At the Bar
From Corrie at Goose the Market in Indianapolis:
What could be better than beer or cheese? Beer AND cheese. The Hoosier Beer Geeks and Goose the Market are proud to announce a new club to feed your curds-and-whey craving and appetite for artisanal ales. Register in the Beer and Cheese Club before Dec. 31st and get a 1 year subscription to Beer Advocate Magazine! $99 per 4 monthly allotments of farmstead cheese paired with craft beer plus tasting notes and HBG reviews. Call the Goose to register: 317.924.4944
What's with the sour face? The Goose has a few bottles of Upland's lambics and even more bottles of New Holland's Blue Sunday Sour. Pucker up...these are the bottles for Goose-style meat treats (charcuterie, that is).
Nogne O is keeping us O so thirsty with nogne other than their new Red Horizon fermented on sake yeast and aged in red rice barrels. O...and this year's Dark Horizon is "an imperial stout on steroids." How do you say that in Norwegian? Doesn't matter...just come get some before there are nogne left.
