Thiriez Amber Farmhouse Ale





Thiriez Amber French Farmhouse Ale...$9.99 / 750ml
Amber waves of grain . . .
The label says it all: amber waves of grain under a full, blue sky. This is the only beer from the little French farmhouse brewery, Thiriez, that isn’t pungent with the aroma of hop bitterness. Instead, Thiriez Amber is a celebration of wholesome, freshly harvested barley malt, and that is what you get in the nose. The barley that grows in the fields of French Flanders (quite close to the border with Belgium) is some of the best in the world. Meanwhile, along with all that pure malt goodness you’ll detect a few spicy, earthy notes – just what you want in a real farmhouse brew – that derive from a very special yeast that is exclusive to the Thiriez brewery. Some of the malt is lightly roasted, which lends a mild, nutty flavor, and gives the beer a reddish tinge. It’s more of a red beer than an amber one, truth be told.

Daniel Thiriez painstakingly crafts his rustic farmhouse ales in a rustic farmhouse brewery in the beautiful countryside of French Flanders. This brisk Amber Ale is really a luminous golden-red. It is perfectly balanced, with a soft, fresh hop bitterness playing off a hearty whole-grain maltiness, and accented by an entrancing nose of earth and spice that is typical of French farm-country brewing.

Jim Beam Quarter Cask








Jim Beam Signature Craft Quarter Cask Finished....$32.99
New release from Jim Beam in their Signature Craft Series.
The 2014 edition is finished with bourbon aged in quarter sized casks for four to five years.  The addition of bourbon from smaller, newly charred oak barrels heightens the deep caramel and vanilla flavors and adds a hint of smoke.

Herman Story Nuts and Bolts scores big!







2012 Herman Story Nuts and Bolts Syrah....$46.99
Even better, his 2012 Nuts & Bolts is a smoking 100% Syrah that spent 16 months in 50% new French oak barrels. Full-bodied and decadent, yet never over-the-top, heady or cumbersome, it’s loaded with ripe blackberry, cassis, new leather, white pepper and hints of smoked duck. Drink this hedonistic beauty over the coming 4-6 years, although I see no reason to delay gratification either.

I loved these latest releases from winemaker Russell From. His 2011s are excellent in the vintage, with slightly toned down, elegant profiles that stay focused and tight on the palate. His 2012s are even better, with hedonistic, textured profiles and fantastic purity of fruit. They’re all worth checking out.

Get Radical Train to Mars


Get radical is a brewing project revolving around the concept of experimentation and collaboration. Founded in 2013, get radical is based in Paris, France and is the project of Brandon Evans & Simon Thillou of the world famous la cave a bulles. We are brewing artisinal, experimental beers inspired by music. With our eclectic tastes, we set out to produce hand crafted beers that don't find themselves fitting into a particular style, just as most of our favorite musicians don't fit into a particular genre. Collaborating with our friends (who have breweries) our goals for get radical are to encourage new ideas to the brewing culture of France while bringing our community closer together. Sante !


Get Radical / Thiriez Train to Mars...$9.99 

“A Saison de Mars hopped with Mosaic, Aramis, Simcoe and fermented with the world famouse Thiriez house yeast.”


INSPIRATION:
Inspired by so many things it's hard to believe. While tasting the colab that Brasserie Thiriez and Saint Somewhere brewed & listening to the song "Stars" by Hum on repeat, the idea of Train to Mars finally transpired. A modern, hoppy version of a "Biere de Mars"
CONCEPT:
While at Chez Thiriez, we scoped out his hop selection and realized we could actually brew with both American & French hops and have the names spell out MARS; Mosaic, ARamis, and Simcoe. Well, they ended up being a perfect blend that provide the delicate yet exotic aromatic quality of Train to Mars, but used with enough restraint to accompany the Thiriez house yeast strain. Train to Mars isn't exactly "Radical" but it is our favorite brew so far and interestingly enough a third of the batch is aging in Cote du Rhone barrels accompanied by locally sourced honey and Brettanomyces; sounds a bit more like Get Radical, doesn't it?
REALIZATION:
By far our most collaborative effort yet. Brewed with our friends at Brasserie Thiriez in Esquelbecq, France in January 2014.

Very Limited Barrel Aged Oatmeal Stout


Only a hand full of cases came into the state.


De Molen and Anchorage Brewing Collab Mud and Funk BA Stout...$20.99
An 11.9% Imperial Stout aged in Wine and Bourbon Barrels 

Gabe Fletcher (Anchorage Brewing Co.) and Menno Olivier (De Molen) met up in Bodegraven to brew what became Mud & Funk. The beer started off as an Oatmeal Imperial Stout. It was then aged in a mixture of bourbon and wine barrels and a brett culture and allowed to take its time to mature.

