The Mikuni Blended Japanese Whisky
Japanese Whisky
Amber and gently full in appearance, with dried-fruit sweetness and a faint smoky accent on the nose. The palate begins youthful and lively, then settles into a rounded, mellow texture built from malt and grain whisky. Subtle oak and a measured spice note add definition through the finish, which lingers lightly on the tongue. Serve neat, over a single cube, or lengthened with chilled soda in a clean highball.
The Irony Spirits Cranberry Euphoria Semi-Sweet Liqueur 375 mL
Canadian Liqueur
Bright cranberry brings tart red-fruit freshness to a smooth, semi-sweet palate. A hint of rosemary adds a savoury herbal lift, giving the berry character more definition and keeping the finish from becoming heavy. The texture is rounded but lively, with a clean balance between fruit, sweetness and gentle botanical detail. Serve well chilled after dinner, pour over ice, or add a small measure to sparkling wine for a crisp aperitif.
The Irony Spirits The Booster Shot Serrano Pepper Spirit 375 mL
Canadian Other Spirits
Serrano pepper gives this semi-dry aperitif a vivid, warming bite, balanced by the sweeter character of red bell pepper. Italian strawflower and lime leaves add aromatic lift and a fresh citrus-herbal edge, keeping the palate lively rather than aggressive. The finish is bold, clean and savoury. Serve well chilled or over ice, or use a small measure to sharpen a Caesar, Margarita or another cocktail that benefits from controlled heat.
Temporal Artisan Ales Two Threads Barrel-Aged Barleywine 330 mL
Canadian Beer
Rich malt and caramel form the centre of this layered barleywine, joined by dark fruit and a lightly sherried oxidative note from its mature component. Bourbon and rye-whiskey barrels add vanilla, oak and measured spice, while a younger portion contributes freshness and firm bitterness. The blend feels deep without becoming static, finishing warm and persistent. Serve cool in a small glass with aged cheddar, blue cheese, roast beef, pecan tart or dark chocolate.
Temporal Artisan Ales Relative Dimensions Barrel-Aged Strong Ale
Canadian Beer
Dark fruit and caramel from a Belgian-style quadrupel meet the deeper malt weight of a Munichwine base. Tawny-port barrel ageing adds a rounded, vinous richness, while rye-whiskey oak brings dry spice and structure. The palate is concentrated but composed, moving from raisin and toffee toward seasoned wood and a warming, gently bitter finish. Serve cool in a small glass with braised beef, blue cheese, fruitcake or dark chocolate.
Temporal Artisan Ales Infinite Syzygy Bourbon Barrel-Aged Barleywine
Canadian Beer
Deep brown and full-bodied, with caramel, toffee and molasses framing concentrated dried fruit. Bourbon-barrel ageing adds vanilla, seasoned oak and a gentle leather note, while restrained carbonation keeps the texture broad and smooth. The sweetness is substantial but not shapeless, carried by roast and barrel structure into a long, warming finish. Serve cool in a small glass with aged cheddar, blue cheese, braised beef, sticky toffee pudding or dark chocolate.
Temporal Artisan Ales Expanding Fractals Bourbon Barrel-Aged Belgian Quadrupel 330 mL
Canadian Beer
Dark candi sugar, piloncillo and jaggery build a deep, molasses-like sweetness over a rich Belgian-style malt base. Extended bourbon-barrel ageing adds vanilla, seasoned oak and warming spice, while expressive abbey yeast brings dried-fruit complexity. Despite its concentration, the finish remains structured, with barrel character and gentle bitterness keeping the dark sweetness in balance. Serve cool in a small glass with braised beef, blue cheese, pecan tart or dark chocolate.
Temporal Artisan Ales A Hand at Dusk Barrel-Aged Plum Saison
Canadian Beer
A slightly hazy orange-gold colour introduces a lively, mixed-culture saison with a softly funky aroma and clear plum character. The palate is bright and tart, combining juicy red fruit with grainy farmhouse depth and a touch of rye. Gentle carbonation keeps the texture composed, while a persistent sour-plum finish adds energy and definition. Serve cool with roast duck, pork, washed-rind cheese or a grain salad dressed with herbs and citrus.
Tamanohikari Blue Fox Mane-Kitsune Junmai Ginjo Sake
Japanese Sake
Apple and melon give the aroma a fresh, lightly floral lift, joined by cooked rice, subtle honey and a quiet nutty note. The palate is medium-dry and clean, with refreshing acidity balancing a savoury core of rice umami. A light, sharp finish keeps the profile precise rather than rich. Serve chilled with sushi, sashimi, grilled fish, tempura or savoury snacks; gentle warmth can bring the rice character forward with heartier dishes.
Takashima Homare Fuji Special Junmai Sake
Japanese Sake
Soft rice sweetness and a refreshing aroma lead into a medium-bodied palate with generous umami. The texture is full without feeling heavy, balanced by light crispness and a clean, refined finish. Its savoury depth makes it especially versatile at the table. Serve chilled or gently warmed with grilled fish, yakitori, mushrooms, tempura or soy-braised dishes, where the rice character and acidity can complement rather than dominate the food.
