Holiday Wrap-Up

One current internet meme suggests that it's just about time for the men to start their holiday shopping. We'll dedicate today's blog post to everyone who still has a little bit of shopping left to do (That includes your blogger. See you at the Lawrenceville store later today).

If you've giving bottles of wine, beer or spirits as gifts, there is a special deal at the Lawrenceville store right now. Buy any three single-bottle paper wine gift bags, and receive two free.

Both of our stores (if you're new to our blog, we refer to the Joe Canal's in Lawrenceville and Woodbridge) will be open until 10pm tonight. Both stores will open at 8am tomorrow, and close at 7pm. Both stores will be closed on Christmas Day. We return to normal business hours on Saturday.

Champagne and sparkling wine recommendations. The holidays are full of perfectly good excuses to have responsibly enjoy sparkling wine every day. For an assortment of staff-approved bubbly, click here, here, here, here, and here.

Wine recommendations. We have offered a number of great ideas for wine to give as gifts or to enjoy with your holiday dinners. To review, click here, here, or here.

Craft Beer recommendations. Some craft beers are delivered in such small quantities that they're gone before the information even reaches our desk. Get to know our beer team, and they'll make sure you have insider knowledge. Follow us on Twitter as well, as we publish lots of information there. For instance, yesterday we got a shipment of Sam Adams White Christmas, and we announced it via Twitter. We also published a coupon for that beer, which you can find here (coupon is valid at both stores).

For our other craft beer recommendations, click here, here, here, and here. Please remember that seasonal craft beer is produced in limited quantities, for a specific period of time, and is therefore subject to availability.

Cheese. Don't forget that both stores have a nice selection of Di Bruno Bros. cheeses, spreads, and other snack items. We like to suggest a cheese, spread or meat along with our featured email item, because those pairings are so natural. Our selections range from simple (cheddar) to interesting (Cotswold, Maytag Blue and others), to match any palate.



Thank you for shopping with us during this holiday season. We know there are other stores, and we appreciate your choosing Joe Canal's.
