Winter Storm

No, not the "blizzard" we experienced a few weeks ago, but a great beer at a clearance price here at the market. From Clipper City Brewing in Baltimore, Maryland, we just received 10 cases of their Winter Storm Ale, a strong ESB that drinks more like a crisp, bitter IPA at a price of only $4.99 per six-pack ($4 off the regular price).

What's New?

Wine
This week, two new bottlings of Australian Shiraz have hit the shelves at Stimmel's Market, and they are both rich, dense, powerful red wines at an affordable price. The 2005 Thorn-Clarke Terra Barossa ($12.99, 750 ml) and the 2005 Pure Love Layer Cake Shiraz ($14.99, 750 ml) are ripe and ready to drink now.


Beer
Look for a new Imperial Stout this week from Illinois' Two Brothers brewery; the "Northwind" ($4.99, 22 oz) is a big, brawny stout that is perfect to keep you warm as Winter churns on. Also, the Great Lakes variety 12 packs are back, and at only $12.99, are a heck of a deal. Get them before they're gone again!
