Dining Out in 2024: A milestone
A mostly fictional account of visiting a franchise restaurant It was a confluence of unfortunate circumstances and bad judgement that led me to taking a three year-old to a suburban mall the week after Christmas. There were things to return, a late gift to pick up, and we were catching an afternoon movie nearby. “It’ll … Continue reading Dining Out in 2024: A milestone →

Unironically Rocking Out to Smash Mouth
My name is Ben Johnson, and I enjoy late 1990s top forty pop rock. It’s something I didn’t ever see coming, but now that I’ve said it out loud, it feels inevitable and — honestly — something of a relief to admit. It’s one less thing to give a fuck about as I inch closer … Continue reading Unironically Rocking Out to Smash Mouth →

On Criticism in Beer Writing
Last week I published a critical review of a whisky from Irish distillery Waterford Whisky. Admittedly I don’t have much skin in the game when it comes to whisky, but enough so that they saw fit to send me a bottle. One that made me think, and thus stimulated what was, for me, a useful exercise in critical writing. Other than a couple of DMs, the review didn’t prompt much of a reaction. That’s likely because in whisky writing—as much as you’d expect in restaurant or wine writing—a certain level of fair criticism is expected. In fact I’d go as far as to say it’s encouraged. When people read the work of, for example, Grace Dent, Jay Rayner or Jonathan Nunn, they anticipate and appreciate fair critique. In part this is because seeing a restaurant get panned by a top writer can be very enjoyable. But it’s also because there’s a certain level of trust between the reader and the writer, and well placed criticism adds weight when a writer of such standing does decide to give praise to somethi

From Bad Beer to Exceptional Pints : Rise Up
I've been drinking beer for the better part of 3 decades and thinking more critically about what's in my glass for the last 10 or so, examining the context as much as the contents as it were, occasionally traipsing into philosophy while still operating as the low-key drunk that I am. I have scored thousands of pints in video and the written word, some in as short as a few sentences and others as long as is way past what any sane person would consider necessary for a beer, always with an eye to style and truth in advertising when it comes to what I encounter . I've led with my heart, held grudges and soft spots in my soul at the same time and tried to always seek the good in every beer I encounter ...even when that isn't possible... What all this preamble is getting to is that after all this time, as I seek more balance and even more value for the things I have in my day-to-day life, I wonder why some of the beers we see hit the market even bother existing? Why do s
