Beer of The Week- Petrus Blonde Ale

Petrus is a series of high-gravity beers from Brouwerij Bavik in Bavikhove West Flander, Belgium.

Petrus Blond pours a dark, hazy tan with bits of hops floating in the beer. The presentation is actually beautiful. The color is rich and dark and the hop flakes are bright and fresh-looking. The nose is rich with malts but a cleanness granted by the hops. The malts are sweet and rich but not candied. They lend subtleties of citrus and brings out the freshness of the beer.

The palate is very smooth and clean. You get a kick of citrus on the finish but it's still got a lot of that malt kick. This would be a great pairing to lobster or crab.

Wine of The Week- Mission Hill Reserve Chardonnay

 This is a very good Chard. It has a lovely bit of buttery, not over the top though, with some oak is present. This is a wine loaded with peach, tropical fruit (pineapple and banana), floral, butterscotch and toasty oak aromas.The lively acidity, fresh fruit and oak notes combine to deliver an elegant balanced finish.  It’s medium full-bodied with a creamy texture leading to a long finish.

Food Pairing:

An inspired match for pan-seared chicken breast with rosemary and garlic.

Wine of the Week - Bitacora

Bitacora 2007 Malbec

Bitacora 2007 Malbec has a peppery, coffee, earthy, cassis, tobacco and rooty flavours.
