New keg washing service launched

Native to Central and South America, these large parrots thrive in tropical forests where tall trees provide nesting cavities and abundant food sources.

Bottle Dregs Witbier – Yeast Collection for Homebrewing
I got an email asking if I still had that Hoegaarden yeast I harvested years ago. So, I checked my fridge and found a jar that looked like peanut butter. I decided not to revive the old sample. Instead, I grabbed a fresh six-pack and started over. The goal was simple. Harvest the bottle dregs […] The post Bottle Dregs Witbier – Yeast Collection for Homebrewing appeared first on Brew Dudes .

Manila Craft Beer Market: Strategic Overview and Consumer Drivers
In Metro Manila, retail execution for imported craft beer and RTDs is effectively decided by three modern-trade gatekeepers: S&R Membership Shopping, Shopwise, and Landers Superstore. Each banner plays a distinct commercial role in the portfolio. S&R functions as the primary scale and validation platform for imported alcohol, where multipacks, recognizable international provenance, and price-efficient bundles drive rapid national read-through. Shopwise delivers weekly velocity through mainstream, food-led purchasing behavior, making it the critical channel for entry-premium craft beer and approachable, flavor-forward RTDs. Landers, by contrast, operates as a brand-building and innovation engine, over-indexing on premium, design-led SKUs and lighter, sessionable formats that resonate with Manila’s younger, urban households. For exporters and distributors supplying the Philippines, including PACRIM Distributors, the winning Manila playbook is sequencing, not blanket coverage. Landers est

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...

Immersed in good brewing
Any brewery owner will tell you that no one went to school to become a brewer. No one.” John Oliver isn’t completely correct about that. There are schools devoted to brewing education, such as the World Brewing Academy in Chicago. But realistically, he’s right — nobody comes straight out of high school and heads off to brewing school. They usually head to places like WBA to sharpen their skills after taking up the profession. More likely, their original move into […] The post Immersed in good brewing appeared first on Rock & Vine Magazine .

Sides, who wore a collared shirt with small bluebonnets on it, hails from the Texas High Plains. Like the Hill Country, the High Plains evolved into a wine region at the turn of the century. “I […] The post A Texas Draw appeared first on Rock & Vine Magazine .
