Favourite grape or wine region?

So hard to pick just one! But if I had to, my favourite varietal would be Chardonnay and my favourite wine area would be Northern Italy (for white wines).

What’s one thing that people would be shocked to know about you?

That I was a vegetarian for over 8 years! Shocking.

What song would you pick for karaoke?

The only answer for both karaoke and staff party dances: Livin’ On A Prayer by Mr. Jon Bon Jovi.

Lucas Mader's Picks

Thanksgiving Picks

One of my favourite beers this year. An IPA made with French hops for a more subtle, European vibe, and steeped with green tea harvested from the brewmasters family tea field in Japan. This beer is very well rounded and extremely quaffable, but can also be enjoyed slowly to appreciate the nuances. The French hops lend aromas and flavours of white pepper, alpine herbs, and candied lemon peel that effortlessly blend with herbal and floral notes from the tea. 

This. Beer. Rocks.
