... for a bit. I still felt it when I woke up the next day. I *hope* that means I did big magic. I finished the rest of it last night and felt great, still do. Yesterday we also racked our oaked wine into bottles. Yeild: 2 and half cases. We still have a few carboys of unsulfited wine left to rack, but this is a great start! We reuse our old bottles over and over, so it takes a while to save enough ...

Mid way through, as the wine got a little warmer, there was a tart,... it was clearly Chardonnay. I think it would be better if it were properly oaked or completely un-oaked.

... so depressing and uplifting at the same time? 2. Last night, I attended the Portland Holiday Ale Fest and drank beers called "Tannen Bomb", "Blitzen" (my favorite of the night) "Drunkel" and "Oaked St. Nick". Other eye catchers? "Sled Crasher", "Hibernation Ale", "Kronan the Barbarian", "Olde Gnarley Wine", "Brewdolph", "Elvin Conspiracy", "Very Ill-Tempered Gnome", "Bad Santa" etc. etc. etc....

Regional Wine Week: Minnesota

... Meritage has the taste of a wine which will improve with time. It the bite of a bit of tannin, even though it has been oaked. I would say it is medium bodied. Cannon River Red is also oaked and is much smoother, even as a new wine. The Cannon River Reserve, I paid a bit more attention to. It indeed was full ...

Originally published at GeekBeer . Please leave any comments there. Seattle Beer Week is over for me, but beering continues!

This week we broke out three beers aged with oak, including the Oak Aged Unearthly IPA from Southern Tier, who seems to be a newcomer to the Northwest, all of which ...

Biodynamic Whining

... of the evening was the Macon that we tried first. It’s not often that I actively like a white wine and this is the first since the last tasting I went to (at Carluccio’s – a Planeta very oaked Chardonnay which may still be my favourite white of all time), which suggests that I’m just rubbish at selecting whites for myself… Anyways, the event was pretty good, with a bit of banter in the room ...
