High West Rye Bottled in Bond....$61.99

100 Proof
A boldly flavored whiskey treat made with 100% High West Pot Still Rye. Made in accordance with the standards laid out by the Bottled in Bond Act of 1897, it’s a whiskey that does everything right. One base spirit, crafted at a single distillery, by a single distiller, in a single distilling season. Must be aged a minimum of 4 years and bottled at 100 proof in a federally bonded warehouse.

What is Bottled in Bond:

• It must be the product of one distillation season (January–June or July–December) from a single distillery.
• Aged for at least four years in a federally bonded warehouse.
• Bottled at exactly 100 proof (50% ABV).
• The label must state the distillery where it was made and, if different, where it was bottled.

Abita Christmas Ale

Abita Christmas Ale...$9.99 / 6pk

Our Christmas Ale is a brown ale that is brewed with six types of malted barley and fermented with American Ale yeast. It is brewed with pale malt as well as a combination of Caramel, Biscuit, Munich, and chocolate malts. It is hopped and dry-hopped with Columbus, Cascade, Centennial, and Amarillo and has a nice piney and citrus hop flavor and aroma. The result is a flavorful brown ale that is sweet and malty with a pleasant hop aroma.

Boulevard Nutcracker Ale

Boulevard Nutcracker Winter Warmer Ale...$9.99 / 6pk
Style: Winter Specialty Beer
Nutcracker Ale is Boulevard’s holiday gift for real beer lovers. This hearty, warming brew is a classic winter ale, deep amber in color, with hints of molasses balanced by the “spiciness” of Chinook hops.

2nd Shift Dissatisfied Coconut Imperial Pale Ale

2nd Shift Dissatisfied Coconut Imperial Pale Ale....$13.99 / 4pk 16oz cans
"You put the citra, idaho 7 and simcoe hops in the coconut and brew with 2 row malt, oats and wheat, then ferment with London tropics yeast and drink it down" - those are the lyrics right? No? Great. Enjoy this Pina Colada-Esque take on our Hazy DIPA Dissatisfied, we think you'll go Coco-Nuts for it.

New Belgium Oakspire - 4 Roses Edition

Four Roses Bourbon Edition

New Belgium Oakspire - 4 Roses Edition...$14.99 / 6pk
Four Roses Bourbon Barrel Ale
We first began brewing Oakspire in 2018 as a special release around the Holidays and it has since become a fan favorite. In 2022, we're thrilled to partner with Four Roses Distillery again, known for their smooth, fruit forward and slightly spicy bourbons. Oakspire features a custom-built, proprietary infusion method to pull the flavors from the bourbon-steeped charred oak and marries it with a malty-sweet, deep amber ale.

2019 Silver Oak Cabernet Sauvignon Alexander Valley...$69.98

Compare to $79.99 at Total Wine and More (price checked 10/18/24)
Aged in 50% new and 50% second-use American Oak from the Duncan family's The Oak cooperage in Higbee, Missouri. Matt Duncan joined me for my tasting, and he says the Petit Verdot in the blend, of which there is 0.4%, is co-fermented with the Cabernet Sauvignon, intended to bring focus to the Cabernet fruit. A compelling, brooding, muscular rendition of Cabernet from Alexander Valley with gorgeous boysenberry notes, black currants, and rose petals laced with vanillin notes and toasty oak. Medium to full-bodied with black currants, ripe blackberry and black cherry notes framed by velvety tannins laced with that irresistible vanillin note. Toasty oak spices lend a hint of sweetness, balanced by grippy acidity. Long and complex, revealing umami, garrigue, and crushed slatestone on the finish. It's a terrific wine from the Alexander Valley.
Rated 95/100 Decanter Magazine
Handsome and classic for a Sonoma County cabernet, this full-bodied, approachable wine offers abundant aromas of black cherries, toasted oak and tobacco backed by gorgeous black cherries and black olive flavors on moderate tannins. It’s 95% cabernet sauvignon. Best through 2034.
Rated 94/100 James Suckling

