This is just awesome!

Lunacy Belgian-Style Golden Ale
Lunacy is brewed exclusively with Belgian Pilsner malt, Styrian and English Goldings hops and freshly ground coriander. It begins its life with a long patient boil and is cast into the fermenter at 17.5 P. It then undergoes a vigorous fermentation and extended cold conditioning. After bottling, the beer receives an additional 2 week warm rest before it is released. This yields a surprisingly refreshing brew with spicy notes, sweet malt and subtle fruit. 7.7% ABV

Nothing says summer like a mojito or a caipirinha. The lime is a wonderful fruit

Never had cherry wine. Do they make a raspberry?

[Wasch_24]

No idea.

It was the Cherry Festival up there, hence the Cherry wine.

Boone's makes a good strawberry wine.


Well it's good, if what you're trying to attract are freshman sorority girls.

Nah, this isn't cheap convenience store stuff...it comes from real vineyards up there. :nono:

I know, I was just messin' with ya. Fruit wines and beers can be really good if done right and with simple ingredients (no weird additives)

[caudio51]

Frambroise is a great fruit beer. Definitely reccomend picking up a bottle to try. Get some good chocolate to go with it

I saw a special on CNN about that Cherry Festival. It's pretty cool everything they can make with cherries in it.
