This is a cool article about breweries that are known for one iconic beer, and their related struggles to to stay fresh and hip while not losing their identity... or core drinkers, as times change
A reader writes with a question about legacy breweries and their aging flagships. It is an opportunity to delve into an issue I’ve thought about a lot over the years.

Five years on, @benitocereno.bsky.social's video lecture series THE MAGIC AND LEGENDS OF OLD CHRISTMAS is still the best and most accessible general survey of Christmas-adjacent holiday traditions and characters from around the world (predominantly central Europe).

I did the storyboards for Concept High, a short film by @amosposner.bsky.social that's now on YouTube. It's a super entertaining take on the inspirational classroom from a film/tv show. Give it a quick watch and then watch it again!

Baltic Porter flavors include chocolate, cocoa, coffee, toffee, caramel, molasses, licorice, nuttiness, plums, raisins, black currant, and anise. But subtly.

Sweet, with a balancing bitterness. Lager smooth. A warm roundness on the mouth. 7-10% ABV

Porter! It's a rich dark brown ale. Some are bitter, burnt, and roasty, while milder versions may focus more on the flavors of bread, toast, chocolate, earth, caramel, coffee, or toffee. There may be floral from the hops, and fruit (apples, banana) from the yeast
