Why did the Incarnation happen when it did? Dr. Richard Meloche, President of the Alcuin Institute, joins us to discuss this and the Regensburg Address About our drink: Midnight Ritual Fans of Boulevard Unfiltered Wheat Beer will be able to enjoy the iconic ale like never before:  as a whiskey. The collaboration with Iowa-based Foundry Distilling Co. turns nascent Unfiltered Wheat into 89 proof Midnight Ritual, an American malt whiskey. Prior to fermentation, Unfiltered Wheat traveled by tanker from Boulevard’s Kansas City brewery to historic Valley Junction in West Des Moines, Iowa, home of Foundry Distilling Company. After distillation in Foundry’s towering column still and a slumber of more than two years in new 30-gallon #3 charred oak barrels, Midnight Ritual entices with notes of caramel, banana bread, and allspice.

Josef Pieper’s essay on, “Abuse of Language, Abuse of Power” – Let’s discuss! About our drink: Ardbeg “BlaaacK” Ardbeg Blaaack is the feisty Limited Edition bottled in celebration of the 20th Anniversary of the Ardbeg Committee, founded in the year 2000. To mark such a momentous occasion, the Distillery vowed that the casks used to honour their global flock would be right on the nose. For the first time in Ardbeg’s history, they rounded up Pinot Noir casks from the country that lies the furthest distance from Islay – New Zealand, that other remote island nation where sheep have been known to outnumber the locals by 7:1. Ardbeg Blaaack knits together velvety summer fruit pudding and bitter cherry, with a deeper edge of soot and Ardbeg’s hallmark smoke.

Those who piously visit a church or oratory on All Souls’ Day and recited the Our Father and the Creed. The decree also encourages priests to make the sacraments as widely available as possible during November. About the Topic: Why do we pray to St. J
