Big, bold beer

March 8th, 2009 by Vanessa

Samuel Adams Imperial White should come with a warning.
Not because it’s bad but because it packs a punch.
The fruity and refreshing taste would never lead you to believe that the beer comes in at a whopping 10.3 percent alcohol.
I think Sam Adams puts it best saying, “This is not just a more intense version of our spring [...]

Zen and the art of mixology

February 16th, 2009 by deb

What do you get when you combine Midori, whiskey and green tea liqueur?
I know, it sounds really unappetizing. But, thankfully, when I received a box from Skyy Spirits containing Midori, Tullamore Dew Irish Whiskey and Zen Green Tea Liqueur, they also tossed in a packet of pretty cool recipes, none of which combined all three [...]

Once you pop you can’t stop

February 3rd, 2009 by Vanessa

Pop Rocks candy claims to be entertainment for your whole mouth. If this is true, then the Pop Rocks martini at the Black Orchid Grille could be called a party.
After reading about this specialty drink in the New Year’s edition of Feast, I decided I must try this martini.
On a recent visit [...]

How did you ring in the new year?

January 7th, 2009 by deidre ashe

New Year’s Eve is the perfect time for a party and a few drinks.
Twelve of us headed up to Maine for a night of skiing and hanging out in a rented condo for the night. We packed our cars full of ski equipment, board games, food and drinks. (And cake balls, of course!)
After a few [...]

Chocolatey goodness

December 17th, 2008 by deidre ashe

Fact: Chocolate is awesome.

So when I discovered Three Olives‘ chocolate vodka a while back, I was in heaven.
I checked out the Web site to see how to best use this fantastic invention. It wasn’t as icy chilly outside when I made this drink, but it was so good and I highly recommend it:
THREE-O CHOCOLATE SHAKE

Beer, the Costa Rican way

December 1st, 2008 by emily reily

My husband and I recently returned from a trip to Costa Rica- land of rainforests, volcanoes and yes, beer. It’s true that the small country, with rolling green hills and warm ocean breezes, is not known for its beer, but it did help ease the muscles after three-mile hikes in search of waterfalls and monkeys.
Costa [...]

Chocolate Bock beer by Samuel Adams to be exact.
The beer is a limited edition brew, comes in 750 mL bottles and looks a little fancier than your average beer, complete with a snazzy metallic label.

Samuel Adams has been brewing it since 2003 after pairing up with Swiss chocolate company Felchin. (The Swiss definitely know their [...]

Drink Magic Hat, grab your video camera and get creative.
Magic Hat’s hoping you’ll do just that with its contest Footage of Fools. The contest goes hand-in-hand with the winter 12-pack, Feast of Fools, featuring the Odd Notion Winter brew, Braggot, along with Circus Boy, # 9 and Roxy Rolles.

Take a look at this Cleavage

October 23rd, 2008 by deidre ashe

October is National Breast Cancer Awareness Month, so drink up!
Almost every major company these days seems to have a line that donates proceeds toward the fight against breast cancer. Here’s another that’s joined in:
Cleavage Creek Cellars is run by a California man, Budge Brown, who lost his wife of 48 years to breast cancer in [...]
