SUMMARY:Wine Tasting w/ Ken and Lee
DESCRIPTION:We have once again teamed up with Ken Hoggins from Ken’s Wine Guide and Lee from Wineseller Ltd. for an afternoon packed with good wines. \nAs some of you may know\, Ken has been a long time supporter of ours and us of his. Over the years our relationship has grown cultivating in opportunities like this\, the Power’s Gallery event\, and those to come. Ken is a wine critic that is locally based and has a palate that will compete with the best. His style of wine is balanced and smooth with some extra weight on fruit. His palate has yet to steer him wrong\, and with an award under his belt for best Wine Blog\, I don’t foresee him slowing down anytime soon. If you haven’t visited his page yet\, you should (click on the link above). \nLee heads Winesellers Ltd.\, an importer\, for Massachusetts if not further. With a solid grasp and understanding of wine\, Lee can throw punches with the rest of them. Wineseller Ltd is focused on wines that represent wines that offer quality and value\, e.g. Zuccardi\, Quinta de la Rosa\, and Georg Albrecht just to name a few. Unlike many\, Lee is more than just a sales rep in the wine industry\, he is a true wine advocate. With more than enough miles under his belt\, Lee is here to teach the world how to enjoy good wine one bottle at a time. \nThese are the wines that will be sampled: \nRed:\nZuccardi Q Tempranillo 2011\nZucardi Tito 2014 \nWhite:\nThanisch Bernkasteler Badstube Riesling Kabinett 2015\nGeorg Albrecht Schneider Niersteiner Hipping Riesling Spatlese 2013\nVinum White Elephant 2014 \nFortified:\nQuinta de la Rosa Porto LBV 2011\n\n*Click on the links to see Ken’s Review of that wine*\n\n-Swirl\, Sniff\, & Sip

SUMMARY:Wente Vineyards Wine Tasting
DESCRIPTION:One of the original wineries that established itself as one of the wineries to never forget. You may not know it\, but Wente Vineyards is who we have to thank for the majority of the Chardonnay we drink today. Creators of the Wente Clone Chardonnay solidified Wente Vineyard importance to the California Wine Industry and the market at large. To this day Wente wines are perceived as some of the best expressions of the eponymously named clone\, but tasting is believing. \nSo stop by and taste for yourself why Wente Vineyard isn’t going anywhere anytime soon.

SUMMARY:Dovetail Sake Tasting
DESCRIPTION:I am extremely excited for this tasting as these Sakes are the real deal. The best part? They are produced right here in MA. \nTodd Bellomy\, head brewer at Dovetail\, honed his art in Japan and brought here to Massachusetts with one thing in mind\, freshness. Because most of the Sakes available to us are either from Japan\, California or Oregon they aren’t as fresh as they could be. He wanted to change this by producing actual Sake using traditional methods and getting it to restaurants and retailers as fresh as possible. I would keep going on the subject but I wouldn’t do it nearly as much justice as the Boston Magazine did with the article Drink This Now: Nakahama Junmai\, by Dovetail Sake. (<– Link) \nIf that article doesn’t get you I bet anything the product will. \n*Swirl\, Sniff\, & Sip

SUMMARY:Ardbeg - Taste the smoke!
DESCRIPTION:Scotch fans\, it’s Ardbeg time…  Revered around the world as the peatiest\, smokiest\, most complex single malt of them all. Yet it does not flaunt the peat; rather it gives way to the natural sweetness of the malt to produce a whisky of perfect balance.  Typically most whiskies are chill-filtered and reduced to a strength of 40% ABV. Ardbeg Ten Years Old\, however\, is non chill-filtered and has a strength of 46% ABV\, thus retaining maximum flavour\, at the same time giving more body and added depth.

SUMMARY:Lexington Bourbon
DESCRIPTION:Lexington Bourbon is an outstanding everyday Bourbon with enough rye to add some spice but an overall deep flavor\, rich oak and vanilla.  At 86 proof it is an excellent cocktail builder yet not too hot on its own.  It’s an exceptional value!

SUMMARY:Empson Wines w/ Niall
DESCRIPTION:Empson Wine Importer has been a long-standing partner of ours and we are excited to have Niall stop by and pour some of their gems. Focused predominantly Italian wines but with a sprinkling of wines from other regions\, Empson has brought os some of the biggest Italian names: Conterno Fantino\, Marcarini\, Lagaria\, and Canella. This is an exciting tasting because Italian wines are exciting. Italian wines embody the idea of terroir and entice the palate with the layers of flavors. \nThis is a tasting not to be missed because we never know what Niall has in store. \n  \nHope to see everyone there.

