Discretion Brewery

This a an absolute must! The beer is not only amazing but they have organic food that is so tasty you will never want to leave! My favorite beer is the IPA Uncle Daves. I am not an IPA beer drinker and this beer is so good and flavorful that I could drink it by the gallon. As the days pass they are adding more and more tasty bites and new beers! So if your around 41st ave…..heck if your anywhere near Santa Cruz this is a must seek and try.

Fabulous B&B

After our few days of tasting in the Finger Lakes Doc and I took a road trip to visit more family in Vermont. I booked a B&B on the web prior to our arrival. We were throughly pleased and delighted with my choice! Dream Country Inn is owned and run by Sue and George. Right from the start you feel welcome and at home. Beautiful views with a ton of trees and little areas to relax around the porch. The bed was huge and like a big comfy inviting marshmallow! They truly go out of their way to make your stay exceptional. Part of the amazing experience is Sue’s breakfasts. She is a foodie with great cooking talent! I can not say enough about our stay. If you are ever in Vermont this is a MUST stay!

Lincoln Peak Vineyard

On our way to Boston we stopped as recommended by Sue from the Dream House Country Inn at Lincoln Peak. Good sized tasting room with a great view of wilderness and a pond. Mostly whites with two reds and two dessert wines. I enjoyed the whites but my favorite due to uniqueness was their rosé (Heartwood 2012). Complex with a hint of sweetness. Flavors of raspberry and black cherry-ish. We ended up getting a glass of it to share and snacked on some Vermont cheese. It went exceptionally well with the spicy cheddar. I can imagine it would go great on a hot day with a spicy BBQ lunch.
