Mott brings thunder to the Thunder show!

QOTD: Freixenet cava, Cordon Negro is lovely for eleven bones. I served some with a cucumber and yogurt soup with dill and mint the other night. It went over well.

As a life long Packers fan, you forgot the interception somewhere in that drive.

I’m all about beer when it comes to sparkling Beverages. Infact, I even like beer more than Champagne (even grower’s champagne), cava, moscato, prosecco, or any sparkling wine. Butttt, I definetly like red and white wine more than any beer.

Great job of not zooming into Mott’s face! Thanks for this new info, and I’ll definitely try it at my next event.

QOTD: Fizzy grapes. You’ve got to try them to understand.

Another great show!

I’ve been hoping that you did Moscato d’Asti for a while now. It’s good stuff. I love that you pour it all over your dates. Awesome.

QOTD: The neon yellow flavor of All-Sport.

QOTD: I don’t have a good answer for this. Don’t really love carbonation, though I do enjoy Moscatos.

Ah… I’ve been waiting for this episode since you did it on ustream. I’m all about the Moscato d’ Asti!!!

QOTD: Diet Code Red Mountain Dew… But if we’re talking bubbly wines, Moscato d’ Asti is it for me, man. They sell a bottle called Marco Negri at the local grocery. It’s inexpensive and it’s an awesome summer drink. I always know I’m in the wife’s good graces when she brings me home a bottle…

Yay, a close-up of Mott’s head!

QotD: Not really a fan of carbonated drinks, the bubbles fill me up too much. But a good craft brewed beer is pretty good I guess.
