Wine Tasting with Dale Beers
In this episode listeners will join Lacey in conversation with our Ely, Minnesota friend and neighbor Dale Beers. If you’ve ever enjoyed a glass of wine at Northern Grounds on the corner of Central and Sheridan Street in Ely, Minnesota, you’ve likely interacted with our Dale. He is a former suit wearing city-slicker and chef who traded in the fast life for a pair of skis and a fishing pole. In his pseudo-retirement, Dale has made a name for himself as our local winemonger. Not only does he offer trustworthy advice from behind the bar, he’s also often the brains behind Northern Grounds’ wine tasting events.
