Go Green...Beat LA!

Beat L.A…..beat L.A !!...wow that sure brings back memories of Celtic glory days back in the “Bird Era”. Redsox fans were even chanting it at Fenway last night. Let’s hope the Celts can open up with a win tonight at the Garden as they look to capture their 17th NBA title.

We will help you get ready for the 1st game of the Finals with a Long Trail beer tasting tonight (Thursday) from 4:30 to 7:30. Our friend Scott will be here to sample you on the beers from the “Survival Pack”. Long Trail Ale, Blackberry Wheat, Hefeweizen, and Belgian White make up this delicious Vermont 12 pack. We a re having a summer special on all Long Trail beers going on here at Cork’s. All 6-packs are $6.99 and any 12-pk is just $12.99. With rising fuel costs and the hop shortage you won’t find a quality micro-brew at these prices so stop by taste some beers and stock up!

This weeks wine tasting is an idea that Megan came up with last week and is long overdue for us at Cork’s. We will taste all “Organic Wines” on Friday night from 4 to 7 PM. We have featured many of our organic wi nes in the past but never really done a totally organic tasting. We will start with Pierre Frick Pinot Blanc from Alsace. Next is a delicious Rhone style white blend from Paso Robles called Edmunds St. John Shell and Bone. Our Daily Red is by far our most popular organic wine and is sulfite free for those who get “red wine headaches”. Cono Sur Cabernet/Carmenere from Chile will be next. An organic tasting would not be complete without the crazy wines from Coturri. These inimitable wines are big and bold and not for the faint of heart. They are what sustainable and organic farming is all about. We will sample the 05’ Carignane which I think is the perfect ending to our “green” tasting.

Let’s see...I already got my obligatory sports reference out of the way….covered our 2 tastings…oh yea my weekly weather reference... it’s supposed to be a scorcher this weekend so be sure to stop in for your margarita mixers and the coldest beer in town. I hope you all have a great weekend and we’ll see you soon.
