Prairie Artisan Ales Bomb! Imperial Stout 2023

Unfair how good this is. Top three stout with abraxas and Jackie O’s for me. The chili spice and green chile flavors b add lance it do well. — a month ago

Perennial Artisan Ales

Abraxas 2020

One of the best. Love the chili pepper flavor with dark and milk chocolates. Cinnamon and vanilla are secondary. The spice is what sets this apart from other beers in this style. Needs no pairing. — 3 years ago

Funky Gold Mosaic Sour Ale

That could be my most favorite “sour” ever. It is like in between a sour and a not sour. — 5 years ago

It is a great beer for sure. Moderately priced, too!

Château Gruaud Larose

Saint-Julien Red Bordeaux Blend 1945

Meaty and dense in the nose. Tobacco and leather. A whiff of iodine and a savory and still there palate. Some fresh and pretty fruit still which is kinda epic. Fascinating — 4 months ago

Rogue Ales

Dead Guy Ale

In the style of a German Maibock, a deep honey color with a toffee aroma and a balanced malt/bitter ratio.

Château Lynch-Bages

Grand Cru Classé Pauillac Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 2017

Delectable Wine
9.9

The 2019 Lynch Bages is every bit as magnificent from bottle as it was from barrel, if not moreso. What a wine! Towering and vertical in its bearing, the 2019 is a total stunner. There is plenty of Lynch Bages charm, but what distinguishes the 2019 most is its spine of tannin and energy. Time in the glass brings out sweet red cherry, plum, blood orange and pomegranate and mint. The 2019 is a great, great, great Lynch Bages. It reminds me of the epic 1989, but with the youthful grip of this vintage. A towering Pauillac, the 2019 Lynch Bages will make a great addition to any cellar. (Antonio Galloi, Vinous, February 2022)

Macdonald

Oakville Cabernet Sauvignon 2013

Half a dozen of the Des Moines area MacDonald customers put together a vertical of the 2009-16. All were amazing, beautiful, unique wines. An epic evening! My favorites were the 2012 and 2016, but all were amazing in their own ways. — 5 years ago

This was a special tasting featuring stunning wines. The classic cabernet flavors nuanced by the vintage variations and bottle ages allowed each bottle to tell a story. Amazing.
