The Experience, Emeryville: Wondrous Brewing January Brew

The Experience:

Fresh Emeryville beer to start your year!

January started out all about what’s new on tap. Wondrous Brewing’s 2nd batch of ‘Wonder Cut’ is a West Coast IPA 6.4% abv, hopped with Citra, Idaho 07, Nelson & Mosaic, is now on tap. They were just feeling this hop combo on brew day and went with it! Mega fresh fruit and dank citrus on the nose, with the classic, punchy West Coast hop flavor and dry, resinous finish we all love.

They also tapped the final keg in existence of their first ever Barrel Aged Barleywine release ‘When the Poet Dies’. So, get down to your local craft brewery and have a taste or two.

And for those of you who enjoyed their Wondrous Hell beer at the 2024 Celebration of the Arts Opening Night at Public Market – just want you to know that they won the Bronze Award for Wondrous Hell in the category of International Light Lager at the 2024 Great American Beer Festival!

Hang in their fun outside patio where you’ll find community and dogs are welcome. You can order from Los Moles, Good to Eat Dumplings, KYU2 or Rotten City Pizza – all close by.

About Trader Vic’s + the Mai Tai

Decades ahead of his time, Vic ‘The Trader’ Bergeron chose to offer Chinese dishes alongside the then-contemporary Continental cuisine, creating maybe the original fusion menu. Today, Trader Vic’s continues the tradition and still uses the Chinese Wood-fired Ovens featuring dishes from the Mediterranean, the Middle East, Asia, and Japan. And, as we all know, Trader Vic’s claims to be home to the original Mai Tai.

According to the Trader, Vic Bergeron, “In 1944, after success with several exotic rum drinks, I felt a new drink was needed. I was at the service bar in my Oakland restaurant. I took down a bottle of 17-year-old Jamaican J. Wray Nephew rum, added fresh lime, some Orange Curaçao from Holland, a dash of Rock Candy Syrup, and a dollop of French Orgeat, for its subtle flavor. A generous amount of shaved ice and vigorous shaking by hand produced the marriage I was after. Half the lime shell went in for color, I stuck in a branch of fresh mint, and gave two of them to Ham and Carrie Guild, friends from Tahiti, who were there that night. Carrie took one sip and said, “Mai Tai – Roa Ae” In Tahitian means “Out of this World- The Best”. Well, that was that, I named the drink ‘Mai Tai.’”