Spottswoode Cabernet Sauvignon

2021 Spottswoode Cabernet Sauvignon 40th Anniversary...$279.99
Pure black currants on the nose with an incredible al dente grape character. It’s almost like grape must. Undertone of ink and violets and sandalwood. Perfumed. Hints of spearmint. Full-bodied, but so well-formed and reserved. A touch of mint on the palate with dark fruits. It is very complete and reminds me of the classy Spottswoode 2001. I keep being impressed with the purity of fruit with the earthy undertones and stones. Savory. A fitting 40th anniversary wine. 90% cabernet sauvignon, 7% cabernet franc, and 3% petit verdot. Best after 2027.
Rated 99/100 James Suckling
Slated for a September 2024 release, Spottswoode's 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon comes across as more vibrant, floral and fresh than the 2020. Violet and cassis notes are accented by hints of crushed stone and pencil shavings on the nose. Hugely complex yet harmonious, this medium-bodied effort is firm but silky in feel, with a long, elegant finish. Lovely stuff.

2020 Spottswoode Lyndenhurst Cabernet Sauvignon...$89.99
Aromas of blackcurrant, hazelnut and chocolate, with hints of mint and sage that follow through to a medium to full body, with wonderful soft and fine tannins that give a velvety texture and persistent finish. So balanced and refined. Subtle. Didn’t include wine from vineyards in Atlas Peak this year. An excellent 2020. Drinkable, but will improve so well in the cellar.
Rated 95/100 James Suckling
Rated 94/100 Decanter


2021 Spottswoode Lyndenhurst Cabernet Sauvignon...$109.99
The second wine of this incredible estate, the 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Lyndenhurst reveals a deep purple hue as well as a great nose of assorted currants, black cherries, tobacco, and lead pencil. It's beautifully concentrated, has medium to full-bodied richness, and ripe tannins, all making for an undeniably delicious, classic, balanced Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon to drink over the coming 10-15 years

The meal was a celebration of the harvest, each dish a testament to the farm's bounty and the love that went into its cultivation and as we shared stories and laughter, there was the warmth and contentment that filled the room.

A bouquet of rich caramel, vanilla bean, and toasted oak, balanced by an underlying sweetness of dark fruits, like dried cherries or figs. This bourbon is rich and full-bodied, with flavors of dark chocolate, toffee, and brown sugar taking the forefront.  The finish is long and warming, with lingering spice, toasted oak, and a slight smokiness.

Avery Old Jubilation English Style Old Ale

Avery Old Jubilation Winter Ale...$11.99 / 6pk 12oz cans

English Strong Ale

Our winter strong ale has a gorgeous mahogany hue, a hint of hazelnut, and a finish reminiscent of mocha and toffee. No spices, just a perfect blend of five specialty malts. Before founding Avery Brewing Co., one of Adam Avery's most-loved styles of beer was the English Strong Ale. Wanting something a little bigger, he created Old Jubilation. This beer was massive when it came out in 1997, but Adam still decided to put it in 6-packs as a holiday gift to Avery fans. To us, "Old Jube" feels like an old friend coming home for the holidays. And, at 8.3% ABV, it's also well-suited to take the edge off at uncomfortable holiday family gatherings.

Boulevard Brewing Fancy Livin White Sangria

 

Boulevard Brewing Fancy Livin White Sangria...$9.99 / 6pk 12oz cans
Ancient Romans, the OG mixologists, began a trend of blending red wine with water, herbs, and sweeteners. As the trend evolved, 15th-century Spaniards added their flair by incorporating fruit, followed by 20th-century innovators deciding red wine wasn't the only star of the show with white wine dancing into the mix. As the world becomes more interconnected, so does the sangria scene. Our white sangria sour ale is a testament to that evolution, bringing a bright new spin on a centuries-old tradition. Cheers to the fruity fusion of Fancy Livin'.
