitian vanilla, lifted by vibrant acidity.
Rated 92/100 The Wine Enthusiast
We’ve always been a fan of this Sauv Blanc, but this vintage is almost spiritual in nature. Aromatics are hedonistic with scents of perfumed grapefruit, pineapple and white flowers. Jasmine lilts on the palate that takes lift off with a graceful minerality. Blend of 86% Sauvignon Blanc and 14% Semillon, 75% barrel fermented, three months sur lie aging.
Rated 93/100 The Tasting Panel

Bargain Cabernet

2017 Tribute Cabernet Sauvignon...$10.99
Compare to $15.99 at Wine.com
Hailing from certified sustainable vineyards in three respected growing regions—San Benito County, Paso Robles, and San Lucas, near Monterey County—this robust red is layered with flavors. Savory meets floral character on the nose with a perfume of basil, rosemary, jasmine, and lavender. Spiced cedar and espresso match up with supple tannins. The structure is inherent, with gripping, black-peppered plum on the mid-palate, and floral notes of violet and heather are integrated into the juicy mouthfeel.

Our first love. The original MARTINI & ROSS, conjured under the inspired nose of Luigi Rossi. Since the sun-blushed days of 1863, a devoted selection of regional herbs are at its heart, and natural caramel imparts its rich scarlet hue. An icon di Italia.
