Field House Nelson Mango Mini Hazy
$5.89
From Chilliwack, British Columbia's Field House Brewing
"This mini hazy IPA brings bright citrus peel and whit-grape flavours from Citra and Nelson Sauvin hops. We’ve added natural botanical terpenes for a pop of tropical mango, giving the beer a juicy, aromatic lift. Easy to sip, full of flavour, and proudly experimental - proof that good things really do come in small pours."

JL Denois Cabernet Franc
$34.99
Nestled in the foothills of the Pyrenees in Southwest France is the coolest climate and highest elevation appellation in the Languedoc: Limoux. There, outside the lofty Medieval village of Roquetaillade, lives Limoux's most famous vigneron, Jean-Louis Denois, the gentleman responsible for bringing Chardonnay and Pinot Noir to this ideal terroir in the 80’s. His eponymous domaine, founded after he sold his first Limoux project Domaine de l’Aigle to Gerard Bertrand twenty years back, includes 15 hectares of vines at 400-500 meters above sea level on limestone and clay soils. Denois quickly rose to prominence in France for offering incredible bubbles at incredible prices. His crémants used the finest techniques and clones of Champagne without the same price tag, earning the regard of leading Champagne experts like Jancis Robinson who deemed the wines “a little fruitier, more opulent, and less obviously lees-aged than the best champagnes but infinitely better than cheap champagne” by the turn of the millennium. The wines have only continued on their path to terroir singularity and deliciousness over these last twenty years.
Blanchet Pouilly Fume Calcite
$40.99
Since the early 1990s, winemaker Francis Blanchet has crafted a special selection of pure Sauvignon Blanc from fruit selected from flint-rich vineyards. This unique terroir announces itself explosively: knock two vineyard stones together and you can’t help but be bowled over by the aroma of firecracker smoke. Indeed, fumé means “smoked” in French, which gives you more than a hint of why Sauvignon Blanc from producers like Blanchet in this charmed appellation across the river from Sancerre is so energetic and mineral-driven. Now that Francis’s son, Mathieu, has joined the winery, the Blanchet family can count eight generations of winemakers among its ranks. This centuries-plus dedication to the soul of the Loire and the character of Sauvignon Blanc, its native grape, makes the Blanchet clan a reliable source for the true voice of this vibrant grape.

Cabin Superosity Saturated Pils
$19.59
Cabin Brewing Instagram,
"The final piece of our “Mash Up the Cores” series
and a question we never thought to ask: “has anyone
ever intentionally made a hazy pilsner before?”
Well, we have, and we’re filing for divorce from tradition.
We took the crisp, noble soul of our Luminosity pilsner and force-fed it the juicy, saturated haze of our Super Saturation hazy pale ale.
The result is a beautifully confused 5.2% beer where classic German pilsner malt meets a riot of Citra, Simcoe, and Mosaic hops.
Clarity is overrated. Flavour is not.
