Sorry - this product is no longer available

"People have enjoyed apricots since prehistoric times — so long, in fact, that the origin of apricot trees, Prunus armeniaca, is uncertain. Although the scientific name suggests an origin in Armenia some scholars think apricots originated in China. They are now grown around the world where the climate allows. Apricots contribute to a stunning fruit beer: the ripe, aromatic bouquet supports a sweet, summery flavor with just a suggestion of stone-fruit tartness. Samuel Smith's Organic Apricot Ale is rich and full-bodied; the color is a glowing hazy orange." —importer

"Cloudy pale amber color. Richly dimensional dried apricot and apricot pastry aromas and flavors with a tangy fruity-yet-dry medium-to-full body and a zesty peach vinaigrette on mesclun and citrus marmalade on biscuit finish. Delicious and balanced with great tangy apricot flavor." —Beverage Testing Institute

"Intense plum-red color extends to the edge of the glass. Cherries and vanilla on the nose follow through on the palate. This lightly-wooded wine shows hints of spice and has robust tannins which add to its complexity." -winemaker

Lindemans Kriek Lambic Size: 25.4oz

00733
"In origin, this sweet-acidic drink was obtained by adding fresh black cherries to a barrel Lambic of 6 months young. The addition of fruits provokes a new fermentation in the oak barrels. After another 8 to 12 months, only peels and stones are left and the Kriek-Lambic is ready to be filtered and bottled. The residual sugar can be adjusted with straight-on fruit juice to start a refermentation in the bottle. This traditional type of fruit beer is more acidic and less fruity. Because of the limited availability of the Schaerbeekse cherries and so to brew a less sour and more fruity Lambic beer, Lindemans farm brewery developed a unique alternative natural method using pure cherry juice from unfrozen cherries. This straight cherry juice is blended with selected Lambic of different ages. Kriek has a pink-red color and a delicious taste of sparkling cherry champagne. Serve cold at 36 °F." —brewer

"All the lemons we use for Pallini Limoncello come from the Amalfi Coast of Italy, where the best lemons in the world are grown. The renowned Sfustato lemon. We hand-pick every one, then immediately transport them to our distillery in Rome. There we peel the lemons precisely to remove the pure, intense fragrant zest. This is infused in the finest Italian spirit. And the taste? Zesty, tangy, fresh Pallini Limoncello." -producer
