videoSix Burgundies, $35 to $450 — Which One Is Actually Worth Buying?
Six wines, one region, prices from $35 to $450 a bottle. We're tasting blind — no labels, no hints — trying to figure out where they're from and which ones are actually worth your money. A few things happened that we didn't see coming. One wine had us all convinced it was something it absolutely wasn't. The cheapest bottle on the table punched well above its weight. And the most expensive wine in the lineup made a pretty compelling case for itself, even at the price. If you've ever wandered past

Voodoo Ranger Turns It Up to Eleven with G-Force
Voodoo Ranger is back at it again, and this time they’re pushing the throttle all the way forward. The brand just announced the launch of G-Force Supercharged Juicy IPA , an 11% ABV triple IPA packaged exclusively in 19.2 oz single cans—and on paper, it sounds like one of their boldest moves yet. While I haven’t experienced the campaign firsthand, the positioning alone makes this one worth paying attention to. G-Force is being billed as a “supersonic” extension of the Voodoo Ranger Force lineup, following the massive success of Juice Force, Fruit Force, and Tropic Force over the last few years. Those beers didn’t just resonate—they dominated, especially in the convenience channel, where Voodoo Ranger reportedly accounts for roughly one-third of all craft singles sold. What stands out most here is that G-Force is Voodoo Ranger’s first singles-only launch , signaling just how confident they are in both the format and the audience. The beer leans heavily into a bold mango-forward profile

Georgian Wine Doesn’t Need a Story — It Needs a Second Glass
Georgian wine is often introduced with history first.Eight thousand years. Clay vessels. Ancient traditions. Long explanations before the bottle is even opened. But in practice, that’s not how people fall for these wines. At Corus Imports, we’ve learned that Georgian wine doesn’t need to be framed or defended. When poured properly, it speaks for itself. Not through mythology—but through repetition. One glass leads naturally to another, and that’s where loyalty begins. The First Glass Is About...
