Holiday lists

I made my list and checked it twice. Some adult beverages for both the naughty and the nice.
  • For your Best Booze Lovin' Pals: Backbone Bourbon-Indiana's own; small batch BIG flavor!
  • For the "Impossible" to please Wino on your list: Educated Guess Cabernet Sauvignon-this bold California Cab has a label with the chemical breakdown of WINE on it. Impressive!
  • For your In-Laws: RumChata Horchata-this rum based liqueur is a blend of coconut run and nutmeg, ginger. You can have it in coffee in the morning, on the rocks during the day and as an after dinner drink. That should make the day go smoothly for all!
  • For the EX: Vampire Pinot Noir. Let he/she suck the life out of someone else...
  • For the Potential: Luscious Moscato-silky, sweet, smooth. Serve with mistletoe.
  • For the rockers: Arizona Stronghold Mandala Red-made by former Tool frontman Maynard Keenan.
  • For the tree huggers: Stellar Organics No Sulfites Added Cabernet Sauvignon. No excuses for the headaches now...
  • For your BFF: Santa Julia Tardio-It's a tropical vacation in a glass without the hassle of the airport or highways.
  • For the Hopheads in your life: Flat12 Bierwerks Half Cycle IPA-go local with a 6 pack!
