Blooming libations

May's new arrivals (and we're only 9 days in) are too long to list, but here are a few:

Beer
Berghoff Red Bock - medium-bodied, malty and smooth, and on clearance for only $3.99 a sixer.
Bear Republic - This famed California brewery has just unleashed its hoppy lineup of beers here in Ohio. We just received the Racer 5, Big Bear Stout, Red Rocket, Hop Rod Rye, and the XP Pale Ale. They're all 22 oz. bottles at $4.99 each.

New Holland Lucid - A Kolsch-style brew ($8.99 6pk.)
New Holland Existential - 10 different types of hops and a truckload of malt ($6.99 22 oz.)

Otter Creek White Sail - Belgian-style wit, with hints of orange peel and coriander ($7.99 6pk.)


Wine
Bocce Red Zinfandel and Pinot Grigio - These California wines are on closeout from the distributor, and are priced to sell at just $3.75 per bottle.

Babich 2006 Sauvignon Blanc - The new vintage for Babich is a Wine Spectator "best buy"; exhibiting crisp grapefruit and granny smith apple aromas and flavors, it's a perfect white wine to sip on the patio.

Toasted Head Red Table Wine - From the Giguiere Ranch, this is a nice blend of Syrah, Petit Syrah, Petit Verdot and Cabernet Sauvignon. And at only $10.99 a bottle, it's a great quality/price ratio (QPR).

Goose Me

Check out the outstanding "Special Reserve" beers from Goose Island:

Demolition - A golden ale brewed with saaz and styrian golding hops for a grassy, citrus aroma and lots of the finest pale malt for a "honey-ish", intense flavor.

Matilda - Made with a rare yeast strain, the complex maltiness is balanced by a generous dose of fresh hops. This delicious ale is both fruity and spicy.

Pere Jacques - Loads of malt and Belgian yeast frame this very fruity and malty ale.


These goodies are each $9.99 per 4-pack; Goose Island is one of the most renowned Midwestern craft breweries, and has been brewing great beer for years. Stop by Stimmel's Market and pick up some of the best that they have to offer.

Cheers!
