Wine Tasting and Thai Sausage Street Food in the Enoteca

Stop by the Goose's Enoteca on Thursday, May 12, 5-7pm when we'll welcome winemaker Richard Bruno. He'll be pouring complimentary sips of his Vinum Cellars White Elephant (a refreshingly sweet-sour blend of chenin, viognier, and rousanne) and his landmark Cabernet Sauvignon (a spicy, satisfying mix of fruit and heat).

To go with Vinum's rare and mouthwatering bottles, we looked to the traditional land of the White Elephant. Sai Ua is a pork sausage layered in flavor with lemongrass, lime leaves, galanga, cilantro, fish sauce, garlic and Thai chillies. Open markets in northern Thailand sell the sausage to eat casually on the street, and it's at home on the table in Laos next to a salad of peanuts, chili, and ginger. (photo by Austin Bush)

During Thursday's tasting, we'll be serving house-made Sai Ua sausage sandwiches with all the traditional condiments in the Enoteca for $5 each! Stop by for a bite and a complimentary sip with the White Elephant's blessing.

Easter Sundries: Lamb, Ham, and Wine for your basket

Egg-ceptional holiday eats from the Goose--order lamb and ham by Tuesday, April 19th!

Carrot sticks and chocolate eggs may fill the kids' baskets, but a little bunny told us you want meat for Easter...and we're all ears.

Terry Knudson has been raising lambs since he was 11 years old. Today, his twin boys, Conner & Hunter, along with his wife Jane work with him at Viking Lamb, their Morristown, Indiana, farm that supplies Indy's best chefs with tender, tasty, all-natural lamb. Chris wrote this recipe for Roasted Leg of Lamb--rich with garlic, rosemary, and a sherry vinegar pan sauce--with Viking Lamb in mind.

Viking Lamb order by April 19th,
pick up beginning April 22nd: 317.924.4944
Bone-in: $7.50/lb
Boned, Rolled, and Tied: $9.00/lb

Fresh, whole rabbit raised all-naturally on Indiana's own Gunthorp Farm is also available and we'd recommend pre-ordering to be sure your Easter bunny is ready and waiting: $9.00/lb--averaging about 3 lbs each.

And because no holiday is complete without pork, the Goose is curing Easter hams from Gunthorp Farms with maple, clove, allspice, juniper berries, and rosemary before we smoke them over fruit woods in our new Mobile Smoke Stack.

Easter Ham order by April 19th,
pick up beginning April 22nd: 317.924.4944
Bone-in $4.75/lb or Boneless $6.50/lb

Call the Goose to reserve your Easter treats (317.924.4944) or hop over to check out the goods!

Founders Brews on Tap
We're pulling out all the stops...but which ones depends on what John brings with him!

Beer-inspired charcuterie and Goose-style beer nuts in the Enoteca
Because nothing goes with beer like nuts and nothing goes with beer nuts like meat.

Yelp Drinks in the Goose's Enoteca

Yelp Drinks! is the first ever "Bar Week" in Indy: 7 Bars, 7 Days, and the Goose's Enoteca is in on the fun. From April 4th - 9th, we're offering a special menu of libations at 50% off! Open to all, from open to close, while supplies last...thirsty?

Yelp Drinks! Week Menu: 50% off these tasty tumblers:
Affogato Dolce: a new twist on our original creation...this time we're "drowning" tart and fruity sorbetto in Italian bubbly...like sunshine on a cloudy day. Regular price $6; Yelp Drinks! price $3

Sake2Me: Okay, okay...silly name, but there's nothing punny about this sparkling, naturally flavored premium sake next to marcona almonds, house-cured olives, or a little Goose meat magic. Regular price $6; Yelp Drinks! price $3

Wurzburger Hofbrau Pils: Founded as the royal court brewery in 1643, Germany's Wurzburger is still brewing today. The mini-keg is ice cold and steins, er, glasses, straight from the tap bring a distinct maltiness with elegant, hoppy bitterness...your Majesty. Regular price: $6; Yelp Drinks! price $3

And on Tuesday evening, April 5, join us for a Yelp event with free music, free food, and free fun. Yelp's own Jon will be dishing starting at 5:30pm (last call at 7:30pm) with some complimentary charcuterie from the Goose's case selected to pair perfectly with the Enoteca's Yelp Drinks! menu. Hungry?
