Matt Hodgson's Picks

Crowd Pleasing + Entertaining


What’s an underrated part of the holidays? Cookies and cocktails.

On their own, they’re already staples at most holiday parties, but together, they’ll be the talk of the event. Refreshingly spicy and sweet, they taste as good as if they were pulled right out of grandma’s oven.

If you’re unfamiliar with Willibald, it’s time to take notice. Since 2017, this first-generation farm distillery and brewery has been making big waves. We’ve been fortunate enough to carry their products for a while now, and they never disappoint. Whether it’s a hoppy IPA or a cocktail, you can bet it’s going to be delicious.
