One midnight during fall a couple of years ago, Highland Brewing in Asheville, North Carolina, opened online sign-ups for its sand volleyball leagues. Teams could register at their leisure, maybe over morning coffees or evening beers.

My daughter Ellie turned four in the first days of the pandemic, which meant we couldn’t exactly hold a party for her. (Some of her friends drove by our house in a car and waved, which was as sad as it sounds.) By the next year, however, the vaccine was on the way and people were a little more relaxed about getting together. We wanted to make up for a lost year, so we held a big bash in Prospect Park for her friends and their parents.

Founders All Day IPA, originally launched in 2009 and today one of the leading craft beers , has undergone a rebranding. This is the product’s first brand refresh since 2011. Updating the look and feel of All Day — a fan-favorite which now makes up 50% of Founders’ production volume — was a two-year process. The new branding still features design notes recognized by fans (like the Woody Wagon) while providing more color and simplicity, the company says.

London-based Brockmans makes a workable gin which it’s dubbed “ Intensely Smooth ,” and for its next trick it’s turning to our old friend tequila for inspiration. Brockmans Agave Cut is built on a backbone of “agave spirit” made in Jalisco, Mexico — which presumably is not tequila because of some aspect of its distillation and/or the fact that it was shipped off to Britain to be turned into something entirely different.

Lulú Martínez Ojeda, winemaker at Bruma Valle de Guadalupe , is adamant that anything in the glass besides tequila , grapefruit soda, and ice absolutely kills the spirit of the drink. “I feel like we’re betraying what a Paloma should be,” she says from the office of her winery, articulating her stance that any attempt to update or riff on the Paloma’s fast-and-easy highball format misses the point of the cocktail entirely.

Evie likes her martinis and she likes them dirty. To that point: Vermouth by Evie (which is part of the Veso drinks company) has the brine built right in. Served solo, the impact is less powerful than you might expect. The product slightly blurs the line between a dry and a bianco vermouth, offering a hint of sweetness that helps temper the herbal notes in the experience.