New limited edition Cutty Sark 100 proof





Very limited!
Cutty Sark Prohibition Edition Scotch Whisky...$26.99 
50% ABV (100 US PROOF)
Released 90 years after the end of the era which it celebrates, Cutty Sark Prohibition Edition has been crafted as a salute to the notorious Captain William McCoy, who smuggled Cutty Sark blended Scotch whisky into America during the Prohibition era of the 1920s. Captain McCoy’s impeccable reputation for fairness and dealing only in the finest, genuine and unadulterated liquor gave rise to Cutty Sark being referred to as “The Real McCoy”. Prohibition Edition is bottled at 50% ABV (100 Proof – USA Measure), whilst our regular Cutty Sark blend is 40% ABV. This is a “small batch” blend of the finest single malts and top-quality grain whiskies. Hand-selected American oak casks give subtle signature flavours of vanilla and citrus fruits, whilst the overall flavours and finish are extremely smooth and thrillingly complex. The black glass bottle has a cork seal – reflecting the traditions of the time.

2012 Capcanes Mas Donis Barrica...$12.99
Another baby Priorato, the 2012 Mas Donis, a custom cuvee from Eric Solomon, is composed of 85% Grenache and 15% Syrah aged nine months in both new and used French and American oak. The Grenache comes from 70-year-old vines, and the Syrah from 30-year-old vines. It is difficult to find a better value than this incredibly rich effort. The bouquet offers up a smorgasbord of aromas, including crushed rocks, spring flowers, kirsch liqueur and blacker fruits. Full-bodied with a velvety, voluptuous texture, and admirable opulence, density, purity and texture, it is nearly impossible to believe that something this good could be priced at $12 a bottle."
Rated 94/100 Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate






2012 Bodegas Castano Solanera...$13.99
Even more remarkable is the 2012 Solanera Vinas Viejas, a blend of 70% Mourvedre, 15% Cabernet Sauvignon and 15% Grenache aged 10 months in a combination of French and American oak. A custom cuvee that is only available through importer Eric Solomon, this amazing red wine displays notes of lead pencil shavings, acacia flowers, black raspberries, blueberries and black currants. This full-bodied, intense 2012 tastes like it should cost three to five times as much. Full-bodied, stunningly pure and textured, it should last for 4-5 years, possibly longer.

Stuise Pannepot 2013



2013 Struisse Pannepot...$5.99 / 11.2oz

"In the early 1900s, the village of De Panne, close to the French border, was famous for two things -- the ‘Pannepots,’ or fishing boats, that could be seen along the coast, and the unique dark ale enjoyed by the local fishermen. Our Old Fisherman’s Ale is a tribute to these hardy sailors and their rich, flavorful brew. Unfiltered. Unpasteurized. Bottle-conditioned."

Great 2012 Chateauneuf du Pape
2012 Clos des Papes Chateauneuf du Pape...$124.99
Tasted from multiple foudres, the 2012 Chateauneuf du Pape is stunning! Showing surprising depth and concentration in the vintage, with full-bodied richness and texture, all of the samples showed perfumed, complex aromatics, fantastic mid-palates and serious back-end structure. Less forward than the 2011, with plenty of oomph, it will most likely require short-term cellaring to come around, and have a broad drink window
Rated 95-98/100 The Wine Advocate

Rated 97/100 The Wine Spectator



2012 Bosquet des Papes Chateauneuf du Pape Cuvee Chante le Merle...$69.99
the brilliant 2012 Chateauneuf du Pape Chante Le Merle Vieilles Vignes is comprised of mostly old vine Grenache, with smaller parts Syrah and Mourvedre. Perfumed and already complex, with kirsch, blackberry, crushed stone, pepper and garrigue, this full-bodied effort has a silky, polished texture, big structure and serious length on the finish. It will mostly likely benefit for 3-4 years in the cellar and have 15-20 years of total longevity. Drink 2017-2032.
Rated 94-96+/100 The Wine Advocate


2012 Bosquet des Papes Chateauneuf du Pape A la Gloire de Mon Grandpere...$62.99
Looking just as good, with a slightly more approachable profile, the 2012 Chateauneuf du Pape A La Gloire de Mon Grand-Pere is a field blend of close to 100% Grenache that comes from the Gardiole lieu-dit. Aged all in demi-muid, it is an awesomely textured, seamless effort that boasts knockout aromas and flavors of kirsch, wild strawberries, herbs de Provence and red licorice. Not quite as backwards or concentrated as the Chante Le Merle, it should be approachable at an earlier age and drink brilliantly for 15 years or more. Drink 2015-2027.
Rated 94-96/100 The Wine Advocate



2012 Domaine Marcoux Chateauneuf du Pape...$66.99
From a vintage with miniscule yields and the same blend as the 2011, the 2012 Chateauneuf du Pape, which was tasted out of barrel, offers a pretty, fresh and fragrant profile with gorgeous purity of fruit. Black raspberry, licorice and floral notes all emerge here, and it builds in richness and depth with time in the glass. It should be reasonably approachable on release and drink well for 10-12 years. Drink 2014-2024.
Rated 92-94/100 The Wine Advocate

