Nauti Seltzer

Alcoholic seltzer is the new craze that will invade our shelves this year, and Nauti Seltzer is lining up to be the big name in the niche market.  We’ll be tasting all their flavors Friday the 13th, 4-6pm.  That means Cranberry, Lemon Lime, Raspberry, and Grapefruit will be opened and ready for you to try.  Make sure to come and see what all the fuss is about.

Lagunitas #1

Starting off the month with our first Brewery of the Month tasting.  Lagunitas is rapidly becoming one of the biggest brands in the country.  Don’t let that dissuade you, they are still popping out unique and high quality beers on the regular.  We’ll be showing off some of their lesser known offerings so that you can have a full understand of what their line up tastes like when looking at our shelves.  Friday, May 6th 4-6pm.

Italian White Wine Weekend

Most wine consumers are familiar with Pinot Grigio, the Italian white wine that has consistently been at or near the top of U.S. import lists for the past 15 years. As with other wine trends, however, the popularity of Pinot Grigio has cast something of a shadow over many other excellent Italian white wines – Soave, Vernaccia, Verdicchio, Orvieto, Vermentino, and Gavi, to name a few.

This coming weekend, the Colonial Spirits wine team plans to cast some light on the “other white wines of Italy” with a sale and tasting event. Starting at 9:00 am on Saturday and ending at 6:00 pm on Sunday, we will be offering a 20% discount on six or more bottles of every Italian white in the store. In addition, we have organized a Sunday tasting from 1:00 to 4:00 pm so customers can sample and learn about the refreshingly flavorful, food-friendly white wines from some of the Italy’s leading producers.

Brasserie Les 2 Frères

A new comer to out shelves, this brewery (or brasserie) from Quebec offers us some solid additions.  Quebec has a really wonderful beer culture and these guys are a fine example of that.  We’ll be tasting their two IPAs and an amber.  I found all to be of good quality and would like everyone to come and taste them for yourselves.  Saturday the 30th, 1-3pm.

Rekorderlig

Some of the most unique and flavorful ciders we have in stock, Rekorderlig is a Swedish treat.  With flavors like Wild Berry, Strawberry Lime, and Passionfruit, if you haven’t tried these ciders, you really should.  You won’t be upset with me for recommending this one.  Saturday 3-5pm.  PLEASE NOTE THE CHANGE IN START TIME!
