Cork's Newsletter - September 17, 2009
Welcome to Cork’s weekly newsletter. Thanks to all
of you who attended our 5th Annual
Kick-Off Beer tasting on Saturday. I hope everybody
had a good time and were able to find some new beers
that were to your liking. I really think it was the
best lineup we’ve ever had at 1 of these events.
We’ve also got the amount of tables and vendors down
to a comfortable level where there is still plenty
of stuff to sample, yet still enough room to
maneuver around and talk to the reps or stare at the
supermodels. I hope there was plenty of pizza and
snacks available for everybody…and we’re still
chuckling as we watch the “pizza cam” video!!...I
think 1 guy had a whole pie himself…at least he
bought lots of beer...right Mel? Well now that the
beer tasting is over it’s now time to set our sights
on the 5th Annual Grand Fall Wine
Tasting. We’ve kicked a bunch of dates around and
have come up with Thursday, October 29th
from 5 to 7:30 PM. Keep an eye on the website (corksfinewine.com)
and we will post all the news and updates on the
next big Cork’s event.
One of the original founders of Wachusett Brewery
will be here tonight (Thursday) from 4:30 to 7:30 to
taste you on his yummy local brews. I’m not sure
exactly what Mr. Peter Quinn is going to pour, but
if it’s anything like his last visit here he will
open any and all that he carries. Including the
ever popular Blueberry Ale, Green Monsta Ale (watch
out Yankees we’re coming for the division!), and the
award winning Octoberfest. We have their whole
lineup including the new “Box of Brews” which is
their 12 bottle mix pack, and we’ll take 10 % off
tonight only on these delicious local beers so stop
by and check them out.
We will take 1 more Friday night off from the wine
tastings as I had a late cancellation for this
week. It will give me more time to recover from…
yawn…yet another wine tasting with like 800 wines
and tons of food at a luxury Boston hotel…tough
gig…I know. But the good news is we have the return
of the Tommy Bolini show next Friday night to look
forward to! So enjoy the great fall weather...week
2 of the Pats (how was that for a comeback
victory?)…the Sox playoff drive...and your favorite
fall beverage.