2012 Domaine Marcoux Chateauneuf du Pape V.V...$166.99
Even better and showing plenty of similarities to the 2011, the 2012 Chateauneuf du Pape Vieilles Vignes is a 3,000-bottle lot of roughly 100% Grenache that was brought up all in stainless steel (this is due to not having enough juice to fill a larger barrel). Per Sophie, this cuvee was difficult to taste early on (which is a comment I heard often with regards to the 2012s) but had just recently turned the corner. Seamless, layered and textured, with overflowing Grenache generosity, this full-bodied effort gives up plenty of pure raspberry, black raspberry, violets and tinges of licorice on the nose and palate. As with the 2011, it should be reasonably approachable on release, yet have 15+ years or more of longevity. Drink 2015-2027.
Rated 95-97/100 The Wine Advocate

2012 Domaine Janasse Chateauneuf du Pape...$59.99
Looking pretty close to the 2009 and 2010 in terms of quality, the 2012 Chateauneuf du Pape has slightly less Grenache than prior vintages, with 15% Mourvedre, 8% Syrah and the rest Grenache. Violets, underbrush, sweet black raspberry and cassis all flow from this medium to full-bodied, pure and elegantly styled effort. Showing plenty of fruit, good acidity and terrific purity, it should evolve gracefully for 12-15 years. Drink 2015-2027.
Rated 92-94/100 The Wine Advocate

2012 Domaine Janasse Cuvee Chaupin...$79.99
Also showing the purity and freshness of the vintage, the 2012 Chateauneuf du Pape Cuvee Chaupin, which was harvested towards the end of September, displays classic licorice, crushed violets, flowers and mineral-tinged black fruits to go with a medium to full-bodied, beautifully balanced and lively feel on the palate. Always 100% Grenache that comes from very old vines and sandy soils, it is one impressive tank sample. Give it a couple years in the cellar and enjoy bottles over the following decade or longer. Drink 2015-2027.
Rated 94-96/100 The Wine Advocate

2012 Domaine Janasse Chateauneuf du Pape V.V....$106.99
Most likely one of the top 2-3 wines produced, the 2012 Chateauneuf du Pape Vieilles Vignes is a rough blend of 80-85% Grenache, 10% Mourvedre (which was harvested October 10) and the balance Syrah, that hit 15.4% natural alcohol. Seeing the same elevage as the 2011, it sports an inky purple color as well as spectacular array of black and blue fruits, violets, liquid flowers and underbrush to go with an energetic, seamless and full-bodied profile on the palate. Lighter weight than the 2007 and 2010, it possesses notable freshness, purity and elegance. It should benefit from short-term cellaring and thrill for upward of two decades. Drink 2016-2032.
Rated 95-98/100 The Wine Advocate


2012 Domaine Giraud Grenache des Perriere...$106.99
The cream of the lineup, and possibly the vintage, the 2012 Chateauneuf du Pape Les Grenaches de Pierre is an incredible effort that possesses notions of bouquet garni, pepper, licorice, cassis and crushed stone-like minerality. Full-bodied, powerful and layered, yet also elegant and with terrific intensity and depth, it too should be reasonably approachable in its youth and evolve gracefully for 15 years or more. If you can, don’t miss a chance to latch on to a few of these. Drink 2015-2027.
Rated 94-97/100 The Wine Advocate

2012 Domaine Giraud Premices Chateauneuf du Pape...$39.99
The 2012 Chateauneuf du Pape Premices, which had just been bottled at the time of this tasting, has fantastic ripeness and offers up beautiful Provencal notes of sweet blackberry, currants, toasted spice, cured meats and earthy notes to go with full-bodied richness and depth on the palate. Rich, fleshy and textured, it’s another knockout Grenache-dominated blend from this estate. Drink now-2020
Rated 91-93/100 The Wine Advocate

2012 Domaine Giraud Tradition Chateauneuf du Pape...$53.99
Still in tank, the 2012 Chateauneuf du Pape Tradition has plenty of floral, herb and underbrush notes to go with a core of sweet berry fruit. Medium to full-bodied, rich and textured, with ultra-fine tannin, it should be accessible in its youth yet have a solid 12-15 years drink window. Drink 2015-2027.

Dieu du Ciel Rigor Mortis




Dieu du Ciel Rigor Mortis ABT....$4.99 / 11.5oz
Rated 99/100 RateBeer
Quadrupel - 10.5% alc./vol.oz.
"Strong brown ale inspired by the beer brewed by Belgian Trappist monks. Very little bitterness, this beer has intense malty and sweet flavours, mixed with the taste of chocolate and caramel. It presents complex red fruit and spice flavours due to the type of yeast that is used during the brewing process. This beer is at its best only after it has aged for six months. The Rigor Mortis are complex beers designed and brewed with patience and care in the tradition of the great Belgian Abbey beers.
Rigor Mortis Abt is brewed only once a year, and is sold in April until stocks last.
This beer won a gold medal (first place amongst 10 gold medal winners) at the adjudicated "MBeer" contest during the Mondial de la Bière in Montréal in 2006. Rigor Mortis Abt will become available starting on Monday May 18, 2009. As only one brew was made, it probably won't stay long on the shelves! It won't be brewed again before next year, so don't hesitate to make some reserve of it, mostly that this beer can easily withstand a few years of aging." -- brewery
