The Dark and Whimsical World of Jeremy Gregory On Display Now at Amocat

October 18th, 2011 by Amocat Cafe No comments »

The two most common responses upon seeing Jeremy Gregory’s art are “Whoa. That’s dark.” and “Whoa. That’s twisted.” Whichever camp you fall into, nearly all viewers can agree that Jeremy’s work is unique and deeply layered. You can decide which camp you fall into by stopping by Amocat to see (and purchase) Jeremy’s work BEFORE  he gets famous. Now showing through the end of October.

 

Handmade in Washington: Finnriver Ciders Now at Amocat!

October 7th, 2011 by Amocat Cafe No comments »

In case you haven’t heard, Washington state is in the early stages of a cider revolution. Amocat is happy to jump on the cider bandwagon by offering these two fine ciders from Finnriver – a dry pear and a black currant cider – available in easy to take home glass containers. If you were lucky, you got to try the ciders Finnriver was pouring at this year’s first annual Oktoberfest Tacoma held last weekend on Opera Alley. If you weren’t that lucky, now’s your chance! Also, if you like fine dry ciders, be sure and try the other handmade in Washington cider we carry, Tieton Apple Cider.
