Chocolate, Oatmeal, Raspberry, Crème Brulee and a Naked Fish...need I say more about these Valentines Day Desserts!
Samuel Smith's Organic Chocolate Stout ...roasted organic chocolate malt and real organic cocoa used in this ale impart a delicious, smooth and creamy character... 5% ABV
Samuel Smith's Organic Raspberry Ale ...this beer is blended with pure organic raspberry fruit juice and a previously cellared brew creating an unparalleled fruit ale. The smooth distinctive character of the matured ale serves as the perfect counterpoint to the pure organic fruit juice... 5.1% ABV
Samuel Smith's Oatmeal Stout ...very dark brown with a frothy tan head that leaves nice lacing as it shrinks. Aroma is oats, barley, and coffee with cream. Flavor is mocha, oatmeal, and roasted barley... 5% ABV
DuClaw Double Naked Fish...full-bodied and nearly black in color with a light tan head, Double Naked Fish swims away from the rest of the school with a flav
or profile dominated by gourmet chocolate raspberry coffee and cocoa nibs for a taste
experience that is truly unique... 6% ABV
Southern Tier Crème Brulee Stout...rich candied sugar, vanilla, and butterscotch. Appearance - body is black. Taste - rich mix of roast, vanilla, cream, alcohol, and caramel ~ could be described as butterscotch. Palate - full body, creamy texture, average carbonation, and slightly roast bitters...10% ABV

Wendy from
Opici Wines
joins us this Friday from 5pm-8pm. She's got a great wine line-up for your Valentine, including a fresh 2015 Rose and a M
ontepulciano d'Abruzzo to die for! As a bonus, we've invited our dear friends from
Chouquette Artisan Chocolates and Confections to share some of their best Valentine's Day collections. It's quite simple, we sip wine and devour chocolate!
Manifesto 2014 Sauvignon Blanc, North Coast...silvery straw color. Mild, earthy, musty aromas of dried citrus and hay with a soft, bright, dryish light body and a polished, fast kiwi, melon...
Redtree Chardonnay...opens with underlying aromas of lime and kiwi fruit and just a touch of French oak...
Chateau Beaulieu Coteaux D'Aix-En-Provence Rose 2015 Established in 1576 by Henri III, Chateau Beaulieu is the largest estate in the Coteaux d'Aix-en-Provence appellation of southeastern France. The vineyards are located in the heart of a dormant volcano, which allows the vines to benefit from the unique composition and diverse range of soils. Composed of Grenache, Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon, Chateau Beaulieu Rose is an aromatic, fruit-forward wine brimming with
bright, summery notes of strawberry, raspberry and wildflowers.
Colimoro Montepulciano d'Abruzzo DOC Bursting with aromas of dried cherries accented by a hint of spice. Medium in body, this is a fruit-forward wine balanced by moderate acidity and soft tannins. Aged in large Slavonian oak casks for 6 months, this is an easy-drinking wine best enjoyed young with everyday meals. $12/Bottle
Manifesto 2014 Zinfandel, Lodi...dark garnet color. Lively, fruity aromas of red plum, toasty vanilla, lingonberry, and cherry jam with a crisp, dry medium body and a warming, delightful, medium-length blackberry, plum, cherry, and vanilla finish with chewy, dusty tannins and heavy oak...
