Monday, April 20, 2009. The Sisson Family Fund Raiser. Will be held on May 8, 2009, at Bedell Cellars. In Cutchogue, New York. Ben Sisson was a pioneering Long Island vineyard manager and his passing is a loss to the wine community. He died at the far-too-young age of 49, and leaves behind a wife and two young girls. If you can, send it to Lenn Thompson of Lenndevours.

A place to relax, have a drink, and talk about policy ideas. Continuing a look at policy issues as they stood at the end of 2011 and where we stand today, there are several areas where a cloudy world in 2011 is still cloudy today, though in new and strange ways.

Also, we plan on having contests for bar tabs in various cities and constantly updating information on your local bars.

We are the Blue Mountain Cider families, proudly carrying on the agricultural traditions put in place decades ago by the Earl Brown family. Those traditions include best practices for the environment and giving customers our fullest attention. Our hard ciders, while huge with flavor, contain less alcohol than wine and are less filling than beer. We use only apples grown in the renowned Walla Walla Valley, many from Earl Brown Family orchards.
