UNIQUE BEVERAGE RELEASES!
This weekend, we are releasing two new draft-only beverages! This also marks our first release from Block 15 Cellars!
PIQUETTE, PINOT GRIS AMBRE
Introducing Piquette! A sparkling, dry, low-alcohol and acidic wine brought to you by Block 15 Cellars. Using methods passed along through generations of vineyard workers, piquette is made from second pressings of grape pomace and spontaneously fermenting the remaining sugars. Our first Piquette, Pinot Gris Ambre was pressed from a combination of fresh pinot gris and pomace from our pinot gris skin contact wine. Ambre pours a brilliant garnet red with orange highlights. Notes of ripe cranberry, wild strawberry and barnyard accompany zippy acidity and a dry finish, giving this sparkler refreshing balance and complexity. Funky, fruity and fun, this piquette is perfect for any occasion, any time of day!
BERLINER WEISSE
Brewed in traditional fashion, this is a true spontaneous Berlin-style weissen bier that is low in alcohol, refreshingly tart, and deeply complex. A perfect summertime crusher at just over 3% ABV, this beer offers up creamy, tangy and stone fruit notes perfect for the season. Served in true form to berliner weisse in Germany, raspberry fruit syrup is offered via pump by your server to add a final touch of sweetness for balance.
