Summer's Gonna Sizzle at Cork's with Unique Tastings!

Welcome to Cork’s weekly newsletter. Well, we’ve had a week to bask in the glow of the Bruins Stanley Cup victory. I hope some of you got to go the rolling rally, or the Sox game on Sunday like I did. It was cool to see the duckboats and the Cup in person. Now we just need the Redsox to keep up this torrid pace and bring another World Series trophy back to Boston. We had a very busy weekend here at Cork’s with Jimmy Buffett in town and tons of tastings last week.

To kick off the 1st official Summer Weekend, Marc will be having a “Can Tasting” Thursday night from 4:30 to 7 PM. The days of canned beer coming in crappy tin cans, giving off a weird aftertaste are gone. There are tons of craft beers now in cans, with more and more coming out all the time. Here is what he will be pouring this week. Sixpoint Righteous Ale…Oscar Blues Gordon…21st Amendment Hell or Highwatermellon…Red Racer Pale Ale…Narragansett Summer Ale…and Leinenkugel Summer Shandy. These beers are great for the pool, boats, or patios where bottles just don’t work. So stop by and kick-off the summer season, and be sure to get your 10% discount on any beers you taste that night.

We don’t have a wine tasting scheduled for this Friday night but we have a special “Customer Wine Tasting” next Friday July 1st from 4 to 6 PM. We have Aimee & Clara from “The Wrap” TV show in Norton here to pour some of their favorite wines. They just recently celebrated their 25th show on channel 15 on Norton Public TV. They talk about all things happening locally in Norton and Mansfield. If you live in Mansfield and can’t get the broadcast you can watch it online. Here is the link to check it out. http://nortontv.org/public.html These girls seem like lots of fun, and they’ve picked out some great wines to share with you. We’ll have the complete lineup of what they will be sampling in next weeks newsletter.

Don’t forget our weekly sale items on the website www.corksfinewine.com. And save the date for our 5th Annual Customer Appreciation Day which is Saturday July 30th from 1 to 4 PM. We will have burgers…hotdogs…snacks…wine, liquor, and beer tastings…tons of free stuff...and of course our famous raffle. We’re rounding up some goodies for the raffle now, and if you haven’t been to 1 of these you must come this year. Just another reminder if you are going to any show at Great Woods, stop in for a free bag of ice or any (1) of the 5 brand new Summer Seltzers from Polar…they come in Orange Mango…Tropical Fruit…Pina Colada…Banana…and Pineapple Passion Fruit. These are great summer mixers and are both sodium and calorie free! Have a great weekend everybody.
