The Beers
Night Shift Brewing Nite Lite, 4 pack 16 oz $9.99
4.3% ABV.
Low ABV and easy-sipping, Nite Lite is a truly delicious craft light lager that will pair all night with every party. The beer pours sunny gold with a soft, white head. Aromas of fresh bread on the nose. Sips crisp and refreshing, with hints of biscuit and citrus. Finishes clean and light, inviting another sip. Only 120 calories
Center of The Universe. Chameleon, 4 pack 12 oz $15.996.8% ABV
Brewers will use different hop blends for each version of the Chameleon India Pale Ale, while maintaining a consistent grain bill. Because of the wide range of hop varieties, the beer's aroma and taste will change with each version.
And so will the color of the cans.
Using colors to differentiate the versions rather than numbers, says co-owner Chris Ray, allows the brewery to repeat a beer. And by making smaller-batch IPAs, says his brother and co-owner Phil Ray, they can access scarce specialty hops.
Jack's Abby Shipping Out Of Boston, 4 pack 16 oz. $11.99
ABV: 5.3%
Malty, sweet, and lightly hoppy amber lager.
Jack's Abby Post Shift, 4 pack 16 oz. $11.99ABV: 4.7%
Brewed with Bavarian malt and hops, this everyday Pilsner is bright, crisp and refreshing.
We think it’s the perfect way to end the work day.

Adami Garbel Prosecco, NV $17.99
Garbel in the ancient local dialect means "crisp and dry".
This wine has a fine, delicate bead, youthful, fruity aromas, and a palate that is smooth, rounded, and dry.
It is an extremely versatile sparkling wine, to be enjoyed at any time of day.
Santa Barbara Verdicchio $19.99If bitter lime notes from more familiar grapes like Grüner Veltliner and coastal Vermentino appeal to you, this low-alcohol, youthful bianco will readily rinse your palate clean and complement delicate fare like crudo and Meyer lemon risotto.
Crivelli Ruche' $21.99
Ruchè is a beauty of an indigenous Piedmontese red variety, and Crivelli's is a must-try. An array of aromas to savor: roses, pepper, black cherries, and cinnamon. Lovely fresh acidity and a fine backbone of mineral make this a delicate wine to enjoy any time. Marco Maria Crivelli is one of a small group of farmers who fervently believe in the excellence of Piedmont's "other" grape varieties, indigenous to the province of Asti. His ancestors planted five hectares of vineyards in 1919; these vines grow in mineral-rich sand and tufa soils.
La Historia Di Italia, Guicciardini $39.99This “Super Tuscan” wine is named as an homage to one of the Guicciardini ancestors, Francesco Guicciardini, whose ‘Historia di Italia’ (1490-1534) is considered a pioneering work of the on the great works of the Renaissance. This vintage of 100% Merlot, and is powerful and ripe. Aromatics of black cherry with herb and oak spice accents. Juicy acidity is followed by a velvety texture mid-palate and well-mannered tannins.
