A list of some wines to try

This file list of wines is an informal list of some wines available in liquor stores in Western Newfoundland. Trying different wine is a great way to discover what a grape variety or wine type is susposed to taste like, and whether or not you like it. It can save you money if your planning on buying a $50 wine kit. If you buy a bottle of Chianti and discover you don't like it you're not going to spend the money on a wine kit you'll never drink.

All the wines on this list are between $8 and $15. Please remember, everyone's taste is different, just because I like a wine doesn't mean you will. It may be useful as a guidline if you have not bought much wine.


Beer Recipies

I've had quite a bit of e-mail asking for advice on beer. I don't make a lot of beer, and there are already quite a few sites out there devoted to beer. Regardless, if your looking for a beer recipe here are three which I've found very good. The first is for a Canadian Lager, the second is a Canadian Ale, and the third is an all purpose recipe for Homemade Beer. Please download them and enjoy.
