I appreciate the concept of canned cocktails: being able to crack open and enjoy a cocktail just as easily as a beer. They’re exceedingly useful when it comes to stuffing ice chests and entertaining crowds. But often, when I sip a canned cocktail, I find myself wishing it was freshly made—except when I drink LiveWire canned cocktails. Unlike many canned cocktails that are simply ready-to-serve versions of classics, LiveWire features original recipes created by celebrated bartenders.

Since the dawn of craft beer, bars have played a pivotal role in the boom of American brewing. Nowhere is this more true than at the more specialized spots: the beer bars, as we know them, with their thoughtful selections across tap lines and bottle lists, and their dedication to service, atmosphere, and education. The best ones are learning institutions —places of discovery and retention, from the emerging trends to the established tastes.

When it comes to spirits, Scotch whisky might not come to mind as the most versatile option for gifting.

Neither of these is true: This spirit offers great drinkability and versatility in flavor profile due to both regional terroir and producers that range from generations-old to more experimental.
