Why Aren’t Young People Drinking Like We Did? - A history of hedonism
Roman hedonism Among those of us in hospitality and drinks, the question of why young people are drinking less has become a post-lockdown obsession. Every week, there’s another post or panel trying to crack the code of Gen Z messaging. But this trend has little to do with features & benefits, branding, or curated personal brands. It has everything to do with the socio-economic climate we all live in - and which younger generations feel more intensely. Yes, camera phones and social media have made public intoxication riskier - few want a drunken moment to be immortalised online. But that only matters when there’s a cultural desire to get drunk in the first place. This isn’t just about being watched, it’s about not feeling like partying. It’s tempting to think that hard times push people towards intoxication as escapism. But hedonism flourishes in stable times, not chaotic ones. People have always drunk and taken recreational drugs, but when safety, affluence, and optimism return, intoxi

Them'uns
Something happened in Paris a decade ago. I don't know what it was, but it was significant enough for Our Brewery to name a beer after it. Ten Years Since Paris is a Rotbier, which I confess isn't a favourite style of mine, though I remind myself that this brewery doesn't always brew according to a homebrewer's level of tight fidelity to style, which is good. This one is clear, looking polished, not rustic. It's a bright copper shade, and little is given away by the aroma. The flavour is more full-on, and quite sweet, with notes of red cherry and Norn Irish favourite, brown lemonade. The finish is funky and earthy, a stark contrast with the sweetness, fully on-spec for Rotbier, and one of the reasons I dislike it. The mix of caramel and mushrooms does not sit well with me. It does seem like an accurate rendering of Nuremberg's flagship style of red lager, however, so if you actually enjoy them (not just the charming Franconian taverns that serve them) you'll likely enjoy this.
