Hello to all those who Imbibe,
It's February; do you know what that means?
First, it means Silver Oak Winery has released their latest vintage of Napa Cabernet. The 2005 is currently available at Imbibe, with special pricing through the end of February.
Secondly, it means it is time for another installment of our beer producer meet and greets. This month we'll feature beers from Stone Brewing Company. Details below...come early!
The teaser of the day: coming up on March 31st - A Boutique Bourbon Tasting at The Bistro Restaurant. Details, pricing and reservation information will be announced soon.
And last, but certainly not least, a shout out to my good friend Mike who's hitting a milestone this week. Here's to another 50!
Keep Imbibing,
David

 Silver Oak Winery Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley $79.99
Silver Oak Napa Cabernet is released in February . At Imbibe we're
offering the 2005 for only $79.99 (at the Winery it's $99 a bottle). We also have magnums at 159.99 and a 3 Liter at
$399 (regularly $499).
The 2005 Napa Valley is blended from several
selected vineyards in the appellation. The 2005 is 80% Cabernet, 10% Merlot, 7% Cab Franc and 3% Petit Verdot; the
wine is blended and transferred into 100% new American oak barrels before settling in to age for 25
months in barrel then another 20 months in the bottle, harmonizing its components before
release. Silver Oak Napa is their flagship wine; the 2005 is the finest of this
decade. This price is good through the end of the
month.

New Brews
AVERY BREWING, Boulder Colorado
Hogheaven - Barley-wine Style Ale $7.99/bottle
This dangerously drinkable garnet beauty is a hop lovers delight. The intense
dry-hop nose and the alcohol content are perfectly balanced for a caramel candy-
like malt finish. This is a serious beer for serious beer aficionados that
only gets better with age.
Reverand - Belgian Style Quadrupel Ale $7.99/bottle
This beer is strong willed, assertive, and pure with a heart of candy sugar.
Belgian specialty malts are abundant with lots of Belgian dark candy sugars stirred
into the brew kettle. A beautifully layered beer with hints of dark cherry,
currants and molasses with underlying spices. Sinfully smooth.
Salvation - Belgian Style Golden Ale $7.99/bottle
Salvation has luscious apricot and peach aromas delicately interwoven with
spicy suggestions of nutmeg and cinnamon. This heavenly soft, champagne - like
elixir is cellarable for 3 years.
RUSSIAN RIVER BREW COMPANY - California
Damnation - Belgian Style Golden Ale $9.99/bottle
It has extraordinary aromas of banana and pear with mouth-filling flavors of
sweet malt and earthy hops. The lingering finish is dry and slightly bitter but
very, very smooth.
DOGFISHHEAD - Delaware
Festina Peche $14.99/4pk
A refreshing
neo-Belgian Weisse fermented with honest to goodness peaches. It is
delicately hopped with a pale straw color and served and is often served as an aperitif. A wonderful drink.
Punkin Ale $10.99/4pk
A full bodied brown
ale with smooth hints of pumpkin and brown sugar.
For those of you with a wheat
intolerance we have another great wheat free beer:
GREEN'S - Belgium
Quest Tripel Ale $6.49/bottle
Classic Belgian Tripel except made with no barley: spice
& herb nose; flavors of candied fruit; long, aromatic finish. Rich golden
color, strong & smooth. Bottle conditioned.
