Not the night of the 6th Annual Grand Spring Wine Tasting

Just a reminder that our 6th Annual Grand Spring Wine Tasting is not tonight as originally scheduled. It has been postponed to sometime in May. I will update the website and alert you in a future newsletter when we get a new date. We do have a special beer tasting lined up for this Saturday from 2:30 to 5 PM. Goose Island Brewery out of Chicago is known as the “Sam Adams of the Midwest”. I’ve had a few myself on my visits to the windy city and they are outstanding craft beers. Well they finally hit the east coast and my cousin Vinnie will be here to launch this excellent lineup. He will have Honker’s Ale, IPA, and 312 Urban Wheat Ale in 6 packs for you to sample. As well as their specialty beers, Sofie, Matilda, and Pere Jacques in the large 22 oz. format. This will be one of the best beer launches of the year here at Cork’s so be sure to stop in and give Goose Island a try.

We will take this Friday off from an official wine tasting. But for those in the know …well you know… there is usually a bottle or 2 open for you to try. We will have our friend Mark here next Friday for a special Easter Wine Tasting. He will have some great wines to pair with all your Holiday meals. While we are on the Easter Holiday we will kick off our Spring/Summer hours on April 2nd (Good Friday). We will be open until 10 PM on Friday and Saturday nights right through the summer months. We will be closed on Easter Sunday. Not to forget our Jewish Friends out there, we have plenty of Kosher Wines for your Seder celebrations. I hope you all have a great weekend.

Happy spring!

I hope you all had your Guinness, Jameson, Baileys, or at least a green beer or 2 for St. Patty’s Day. I love this time of year as the days get longer and it’s going to come close to 70 today! And to make it even better NCAA March Madness kicks off in Providence any minute now. And for you Bruins fans out there our rematch with the Penguins and their cheap shot artist should provide some classic brawls tonight.

We will keep things rolling with our new friends from Blue Hills Brewery out of Canton, MA here for our Thursday night beer tasting from 4:30 to 7 PM. They will be pouring their delicious local growlers of IPA, Extra IPA, and Red Baron Ale. He will also have the 22 oz. Imperial Red IPA and hopefully the brand new Marzen in a 22 oz bottle as well. So if you didn’t drink too much last night (like Wallace) then swing on by for a sample and help support the little local guys!

We will not have an official wine tasting this Friday night. Last weeks Tarot Card/Wine Tasting with John and Regina was once again a huge success. One thing she predicted for Cork’s was that we postpone our 6th Annual Grand Wine Tasting until some time in May…OK ...she really didn’t see that in our cards, but due to some scheduling conflicts we will be re-scheduling that big tasting. So go out and enjoy the beautiful weather and have a great weekend.
