New Beers on Draft: Now on Draft: vox pop customer favorite: DOGFISH HEAD 60 Minute IPA Nice golden color- the head was amazing- about a half inch- very fluffy and light. Smelled of citrusy hops- very potent and fresh- almost zesty. The 60 Min hops are quite distinct- more sweet than bitter. -A Reviewer on BeerAdvocate.com Also: Wheat Beer: Widmer Hefeweizen Gaffel Kolsch (Koln, Germany) >> Sixpoint Craft Ale (Brooklyn's Pride!)

New Organic Wine List White 2006 Terra Savia Unoaked Chardonnay    Sanel Valley Vineyards is located in the southern most wine-growing region along the Russian River in beautiful Mendocino, CA.    They practice fish-friendly farming (no run off into the river).  They also enable land conservation and set aside a balanced amount of land for wildlife, which is showcased on their label.      Fresh and clean because the wine is never in contact with oak barrels.     2005 Chateau Meric Graves Bordeaux   This is a blend of two varietals:  Sauvignon Blanc and Semillon   This Chateau belongs to the Barron Family, where they have  been harvesting organic grapes since 1964.    Red   2005 Terra Savia Merlot  Smooth and subtle, with hints of black cherries, berries, cassis, and vanilla. The vanilla is present because this wine is aged in American oak.    2004 Minola Barbera  This wine is made from Biodynamic Grapes grown in Northern Italy. Biodynamic agriculture involves holistic development of the soil through composts contrived of the immediate terroir's plants and animals.  -  Biodynamic farming also involves the attention to the astronomical calendar.   Dessert  Heaven on Earth Organic sweet wine  $22.oo/ btl (not sold by the glass)  This South African wine is made from sun-dried grapes.  The grapes are laid on organic rooibos tea leaves and straw to be dried.  - Try it with the new homemade Tiramisu!

Gaffel Kolsch (Cologne, Germany)   The laws protecting the brewing of Kolsch are as strict as Germany's Purity Law of 1516. Kolsch Beer can only be brewed within the city of Cologne. As the best-known Kolsch Brewery, Gaffel's flavor is derived from an ale yeast that is "lagered" or aged in cold cellars. Gaffel is pale and faintly fruity with a crisp hop finish.   The city of Cologne or Koln is located on the Rhine River and north of Munich. In Koln, Germany's third largest city, Kolsch beer is nearly the only beer people drink. Gaffel Kolsch is the favorite of Koln.   What makes Gaffel Kolsch so special?   Like Champagne in France, authentic Kolsch beer can only come from Koln. No other beer in the world has the taste of an ale and a lager. Gaffel Kolsch is light and refreshing but not with an intense hop finish. Gaffel is distinctive and elegant; served in the traditional Kolsch glass.   Gaffel's light and refreshing taste compliments almost all foods. Gaffel Kolsch is perfect for special gatherings. It is superbly drinkable and subtle without being too filling.
