2 mom's unsophisticated guide to wine & beer: April 2006

2 mom's unsophisticated guide to wine and beer. Sunday, April 30, 2006. I was shocked to look at the Spinnakers. Web site and see how high brow they have become. I think it's a sad state when something that was simple and pleasurable, casual and fun, becomes a victim of the poshing up syndrome. The beer is still delicious. Light, smooth and clean. Perfect. I think my favourite pub has now become everyones else's favourite pub. Posted by jess and christle @ 7:50 PM. Links to this post. Links to this post.

2 mom's unsophisticated guide to wine and beer. Sunday, April 22, 2007. A Mouse in the House. Church Mouse is an off shoot of Church and State wines in the Okanagan. I searched their site to see what they had to say about this wine but it wasn't listed which makes me think this bottle was left from a unusually whimsical purchase on the part of the beer and wine store and it has been patiently sitting in the back waiting for someone to notice it.

2 mom's unsophisticated guide to wine and beer. Tuesday, May 30, 2006. NatureLand has left the building. When Christle dropped off the NatureLand Organic Beer i was rushing out of the house to a baseball game, so i plopped it in the fridge anticipating trying it when i got back. While i was out of the house my brother-in-law showed up at our house heartbroken from a break-up with his girlfriend the night before. You can see where this is going right? I liked it. Amber and clear with a decent size thi...

2 mom's unsophisticated guide to wine and beer. Saturday, December 27, 2008. I first tasted this unique beer at the Belgian dinner I attended. Only a small shot glass was offered as it was with the amuse so it was the one beer I had that night that I felt I never really tasted. Of course, the leftovers from that dinner lined our local liquor store shelves shortly after and I picked up a few bottles. Kind of taste more a whispery kind of flavor you're going to just have to try for yourself. The Beringer w...

The word Zinfandel tends to conjure up images of blue haired ladies sipping on sickly sweet pink wine but there is a whole other side to Zinfandels. Rancho Zabaco's 2003 Dancing Bull is a great example of the full bodied, fruity lusciousness that characterizes the Zinfandel. It was reasonably priced at $16 and a great sipping, blogging wine.

2 mom's unsophisticated guide to wine & beer: November 2008
http://unsophisticatedmoms.blogspot.com/2008_11_01_archive.html
2 mom's unsophisticated guide to wine and beer. Saturday, November 22, 2008. Our house wines are made up of a mix of local and non-local, more accessible wines. I have developed an intense passion for local wines, my favourite winery being Alderlea. Personally, i think Roger makes the best, most consistent local wines. The pinot gris and pinot noir are both big sellers in the restaurant and pair well with a variety of foods. Labels: cowichan valley wine. Posted by unsophisicated mom @ 2:38 PM. You can't&...

2 mom's unsophisticated guide to wine and beer. Tuesday, February 06, 2007. We recently found a couple of old friends that have taken up a lot of space in our empties bin, Leffe and Hoegaarden. Now for those of you in other parts of the world, civilized world, you might wonder what's the big deal? Well out here on our Island paradise it is difficult to find a lot of variety of import beer, especially Belgian. Leffe is a blond Abbey beer and lets face it those monks know their beer. I find Leffe to be...

2 mom's unsophisticated guide to wine and beer. Monday, January 30, 2006. Our hall closet is over-flowing with wine bottles. Remnants from our foray into the wine kit phenomenon. Once before we made our own wine; in the closet of our apartment while we were poor university students. The goal at the time being cheap drinks. That is seemingly the only goal one can achieve from making your own wine. What followed can only be called our alcoholic summer. It's very easy to go through those 75 bottles when...

Little Penguin.little appeal. I was trying to think of a diplomatic, delicate way of describing this wine. I think I can best sum it up by saying there are few bottles left unfinished in our house, but this one was. Posted by unsophisicated mom @ 5:24 PM. Links to this post. Wild walla walla wine woman.
