Who asked for this?
They've gone all creative at Open Gate for the summer, Lord save us. Classic styles can wait; everything is getting an off kilter ingredient or two. But we shouldn't be too cynical before starting to drink them. Exhibit A is Cola Radler . It looks like stout: a dark reddish brown with a fine white head. I suspect stout is the beer base and it tastes immediately roasty, plus I think I detect some Guinness tang in the aroma. Cola sits in the middle of the flavour, tasting a little concentrated, conjuring long-dormant sensory memories of the Soda Stream machine in my childhood kitchen. The cola syrup had a particular smell and taste which is echoed here. And that's it. As we saw on Friday , radler is supposed to be quenching and refreshing, and although this is only 3.5% ABV, the lack of citrus means it doesn't work. The cola is overly sticky and clashes unpleasantly with the stout's bitterness and roast. I noticed towards the end a nearby menu board saying that there is lime in the mix h

The paradox of hospitality: valued outside, undervalued within
In Italian wineries, hospitality is still treated as a second-tier role, even by colleagues. Until relational and positioning work is seen as equal to production, hospitality will remain a half-realized investment.

Beer In Ads #5262: Absolutely Pure Daufer’s Celebrated Bock Beer
Two years ago I decided to concentrate on Bock ads for awhile. Bock, of course, may have originated in Germany, in the town of Einbeck. Because many 19th century American breweries were founded by German immigrants, they offered a bock at certain times of the year, be it Spring, Easter, Lent, Christmas, or what have […]

Whiskey Review: Elijah Craig Small Batch Bourbon
We’re revisiting one of the whiskeys that helped shape our entire podcast: Elijah Craig Small Batch Bourbon . It might not be the flashiest pour on the shelf, but for a long time, this was our benchmark: everything we tried in the $30–$40 range got measured against it. So today, we’re asking: does Elijah Craig still deserve that pedestal? This Kentucky Straight Bourbon comes from Heaven Hill Distillery , with a mash bill of 78% corn, 10% rye, and 12% malted barley . It’s aged 8–12 years and bottled at 94 proof (47% ABV) . With its #3 char barrels and lower rye content, it’s built to be approachable while still offering a depth of flavor. Let’s break it down. This review is taken from our episode " Casablanca (1942) / Elijah Craig Small Batch Bourbon ." Click the link to listen to this review in audio format. Nose Brad: Dude, the nose is just like the platonic ideal of what you want from a bourbon. There is caramel. There’s brown sugar. Th
