Let's go Bruins! Stock up and watch the Stanley Cup with Cork's Fine Wine

Welcome to Cork’s weekly newsletter. I hope you all had a great Memorial Day weekend. The weather was pretty good for the most part as I think we’re finally out of our everyday rain cycle. And I’m sure it’s spectacular in the gorgeous Pacific Northwest where the Bruins start their quest for Lord Stanley’s Cup tonight. I’m not sure how many of you have been to Vancouver but it is the most beautiful area of the world that I’ve ever been to. Let’s hope the Bruins can sneak out a win or two on the road before the series shifts back to Boston.

This weeks Thursday night beer tasting (4:30 to 7) features the summer beers from Quality Beverage. My cousin Vinnie/Dan/Greg/supermodel (yea right they haven’t sent 1 of those in years!) will be sampling you on 6 beers to get you ready for the warm summer months. They will have Sierra Nevada Summefest…Magic Hat Wacko…Goose Island Summertime…Buffalo Bills Orange Blossom Cream Ale…Kona Wailua Wheat…and Widmer Bros. Citra Blonde Summer Brew. Sounds like a pretty good lineup to me. I know I haven’t had at least 3 of them, and look forward to trying them with you. As with all our Thursday night beer tastings we will take 10% off any of the beers you taste that evening.

We have the return of the Tommy Bolini show for Friday nights wine tasting from 4:30 to 7 PM. He has a great lineup of wines to taste you on including this year’s Redsox wines (as I write this the Sox are getting swept by the Whitesox). He will start you with Chandon Brut Rose Sparkling Wine. Next up is a delicious value priced Sauvignon Blanc from Bogle. Clay Buchholz ChardonClay and Jon Lester Cabernace are the newest additions from Longball Vineyards. Off to Washington State for Hedges CMS Red Blend. He will finish off with the outstanding Luigi Bosca Reserve Malbec from Argentina.

Yikes as I’m writing this its pitch black out and they are saying there are tornados out in Western Mass. Let’s hope they aren’t too bad and they blow over. Just in case I’m going to go hide in the beer cooler and crack open a beer!
