Beverage of the Week
Ayinger Jahrhundert-Bier (Germany)
The great Beers from Ayinger have been available in the US for more than two decades. Our BOW, the great Jahrhundert-Bier was first created in 1978 to celebrate the brewery’s 100th anniversary. We love everything about this classic German lager.

Medium to full-bodied and nicely balanced with a velvety texture. $14 3.5 Stars/89 points

Brilliant, deep ruby color. The nose is moderately intense offering scents of boysenberry and cranberry with supporting notes of cigar box, balsamic, and earth.

Spirits Reviews
Boone Co. Jail Distillery Hoosier Vodka
Brilliant, crystal clear. The nose is incredibly pure with scents of sweet corn with accents of mineral and hints of fresh hay. The palate echoes the nose delivering a lush and silky grain-driven core with supporting notes of mineral, and subtle hints of white pepper rising on the finish. Medium-bodied with a bright dose of acidity and long, lingering grain and mineral flavors. Made with 100% corn in Lebanon, Indiana. $19.99 – 4 Stars
