West Coast IPA



More copper in color. Hoppy piney in the nose. Subtle chocolate. Definite hop and citrus in mouthfeel. Strong on the hop if your looking for it. Crisp finish.

Troegs Hopback Amber Ale



Dark amber to brown color. Caramel on the nose. Caramel with a subtle crispness of hop on the mouthfeel. Crisp finish. Medium bodied. More malty oriented.

Ommegang White Wheat Ale




Golden in color. Crisp Style Wheat Ale. With more lemony nose and mouthfeel smells and flavors. Subtle hoppy spice punctuates the ale. The foaminess and subtle bitterness makes this distinct when compared to a shandy.

Terra Bossa Shiraz Cabernet Petit Verdt

strong fruit oak nose when young. Almost chocolate in the nose. Not as tart as denoting berries. More plum. Grip on the back end.  You can really tell the oak in this wine. Needs probably time to decant. Does have some tannin. Long finish.

Second taste. Notes of tobacco with chocolate on nose. The rest fairly similar except less tannin

Ideology Gone Wild

Long lasting finish. Flower Garndenia nose. Butter on the front end with pear in the middle. Citrus at the end with a hint of honey to punctuate. Vanilla from the oak is somewhat slight on the finish.
