From Mantra Artisan Ales:

In early 2015, brewers Derrick Morse and Chad Frost set their sights on historic Franklin, Tennessee as the home of Mantra Artisan Ales. Derrick, out of Boulder, Colorado had been brewmaster of a local brewpub for the past few years, creating a complex array of intricate beers earning him the nickname of “mad scientist.”

Chad returned to Franklin from a professional brewing program in Berlin, Germany. With the news that a local brewery would be vacating their facility to expand, Morse and Frost jumped the opportunity. Joining forces with chef Maneet Chauhan, the Mantra team set out to create premium, worldly-inspired artisan beers.

Bonanza by Chuck Wagner Cabernet Sauvignon
(Lodi, California)
Medium ruby-red, this wine opens with scents of currants and dried roses, grape pomace, and freshly tilled soil. The nose is nuanced with toasty oak imparting a subtle smoked meat character. Flavors of blueberries and blackberries mix with the warmth of vanilla and toasted bread. Silky tannins and striking smoothness. Mouthwatering, lengthy finish trails off with the taste of unsweetened chocolate and cassis.

Moonlight Meadery Tasting Saturday!
 
This Saturday, we will have the folks from Moonlight Meadery in the store to let you sample their meads!  
 
From the Meadery:

Moonlight Meadery’s founder, Michael Fairbrother, has been perfecting his meadmaking skills since 1995. 

Our world class meads and ciders are crafted with passion and love. 

All of our honey is True Source Certified. The True Source Certification guarantees that our honey comes from real bee keepers that ethically source their honey. Every shipment of honey we receive is fully traceable back to the hives of origin. 

Our fruit ingredients are sourced locally and sustainably. If there are no local options available (mangoes don’t grow in NH… yet) then we find the highest quality available to us. We use whole fruits when possible, if none are available then we use fruit purées or juices. 

Our founder Michael Fairbrother has used the same yeast strain for over 21 years of meadmaking, Lalvin 71B. This white wine yeast strain produces incredibly smooth alcohols and can ferment up to roughly 17% ABV. The yeast makes all the magic happen, it is our job to ensure they have the ideal environment to do their work. 

Stop in between 2 & 6 pm and find your favorite!
Rua Port Finish Cask Strength Whiskey Single Barrel Tasting Saturday!
This weekend, we will have a representative from Rua in the shop to let you sample our brand new Rua Single Barrel Whiskey!

From the distillery:

This single malt whiskey begins with non-GMO organic barley that has been distilled four times in a Copper Kothe still, cut to barrel strength with spring water from the Blue Ridge Mountains and patiently aged in 25 gallon American oak barrels. When the time comes to harvest, we cut to bottle strength with more of that beautiful spring water. Non-chill filtered, Rua features beautiful notes of vanilla and caramel complemented by a full body with notes of fresh baked bread and praline before a long, sweet finish.

Stop in between & 7p and give this delicious whiskey a try!
