Another Sharp eyed Viewer

Thanks for sending the scan.

This article appeared in Edmonton's September/October City Palate magazine. p.s. we have no idea who Jim Abbott is but if you know him call us, we would love a picture of him...

2 coincidences

Both of these are from 2 weeks ago but we had some web issues so we are backtracking a bit

First, we had two new stores pick us up:
Hinton Liquor Store 125 JASPER Street, Hinton
&
Wines & Spirits Warehouse 11452 JASPER Ave, Edmonton
Thanks so much to all involved for picking up the line. Did you notice... two new stores... both on Jasper.... (ok not a super coincidence but kind of neat)

Second
While visiting the Reynolds Alberta Museum (http://www.machinemuseum.net/) to see the history of the motorcycle we stumbled upon this photo, sort of the centerpeice for the exibit.

















Now look at this one. One of ours that was earmarked for use on phase 2 of the website...









Judging by the men in the picture (the Edmonton Motorcycle club in 1929) these picture were taken just seconds apart...

That's a coincidence...

In the Media

Apparently we appeared in this month's City Palate magazine in Edmonton. Can anyone send us a scan?

Any help would be appreciated.
Tasting at the SHAW Center in Downtown Edmonton

We had a tasting last week with a one hour window. there were over 1700 people there. We served over 250 samples in that time, then we cleaned up and joined in the dinner.


All we can say is wow. If you ever get a chance to take part in the "FEASTival of Fine Chefs" it is one of the most amazing culinery experiences you will be able to take part in (whoops, ended that sentence in a preposition).



So go here http://www.afpa.com/pro/feast.shtml and have alook around.

The AFPA sure knows how to throw a party.
What a crazy last few weeks it has been

We have been developing a number of new flavours and are actively seeking "tasters". If you are interested just email us at jim@ambersbrewing.com...

One nevers knows where such things will lead.