Sundown Beer x Boombox Brewing Mystical Machine Double Hoppy Hefeweizen 473 mL
Canadian Beer
A full wheat-beer base carries the soft fruit and spice of hefeweizen yeast, while Loral, Citra and Amarillo hops add bright citrus, floral lift and a firmer aromatic edge. The palate is substantial yet smooth, with lively hop character balancing the rounded grain. A gently bitter finish keeps the richness in check. Serve cool with roast chicken, grilled sausages, spicy noodles or washed-rind cheese, where the beer's weight and freshness can work together.
Liquore Strega
Italian Liqueur
Saffron gives this Italian herbal liqueur its golden colour and a distinctive savoury warmth. Mint and juniper bring freshness, while cinnamon, iris and layered herbs create a fragrant, gently sweet palate with a softly spiced finish. The texture is smooth and composed, allowing the botanicals to unfold without becoming heavy. Serve neat or over ice after dinner, or use a small measure to add herbal depth to a citrus-led cocktail.
The Strait & Narrow Pear Rhubarb Gin Cocktail 355 mL
Canadian Ready-To-Drink
Ripe pear brings a soft, rounded fruit character, sharpened by the tart edge of Fraser Valley rhubarb. A custom gin base adds subtle botanical lift, while lively carbonation keeps the palate refreshing and clean.

Serve thoroughly chilled, or pour over ice with a thin pear slice alongside charcuterie, roast pork, fresh salads or creamy cheese.
The Strait & Narrow Peach Elderflower Gin Cocktail 355 mL
Canadian Ready-To-Drink
Juicy peach gives the palate a soft stone-fruit centre, lifted by the delicate floral character of British Columbia elderflower. A custom gin base adds gentle botanical definition, while sparkling water keeps the texture bright, crisp and easy to drink. The finish is clean and lightly fragrant rather than sweet or heavy. Serve thoroughly chilled on its own, or pour over ice with a peach slice and pair with grilled prawns, fresh salads or mild cheese.
St. George Bruto Americano
American Liqueur
Vibrant citrus leads the aroma, backed by cinnamon, sandalwood and fresh fir. The palate opens with decisive gentian bitterness before moving into an herbaceous, woodsy centre shaped by Seville orange, balsam fir and California buckthorn. Light, dry and layered rather than sweet, it closes with a lingering bitter-citrus finish. Serve over ice with soda and orange, or use in a Negroni, Americano or spritz for a distinctly botanical edge.
St. Petroni Vermu Branco 1 L
Spanish Fortified
Pale gold and aromatic, with crisp Albariño fruit opening into citrus peel, white flowers and a clean herbal lift. Laurel and wormwood add savoury depth, while Padrón pepper brings a subtle warmth that sharpens the gently rounded texture. The finish is fresh, persistent and lightly bitter. Serve chilled over ice with lemon, lengthen with soda, or use in a bright aperitif cocktail alongside olives, shellfish or salted almonds.
St. Bernardus Abt 12
Belgian Beer
Dark and full-bodied, with a creamy texture and a generous fruit-led aroma shaped by expressive yeast. The palate is rich yet remarkably rounded, balancing gentle sweetness with measured bitterness and layers of dark fruit, caramel and warm spice. A long bittersweet finish provides definition and keeps the weight composed. Serve cool with braised beef, game, blue cheese or dark chocolate, all of which can meet the beer's depth and intensity.
Soma Craft Cidery Blueberry Oak Apple Cider
Canadian Cider
Fresh blueberry gives the aroma a floral, gently tart lift, while crisp Okanagan apple keeps the palate bright and refreshing. American oak adds a delicate savoury note and quiet structure without obscuring the fruit.

Serve well chilled with roast pork, grilled sausages, firm cheese or a berry-led salad.
Small Gods Brewing Co. Empire of Ideas Lemon Ginger Hefeweizen
Canadian Beer
Zesty lemon opens with clean citrus lift, followed by fresh ginger and the soft grain of a light wheat-beer base. Classic hefeweizen yeast brings gentle fruit and spice, while the ginger adds definition without dominating the palate. The finish is lively, refreshing and lightly warming. Serve cold with sushi, grilled prawns, Thai salads, roast chicken or mild curry, where the lemon and ginger can sharpen the food without overwhelming it.
Small Gods Brewing Co. Daughters of Silence Coffee Wafer Blonde Ale
Canadian Beer
A biscuity blonde-ale base carries fresh roasted coffee in a surprisingly light, composed frame. Soft malt and wafer-like sweetness meet the coffee’s darker edge, while a small amount of lactose rounds the texture into a smooth, creamy finish. The result is roasty without the weight of a stout. Serve cool with brunch, tiramisu, shortbread, nutty cheese or vanilla ice cream, where the coffee and biscuit notes can find a natural echo.
