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...

In winter, Golden, BC, comes alive with deep powder, unforgettable outdoor adventures, and a strong sense of community, where days are spent exploring the backcountry and evenings are best enjoyed with a locally brewed beer.

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 .

Well-loved luxury gets a second life at The Shops on Llano
The Shops on Llano has been carefully blending resale with retail since it opened its doors in 2007. Located in the heart of downtown Fredericksburg, owner Pam Harman’s luxury consignment boutique features women’s designer clothing, along with repurposed furniture and home accessories. On any given day you may find a vintage Louis Vuitton bag, David Yerman jewelry or a pair of barely worn Lucchese boots ready for their next twirl around a dance floor. Luxury items that feel real, lived-in […] The post Well-loved luxury gets a second life at The Shops on Llano appeared first on Rock & Vine Magazine .

A Texas Draw
If you ask Andrew Sides, Texas wine is the future. The owner of Lost Draw Wines in Johnson City sat on the porch of the winery’s barrel room to discuss the ups and downs of the wine industry at large and his business specifically. 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 .

Marcy Vreeland’s Botanical World
Even in winter’s darkest days, Marcy Vreeland’s Fredericksburg studio is a picture of spring. On a recent visit, scattered vases held periwinkle plumbago and sherbert ranunculus, while on large, stretched canvases and rolls of paper, hollyhocks bloomed amidst plum, violet, and burgundy-colored irises. “I virtually only paint flowers,” said the Amarillo-born artist who grew up in Richardson, the youngest of three daughters. Vreeland discovered her love of visual arts in high school and continued flexing her creative muscles at Baylor […] The post Marcy Vreeland’s Botanical World appeared first on Rock & Vine Magazine .

Upscale Downstairs
There’s something undeniably alluring about slipping downstairs into a space that feels just a little hidden from the world above — like you’re stepping into a luxurious version of the upside down. Downstairs spaces carry an intimacy all their own — a whisper of discovery, a hint of mystery, a sense that you’ve stepped into a place not everyone knows how to find. In Fredericksburg, some of the town’s most memorable experiences live below street level, where cozy corners, historic […] The post Upscale Downstairs appeared first on Rock & Vine Magazine .

Junebug’s Barbecue
If there’s a scent that can stop time (not to mention passersby) in Fredericksburg, it’s the slow curl of post oak smoke drifting across the Albert Hotel’s great lawn—enticing all near or far. Follow it, and you’ll land at Junebug’s Barbecue—a lively, open-air smokehouse that feels like a backyard party lit with Hill Country spirit, but delivers the kind of craft you only get when champions are working diligently behind the scenes. With picnic tables, cold beer and oftentimes live […] The post Junebug’s Barbecue appeared first on Rock & Vine Magazine .

BUCKLE UP WITH CLINT ORMS
After more than thirty years in business – twenty spent in The Old Ingram Loop – Clint Orms has moved into a spacious flagship showroom and state-of-the-art studio in downtown Kerrville, ushering in a new chapter for the seasoned silversmith. “I always wanted to buy a building,” Orms said of his new Water Street address, formerly a Bank of America. “We felt like it was a real opportunity to be a cornerstone in the city.” Three years of negotiations, design […] The post BUCKLE UP WITH CLINT ORMS appeared first on Rock & Vine Magazine .

Milam & Greene Distillery
When Marsha Milam first stepped inside a rickhouse, she fell in love with the quiet. Entering the nine-story, gymnasium-sized space packed with aging barrels was, for Milam, “like walking into a church.” The entrepreneurial scion of the Austin film and music scene was looking for a new challenge, and deep in the heart of the Kentucky Bourbon Trail she found her inspiration. “I was blown away by its singleness of purpose,” she says. “The bourbon was resting – no one […] The post Milam & Greene Distillery appeared first on Rock & Vine Magazine .

Whatever became of the Texas Icehouse
Texas icehouses have gone through more changes than the college football playoff bracket. They are products of evolution. Over the course of the 20th century, they evolved into convenience stores, bait shops, neighborhood taverns and community beer joints, but in the beginning, it was all about ice. Before refrigeration, Texans needed ice to keep things cold. By the early 20th century, many households had ice boxes which were nothing more than insulated cabinets chilled with blocks of ice. That ice […] The post Whatever became of the Texas Icehouse appeared first on Rock & Vine Magazine .
