Born Brewing Autumn Amber 4-pack
$18.99
An easy drinking, but suprisingly complex amber ale from here in Clagary. Robust amber malts make for a medium-light body with light caramel tones and a touch of hoppy balance.
Revel Cider Time and Place
$5.99
"Time and Place is the purest expression of the native yeasts in our cidery and on our fruit. It is bright and tart, a blend of apple and wild yeast acidity. Long ageing on tannic apple pomace coaxes out quiet tannins and ripe orchard aromatics. Restrained yet elegant, it is the cider we've always wanted to make."
Casamigos Mezcal
$97.99
The Casamigos Mezcal joins the company's Tequila staple as a regular part of their line up. It is made form 100% Espadin Agave that has been smoked underground in earthen pits for 4-6 days. The pinas cooled then crushed by a traditional horse-powered tahona wheel. After that it is fermented, then distilled using copper pot stills. Bottled at 40%.
Casamigos started its life as a Tequila brand created by long time friends George Clooney (yes, THAT George Clooney) and Rande Gerber and Mike Meldman in 2013. It was sold to Diageo in 2017 for between 500 million and 1 billion dollars.
Knob Creek Cask Strength Rye
$107.99
Like Knob Creek Bourbon, the Knob Creek Rye is distilled at Jim Beam distillery which is located in Clermont, Kentucky. As a Kentucky Straight Rye, the mash bill has to consist of at least 51% Rye grain and be primarily aged in Virgin Oak barrels for at least four years, unless a lesser age is stated on the bottle. Bottled at 59.8%.
Driftwood- White Bark Witbier 4-Pack
$16.49
This traditional Belgian-style wheat ale is brewed with the addition of freshly ground coriander and curacao orange peel. Hops are outshone by the wonderful floral aromas that dominate the nose of this dry and quaffable beer.
Protos Verdejo
$24.99
Verdejo is effectively unique to Spain, and specifically to the Rueda region. It's dominated by citrus flavours that include lemon/lime and grapefruit, along a hint of salinity and a pleasant almond note that often develops after a few years in bottle. This one is aged on it's lees for 3 months, all in stainless steel tanks. It's a brilliant seafood wine, particularly with delicate white fish and the bivalve family (oysters, mussels, clams).
Protos Reserva
$59.99
Things start to get serious in this range. It's produced from south facing vineyards in the Burgos Province from 50-year-old vines and aged in French and American barrels for 18 months. It spends two years in bottle prior to release. There's some grip to this wine along with dark red fruits, spice and minerality, and ideal companion to roasted meats and game. Decanting is recommended.
Last Best IPA 6pk
$18.99
I'd call this the original Calgary IPA. Funny how we didn't really have one until 2014/2015 or so. This was "new-school" at the time, though with the softer styles being more prominent now, this one falls towards "old-school" it seems, with big west-coast style malts and a sticky bitter finish. Very fruity though, and quite delicious!
Glendronach 15 Year Revival
$189.99
Limit 1 Per Customer!
We all know the sad story of GlenDronach 15 Revival disappearing, then reappearing, only to dry up to a near a trickle again (in our market, anyway). We don't see much of it nowadays, so it's always a good idea to nab one when opportunity presents. Modern day classic.
Producer's Description: "In flavour, the expression offers sumptuous notes of dark fruits, rich chocolate and manuka honey with an enveloping, memorable finish worthy of this monumental malt’s history. This luxuriously sherried Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky is bottled at 46% ABV and natural in colour."
