Taking home brew to new altitudes... I am a pilot - I will not drink;
But if I do, I will not get drunk;
But if I do, I will not drink in public;
But if I do, I will not stagger or fall downl;
But if I do, I will fall face down...
... so they can't see my wings!

The "race to space" continues...
Samuel Adams is ready to toast the world's first "all-civilian" orbital spaceflight with a beer made using hops flown on the private mission. The Boston-based brewery has announced "Space Craft," its Inspiration4-inspired special release.
Steven Spurrier died, earlier today. He was at home, at Bride Valley, surrounded by family. Steven was a pioneer in wine - a visionary who never lost his passion for new projects, new discoveries and the world of wine. He will always be remembered for founding the Académie du Vin, the celebrated Judgement of Paris and in recent years, the Académie du Vin Library and, together with his wife Bella, the Bride Valley Vineyard in Dorset, England – as well as much else besides. He was also a hugely loved husband, father and grandfather. He will be sorely missed, not just by his immediate family and friends, but by people right across the world of wine. His enthusiasm and love of wine will live on through Bride Valley, the Académie du Vin Library, the relaunched Académie du Vin in Canada and through the work of the many wine makers, wine writers and wine educators he championed.
A memorial will be organised in due course.

Alcohol Myths
Not long ago, I asked on social media for the best alcohol myths. Apparently there are more than a few of you out there who pull a cork now and then (but not you kids; you stay in school), because my feed was rendered quite useless for a day and a half due to being clogged up by all the suggestions....
