Looking for...

I was looking through someone else's special liquor order in the back of the state store today and came across Alchemy Ginger Infused Vodka.


I've never seen this before. Has anyone else? I'm going to search for it because you can never have enough ginger flavored spirits!

More to come!

Absolut Rock Edition

The new Absolut Vodka skin will be revealed this Monday (Aug 10th).

Those on the Absolut Collector message boards believe it to be a collector's skin like masquerade and disco.
The rumor is that the unofficial launch is September and the official release will be in December.
Check out these leaked photos!

President Obama's Beer Summit

We've been saying this for years here...beer is a legitimate drink!
Too often beer is religated to a drink exclusivly thought of as a binge drinkers choice or something to just "throw down the hatch" regardless of flavor or pairing potential.

Craft beer, especially in the United States, has really done a great job elevating the whole beverage to compete with wine as a dinner pairing option as well as a drink to savor throughout the night.

The recent "beer summit" put on by President Obama is a great example of how much beer is part of our lives in the U.S. Granted, the choices of beer that those who took part in this talk were not any afficianato's choices! Still, the fact that beer was the chosen beverage...says a lot.

Local Beer expert and blogger, Douglas Derda, talks to KDKA about the "beer summit" -



Check out their blog Should I Drink That? and his BLOG.

If you want to learn more about craft beer and beer in general, check out the Craft Beer School starting September 15 at Theater Square Cabaret. Click HERE for more information and to buy a ticket. The first is hosted by Should I Drink That and the rest are taught by Tony “The Beerman” Knipling. I've worked with Tony on a number of events and I've never met someone more passionate about beer!

Today's Wedding

Today is EASILY the nicest day of the week!

To celebrate Natalie and Negley's wedding (and this sunny Pittsburgh day), we're making a Mango and Mixed Berry Mojito. It's going to be a great summer drink for everyone tonight.

Here's what they layout of the facility will look like today for the reception.

Guests arrive at 5:00pm for the ceremony (which is taking place here).
The ceremony will begin at 5:30pm followed immediately by the cocktail and hors d' oeuvre hour.

The dinner is a elegant four course sit-down dinner followed by a dessert buffet (including the traditional Pittsburgh Cookie display).

We're all looking forward to another great event at Bella Sera!
