I am almost coming home. It’s been a great business trip but my body and mind are growing tired after being away for almost 2 full weeks (the third-such stretch since early November). There have been lots of great and interesting discoveries – many of them related to food and drink. Some of the discoveries [...]

I stumbled off a plane from San Diego in Chicago’s O’Hare airport at 4:00am this week (my trip was almost 12 hours delayed) and was desperate for something to drink. There were very few open shops and no vending machines. I stumbled into a frosty glass bottle of IBC Root Beer and took these photos. [...]

I am working long days these days – I am taking the cheap way out with all of these beer shots – we’ll be back to being more diverse soon. We set up the photo booth this weekend and took some shots in the tent and I’ve officially fallen in love with Coney Island Beer. [...]

Lemony Snickets! Chapeau Lemon Lambic (Beer)

The Chapeau Lambics are an odd bunch – beer that is partially fermented in the open air and left for wild pollens to permeate is combined with real, whole fruit – cherry, banana and, in this case, lemon. Remember the WHOLE part of the fruit in the description above – we’re not talking about a [...]

Flew home from the UK on Friday. Airports still lack service, planes have gotten nicer by the month (the plug on the back of the seat saved me from having to work this weekend), the otherwise friendly crews have got to be trained to not use their steel carts as battering rams and the food [...]

Yesterday we covered a product which I thought had a great start (Juice Republic) and then fell short when it came to execution – especially with it’s on-line presence. Today, we’ll examine the opposite. Honeybuns were sweet little cakes/brownies sold in a small tin like one would carry for lunch: The website is not all polish – no flash, [...]
