10 New Year’s Sparklers

Ring in 2018 with class by popping the cork on a magnum of sparkling ale. The stunning Deus Brut des Flanders (LCBO 613367, 750 mL, $19.95) is brewed in Belgium and then sent to France’s Champagne region for riddling. It’s a crisp, dry stunner with notes of sourdough. Or toast with a bottle of Goose Island Sofie (LCBO 331298, 765 mL, $10.15), a hazy golden saison that has notes of pome fruit, white peppercorn and zippy acidity. Stay local with Beau’s New Lang Syne (LCBO 448621, 750 mL, $16.00) a Pinot Gris-barrel-aged tripel packing a tropical fruit punch.
