Grimm Artisanal Ales

Pulse Wave Double India Pale Ale

I recently visited the brewery in Brooklyn, NY. They were out of my fave IPA, but this represents a reasonable proxy.
It’s a double, but the alcohol is submerged by a moderate citrus and sweet finish. This husband and wife partnership are doing good things.

Odd Side Ales Mayan Mocha Stout

Rich, exotic, spicy, and excellently balanced! I imagine Mayan Mocha Stout might be the closest proxy to the fermented chocolate concoctions that Mayan sacrificial victims were given!!! — 8 years ago

Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2011

Really great value at Quality Italian. Basically everything you could want out of a Napa Cab in the middle of a proxy restaurant's wine list. Moderately fruit forward. Decent tannin structure for 2011. Total winner at a Wednesday dinner. — 9 years ago