SUMMARY:Masciarelli Wines w/ John
DESCRIPTION:How long has it been since we have been having these regularly occurring wine tastings with John? Years. John is both a Portfolio Manager and Sales Rep for Masciarelli Wine Co. so you can say he knows a thing or two about wine. But\, unlike many wine experts\, John doesn’t throw his knowledge around as a way of intimidating you. Instead\, he consoles you and guides you through his wines in a manner that allows you to grasp and understand what tastes you are trying. We are not all cut out to be connoisseurs\, but it is nice when someone like John can make tasting wine a fun and relaxing experience versus a stressful one. \nIf you have not yet met John or have tried his wines\, this is the opportunity to do so. \nCarpe Vinum

SUMMARY:Hardwick Vineyard and Winery w/ Brian
DESCRIPTION:With every state now officially producing wine\, the real question becomes\, how do you stand out? While some wineries stick to the tried and true\, others work with what is available. Hardwick Vineyard is the latter. Hardwick is Massachusetts grown from vineyards to bottle. Producing an array of wines that take advantage of indigenous grape varietals and produce (cranberry and blueberry)\, Hardwick is rolling through at full charge. These wines may not be your typical Chardonnay\, Cabernet\, and Merlot\, but when has Massachusetts ever flowed with the current. The wines may be unusual or\, at the very least\, different\, but one thing holds true and that is they are all well made.

SUMMARY:Goose Island Bourbon County Vintage Tasting
DESCRIPTION:With all the Goose Island fever going around here at Colonial\, what better way to end it all that with our biggest tasting of them all.  On December 7th\, starting at 6pm\, we will be opening bottles of Bourbon County Brand Stout\, Coffee\, and Barleywine going back to at least 2013.  While we are keeping the line up close to the chest for a while\, I will divulge that we will be opening some special bottles from previous years.  Which ones?  How old?  There is only one way of finding out.  This was a very popular event last year\, so make sure to keep an eye out for that special Hop on the Bus email.  Like last year\, you will have to RSVP and pay for your ticket.  Space was very limited last year with only 20 spots and it is looking like that will be the case again this year.  While this event is still a ways away\, but I would like plant the seed early.  Stay alert\, because a tasting of this caliber only comes once a year.

SUMMARY:Jack's Abby Kiwi Rising Tasting
DESCRIPTION:Previously in 500ml\, Jack’s Abby Kiwi Rising\, their double IPL with freshly harvested New Zealand hops\, will be in 4 pack cans.  It’s an awesome beer\, so to celebrate and spread the word\, we will have them come in to taste all who pass with this fresh IPL.  Jack’s Hoponius Union is becoming a staple brand for Massachusetts and their Excess IPL\, a sister to Kiwi Rising\, moves off our shelves constantly.  New Zealand hops have a crisp and clean flavor\, so paired with the light body of a lager\, Jack’s Abby makes an easy drinking\, flavorful IPL.  Come join us Saturday December 3rd\, 2-4pm.

SUMMARY:Goose Island Wild Ale #2
DESCRIPTION:We did this back in October and it was a lot of fun.  So much fun that we decided to do it all over again.  December 2nd\, starting at 6pm\, we will be opening bottles of Sofie and Matilda from this year as well as bottles of Lolita\, Juliet\, Halia\, Madame Rose\, and Gillian all from 2015. With wild ales like these\, we found that giving them a year to sit and mellow out was the right call\, so we’re doing it again.  Keep an eye out for an email in which you can RSVP to.  This was a fun\, relaxed tasting in which we had some fun with some very nice\, rather expensive beers.  It is a great opportunity to try a $30 bottle of fruit added sour ale without paying the $30 price tag.  It does hurt that instead of one\, we will be tasting five.

SUMMARY:GOOSE ISLAND BLACK FRIDAY!!
DESCRIPTION:For the second year in a row we will host the Goose Island Black Friday Bourbon Country release. This was a huge success last year and we don’t see why it won’t be again. We will be opening our doors at 9am on Friday\, November 25th. Once the doors open\, we will be funneling people into our tasting room where we will have the Barleywine\, Coffee\, and Brand Stout. It will be first come\, first serve\, so I would recommend getting here early. To put it in perspective\, the first people showed up last year around 5:30am. We will have a limit on the Brand Stout\, but it will be over a case. We have not decided the limits on the Barleywine yet\, but due to the lack of stock on Coffee\, we will be limiting it to one bottle per person. We will also have previous years’ Barleywine and Brand Stout for sale as well. \nWhile waiting in line and walking around the store\, we will be pouring samples of the 2016 Brand Stout\, 2014 Brand Stout and 2014 Barleywine as well as be handing out free pastries. Hopefully everyone will not eat so much the day before that they cannot wolf down a few sweet treats.
