A Dynasty of Beer-Drinking Goats Has Run This Texas Town for Decades

2 days ago | vinepair.com | Pete O'Connell

Every town in the country, regardless of size, has some entity in place to handle political affairs. Most have a mayor, while others rely on a city council. But when a town is so small that it doesn’t technically qualify as a “town,” who runs the show? Well, it depends. These places, formally known as unincorporated communities, often exist in rural areas or on the fringes of larger, established cities.

3 days ago | vinepair.com | Aaron Goldfarb

It was a chilly Tuesday lunchtime when I sauntered into Wild Turkey Distillery’s tasting room in the Jimmy Russell Visitor’s Center. Expecting to grab a neat pour of the latest Russell’s Reserve Single Rickhouse, a distillery-exclusive single barrel pick, or maybe even the new Wild Turkey 101 8-year-old, I instead noticed most visitors were drinking an Ectocooler-green cocktail. Curious, I saw the small bar had a cocktail menu — and a pretty ambitious one at that.

The Margarita is the most popular cocktail in the U.S. and the grapefruit-soda spiked Paloma continues to pop up on more menus across the country as well. But beyond these two powerhouse tequila cocktails known to have originated in Mexico, there’s a treasure trove of relatively unknown regional creations from the country to discover. Unsurprisingly, all of these drinks feature tequila in some form, and many still feature grapefruit and other citrus fruits.

4 days ago | vinepair.com | Rich Manning

Bourbon drinks are staples of the modern cocktail movement, from the classic Old Fashioned to the contemporary Gold Rush. The spirit’s subtle sweetness and nuanced oaky notes play nicely with myriad modifiers and liqueurs, and this interplay can result in delicious drinks of remarkable character and depth. If you’re a bourbon fan, it’s likely you have a favorite bourbon cocktail. You’re equally likely to think there’s at least one overhyped bourbon cocktail in existence.
Will MGP’s Big Bet on Penelope Bourbon Pay Off?

5 days ago | vinepair.com | David Tao

“I knew we’d find it.”Hunched over, torso parallel with the floor, Penelope Bourbon co-founder Danny Polise is examining barrel heads. He points to a cask of 11-year-old corn whiskey at the bottom of the rack. A member of Ross & Squibb Distillery’s sampling team drills into the barrel, and Polise stands. “Sometimes, the location isn’t where it’s supposed to be based on the spreadsheet.
5 Regions Where You Can Easily Find Aged Wines

5 days ago | vinepair.com | Hannah Staab

One of wine’s most alluring properties is its ability to evolve over time. While some wines can age incredibly well — like red Burgundy — that doesn’t necessarily mean the older vintages are easy to find. Since these wines are often released young (generally one or two years after harvest), most aged expressions have to be purchased from a private cellar or the buyer has to put in the meticulous work of storing it themselves (resisting the temptation to open the bottle for years and years).

1 week ago | vinepair.com | Pete O'Connell

When the weather starts to heat up, many drinkers cast aside Old Fashioneds, Negronis, and other boozy, stirred cocktails for spritzes, highballs, and tropical drinks. Arguably, one of the easiest ways to usher in the summer season is with a round of Daiquiris. At its core, the Daiquiri is a simple mix of rum, lime, and sugar, but it’s also a litmus test for how well a bartender knows how to balance cocktails.
