the greatest director of the last 50 years, Francis Ford Coppola. From Apocalypse
Now, to The Godfather parts 1 & 2 ( we'll consider part 3 a momentary lapse
of any common sense)Coppola has shaped the movie going experience as well as
the wine industry in NapaValley. The following
three are some of the best he has to offer.

spicy-floral hop component. 5.3% ABV

Old Chub
Old Chub is a Scottish style ale brewed with copious amounts of crystal
and chocolate malts, and a dash of beechwood-smoked malts. The cola-colored
beer features a dense, tawny head, a creamy mouthful and flavors of caramel,
chocolate and lightly roasted malt. Complex and rich, it finishes with a
whisper of smokiness that calls to mind a fine single malt scotch. 8% ABV
By
the Glass: $6
Ten Fidy
Ten FIDY Imperial stout is a
titanic wonder of a stout, immensely viscous, and loaded with neck-deep flavors
of chocolate, malt, coffee, cocoa and oats. It’s the beer equivalent of
decadently rich milkshake made with Whoppers malted-milk balls and Heaven’s
best chocolate ice cream. Ten FIDY is about 10% ABV and is made with enormous
amounts of two-row malts, chocolate malts, roasted barley, flaked oats and hops.
