Twisted Tuesays

Tuesday Night is Girls night around here. Tonight on the menu...




Marqués de Cáceres
A dry white wine that pairs very well with a nice pasta dinner.



Followed by a nice sweet Riesling. This one, Chateau Ste Michelle, is a particular favorite of mine. The transition was to go from dinner to dessert but Riesling is a great for sipping as well. It's sweet and mild so most will enjoy a glass.








And lastly a Port. Marsala Wine from Sicily.



Ports can take you by surprise. This is a type of wine that is combined with a brandy like liquor to stop the fermentation process. It has a warm taste but can be a bit much for those not prepared.

Now after a few glasses of wine, Corpus has a great Tuesday night scene believe it or not. First off to Executive Surf Club for some live music and the $2 pints.
Executive has a good mix of people ranging from the college crowd up to those having a few drinks with the coworkers. One of my favorite staples of the group is an older man that can be seen dancing away in the front of the stage.
Next Fire on Water to sing a little karaoke. Specials are three dollar Jagger and Patron. Plus the bar is always a good spot for reasonably priced beers.
Finally my last stop of the night brought us to Dr. Rockets Blue Bar. The music is an amazing way to end the night and with seven dollar pitchers you can't go wrong.
