About Tips On Beer & Tips On Wine

Within The Art of Waiting Tables not only do I show and tell much about waiting on tables, but also provide a good look at what beverages are common in American restaurants.

Under Tips On Beer I provide such basic knowledge for servers and anyone who wants to know.
Just click on Tips On Beer to find info on Ale, Lager, Mead, Beer history and German Beer and more.

Tips On Wine is not a wine buyer's guide, nor does it attempt to list all the world's famous wines grown all over the world, from South Africa to the upper Rhine in Germany, the Crimea to California, Australia.

All I'm trying to do is to provide usable basic information as to what one may expect from a certain wine.

The descriptions of varietals within Tips On Wine are very much telling about the typical characteristics of the particular wine grape.
Please be aware that aside from such typical taste belonging to each individual grape variety, the climate, rain or artificial rain, sun shine, fog, frost and soil have a great influence on quality and flavor.
Great differences in a grape's sweetness are created by the harvesting time. Early harvest provides sour tasting grapes, excellent for a dry wines. Nevertheless the same grape variety harvested late, just before the grapes fall of the wines will create a sugar rich, musty flavor.
After considering every thing else, the winemaker may be able to create special flavors by using dosages, by blending wine from several vineyards or adding flavor. Not to forget the use of special barrels for the fermentation such too will add flavors to the socalled typical taste.

Keep such in mind as you click on the Tips On Wine to answer your questions, such as: "What is a Cabernet Sauvignon like?"
