Today I’m drinking an Oktoberfest from 14th Star Brewing https://www.14thstarbrewing.com/beer/oktoberfest/
From Jack’s Abbey - look for a special Pride and Parquet Hoppy Lager (for a limited time). According to the brewery, “The NBA will be celebrating 75 years this season and the Celtics are one of the two original teams to keep their name and city for that entire history. That’s an incredible accomplishment and something to be proud of. We wanted to punctuate this moment with a commemorative, limited edition can that reflects the heritage and pride of the Celtics over 75 years and gives our fans something special.” http://thebrewermagazine.com/jacks-abby-releases-limited-edition-design-of-pride-and-parquet/
According to Winemag - something very special happened in 2019 that’s making mid-priced wines (from $12 - $20/bottle) taste like ones twice their price! Santa Barbara-based Doug Margerum said, “2019 is the greatest vintage since 2007… It was a very, very cool, mild summer and morphed into a cool fall harvest.” Which apparently helped develop a smooth harvest, fermentation, and full flavors. https://www.winemag.com/2021/10/21/best-california-pinot-noir-vintage/
MBC just said in January that they are is a fiercely local company and has remained steadfast regarding local production. The MBC team are stewards of their communities and the ‘aina, and curators of the craft beer way of life, but apparently, they couldn’t see their way out of supply chain issues that led them to work with Sleeping Giant to make Maui Hard Seltzer on the mainland. The bonus, “Sleeping Giant Sleeping Giant has the capabilities, skill, and expertise to ensure that MHS is produced at the caliber our fans rely on from us” and MHS will reduce the carbon footprint of the seltzer’s distribution on the mainland by skipping the shipping from Hawaii! http://thebrewermagazine.com/maui-hard-seltzer-broadens-mainland-production/
