We have a bunch of stuff going on as Hurricane Earl churns up the east coast.  We have a tasting with Vinnie from Quality Beverage on Thursday night and a Beringer wine tasting on Friday night.  Both are sponsors of the Deutsche Bank Golf Tournament this weekend and we have tickets and tons of other stuff to give away.  We are also just 9 days away from 1 of our biggest beer tastings of the year.  Our 6^th Annual Kick-Off Beer tasting is next Saturday, September 11^th from 2:30 to 5 PM.  We are still setting the lineup but it will be a bunch of new beers, seasonal Oktoberfests, and lots of your favorites.  We will have our famous tasting pizza and lots of munchies and stuff to give away as well.

 

My cousin Vinnie will be here Thursday from 4:30 to 7 for this weeks beer tasting.  He will be sampling the Bud Light Wheat and Bud Light Lime.  He will also have the Sierra Nevada Tumbler, their new Fall Brown Beer, and Sierra Nevada 30^th Anniversary in the large bottle format.  Lastly he will have the Goose Island Demolition in the 22 oz. bottle.  He will be raffling off 2 tickets to this weeks Deutsche Bank Golf Tournament.  Everybody who tastes the beer is eligible and we will draw the winner at the end of the tasting.

 

Friday night’s wine tasting from 4 to 7 PM is with The Deutsche Bank official wine sponsor, Beringer.  They have a tent set of at the TPC and will be pouring their outstanding wines there.  They have given us a ton of stuff to give away and raffle at the tasting.  We have 2 sets of 2 tickets to raffle off, 1 of the sets being in the 15^th green Sky Chalet where you can have lunch and enjoy some of the wines. 

We also have a bunch of golf shirts, vest, hats, visors, wristbands, and golf chairs.  There is enough stuff for pretty much everybody who comes to the tasting to win something.  I think what we will do is make a slip for all the items and after you taste the wines you reach in the hat to pull out what you have won.

 

As far as the wines we will be sampling we have 3 from Beringer Founder’s Estate.  Pinot Grigio, Riesling, and Pinot Noir make up these very affordable ($10.99) wines.  They will also have 3 wines from the excellent Napa Valley Series.  They will be pouring Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, and Knights Valley Cabernet.  As with all our wine tastings you may take 10 % off any of the wines from the entire Beringer family of wines.  We do have other varietals in both the Founder’s and Napa series that are eligible for the discount as well.

 

We will be open from 10 to 6 on Labor Day for all your last minute holiday needs.  So whether your enjoying the last unofficial weekend of the summer at the beach…having a Hurricane Earl Party...at the golf course… watching the Pats last pre-season game...or the Sox play out the string… be sure to stop in and stock up on your favorite wine, beers, and spirits.  Have a great Labor day weekend everybody.