Sharpe Distillery Pisqu 375 mL
Canadian Brandy
Honey and fresh grape give the palate a gently sweet opening, followed by earthy notes that recall a cool wine cellar and damp oak. The texture is creamy and substantial, with red pepper and warm spice building toward the finish. Fruit remains present beneath the savoury detail, keeping the spirit balanced and distinctive. Serve neat in a small glass, add a little water, or use in a Pisco Sour where its grape, earth and pepper can remain clear.
Schneider’s Bayrisch Hell Helles Lager
German Beer
Bright straw-yellow and clear, this Bavarian lager balances soft bready malt with delicate floral and grassy hop notes. Hints of honey and lemon add quiet detail without changing its clean, traditional shape. The palate is smooth and gently rounded, finishing crisp, snappy and refreshing. Serve cold with roast chicken, sausages, schnitzel, pretzels or mild cheeses, where the restrained malt and hop balance can remain front and centre.
Sandbagger Transfusion Vodka Cocktail 355 mL
Canadian Ready-To-Drink
Concord grape gives this vodka cocktail a vivid, fruit-forward opening, sharpened by the crisp spice of ginger ale. The palate is balanced and refreshing rather than heavy, with fine carbonation carrying the grape and ginger into a clean finish. Serve thoroughly chilled or over ice with a lime wedge. It suits barbecue, burgers, spicy chicken wings or salty snacks, where the bright fruit and ginger can offer an easy counterpoint.
Ryes & Shine Pumpkin Spice Moonshine 50 mL
Canadian Liqueur
Warm cinnamon rises first, followed by smooth pumpkin and a soft sweep of autumn spice. The palate is rounded and gently sweet, with enough spirit warmth to keep the flavours clear rather than confectionary. A mellow, cinnamon-led finish makes this an easy after-dinner pour. Serve lightly chilled, add to hot coffee or use as a small accent in an Old Fashioned; pumpkin pie, shortbread and roasted nuts are natural partners.
Ryes & Shine Pumpkin Spice Moonshine
Canadian Liqueur
Ripe pumpkin gives the palate a smooth, gently rounded centre, while cinnamon brings warm aromatic lift. The spice is measured rather than sharp, allowing the soft fruit and warming spirit base to remain balanced through the finish. Serve lightly chilled, over ice or warmed gently with apple cider. It also works naturally in an autumn Old Fashioned, a creamy coffee cocktail or alongside pumpkin pie, ginger cake and toasted pecans.
Ryes & Shine After Dark Coffee Liqueur 50 mL
Canadian Liqueur
Cold-brew coffee leads with a deep roasted aroma and smooth, velvety texture. A touch of caramel rounds the darker coffee notes, while the potato-vodka base keeps the palate clean and composed. Gentle warmth builds through the finish, leaving coffee, caramel and subtle toasted sweetness behind. Serve lightly chilled, pour over ice or vanilla ice cream, or use in an Espresso Martini, White Russian or coffee-led Old Fashioned where its roasted character can remain distinct.
Antica Distilleria Russo Nocino Walnut Liqueur
Italian Liqueur
Rich walnut sits at the centre of this traditional Italian liqueur, framed by coffee, nutmeg, cinnamon and clove. The palate is dark, earthy and gently sweet, with a measured bitter undertone giving definition to the warm spice. A long, warming finish carries the walnut and coffee notes without becoming heavy. Serve in a small glass after dinner, pour over vanilla gelato, or use sparingly in an Old Fashioned or Manhattan for added nutty depth.
Rebel 100 Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey
American Whiskey
A sweet opening aroma gives way to a fuller, more forceful palate, with caramel and vanilla at the centre. Wheat softens the grain profile, but the higher proof brings clear warmth and definition rather than simple sweetness. The finish turns dry, leaving caramelized sugar, vanilla and gentle spice behind. Serve neat, with a few drops of water or over a large cube; it also has enough structure for an Old Fashioned or a bourbon-forward Manhattan.
Ravens Brewing Company Old Familiar English Dark Mild 473 mL
Canadian Beer
Deep toffee and caramel lead this malt-focused dark mild, joined by roasted hazelnut and a quiet touch of coffee and cocoa. The palate has enough dark-roast depth to feel complete while remaining smooth, restrained and highly drinkable. A gentle grassy hop note keeps the finish from becoming sweet or heavy. Serve cool rather than icy with sausages, meat pie, mushroom dishes, aged cheddar or roasted nuts, where the beer’s subtle malt detail can remain clear.
Georgian Bay Raspberry Rhubarb Vodka Smash
Canadian Ready-To-Drink
Fresh raspberry brings bright, ripe fruit, while rhubarb adds a tart edge that keeps the palate focused. Lemon lifts the middle, and a smooth Canadian vodka base gives the cocktail a clean, unobtrusive frame. Delicate carbonation carries the fruit into a slightly dry, crisp finish. Serve thoroughly chilled or over ice with a lemon wheel; it pairs neatly with goat cheese, grilled chicken, fish tacos or a summer salad dressed with sharp vinaigrette.
