this bottle takes me back to Alsace.
i spent a weekend in Strasbourg in 2006 protesting/partying in front of the European parliament that's located there.
no wine was tasted as i sticked to self imported bottle of zubrowka vodka, drops of potent LSD (that were dropped to the tail end of the vodka by a really short vicious smiling man - true story) and local pilsner beer that i remember fondly that's called 'meteor' and came in large 750ml bottles(pretty good ice cold and just ok after the sun warmed up the last 3rd of the bottle).
and now... 13 years later. different tastebuds. but I'm still the same person essentially.
100% pinot gris
off dry officially but feels dry.
14% ABV
pale green 👀
🧀 rind, green apple, pear, very fresh lemon and finely chopped greens👃
full body. I'm guessing the rs helps to build it.
medium plus acidity.
creamy, tart and a bit fruity with added white pepper and maybe even ginger 👄
long lingering pleasent creamy 🎯 like tasty and slightly bitter 🍬
great wine, no doubt about it.
tasty and complex, plays with you and changes every sip, but always superb.
excelent vfm (110 nis). expensive but works hard for your money.
need to try the winery Riesling now.
had it all day on it's own while vacationing.
soft and spicy cheese platter could have helped but I'm too full. — 5 years ago
I’ve been thrilled about the espresso martini comeback and am waiting for Cosmos to have one, too (I may be waiting for A While). Obviously, it would be better from a chilled cocktail glass, but straight out of a can or (as I am wont to have it) over ice in a movie theater’s free water cup, it has all the flavors, though without the pleasing head of froth many show. Or the floating espresso bean garnish. But otherwise it checks all the caffeinated boxes. — 6 months ago
A fun and bubbly choice. 🍓
I didn't realize these were produced by Boston Beer.
This is the official hard seltzer of the NHL.🏒
The alchohol is from fermented cane sugar not vodka.
Only 140 calories - 2 grams of carbohydrates and 1 gram of sugar per can.
I perfer the less sweet aspect compared to the spiked ice tea or vodka cocktails for example.
Will be a delightful warm weather beverage on the deck.

Really enjoyed it on the rocks. Also recommended by friend to mix one part vodka with two parts silver tequila, grapefruit juice and club soda over ice for a refreshing take on a Paloma! — 5 years ago
Sipping on ice. So lovely. — 5 years ago
Niagra ice wine. Plummy and sweet, viscous and fruity, rich and creamy. Spectacular dessert wine and fabulous when mixed with vodka and garnished with a frozen grape in the form of an ice wine martini — 5 years ago

I know, I KNOW! Even The Dude would approve, or maybe especially him. It tastes exactly how you want. Creamy but not cloying. A little coffee-y and sweet but not saccharine, especially if you pour over ice. Exceptional. A canned cocktail standard bearer. I mean, unless you don’t like coffee or cream, then all hope is lost. — 6 months ago
