Podcasts about drinks

Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!This week Pip is joined by friends of the podcast and friends in life MUSA OKWONGA and POLARBEAR! Part 1 of 2!Otherwise known as the 'elevated' Drunkcast with 100% less rowdiness and very little if any drunkenness! So an entirely respectful affair all in all (shoutouts and love of course to Chris and Stu as always). It's a rare occasion for this formation to come together too, as Musa is an incredibly busy writer/performer/podcaster, and Polar is perpetually busy with the words and the page. What happens though is a beautifully cordial, jovial, inspiring and really warm catchup between folks who have a lot of love for each other but a love which radiates outwards to us too. You'll notice it and feel it. And while tough topics come up - not least involving where Musa lives and the environment cooking there - it is all met with that said outward gaze and a communal outlook. A perfect listen not only for this time of year, but for this time in the world. A lush mix of local and global happening throughout - the small acts of kindness which spread out, that kind of vibe. Oh and on the subject of vibes - let's all just crown Polar the Vibemaster General, while we're at it. ENJOY - part 2 coming shortly!PIP'S PATREON PAGE if you're of a supporting natureMUSA OKWONGAPOLARBEARSPEECH DEVELOPMENT WEBSTOREPIP TWITCH • (music stuff)PIP INSTAGRAMPIP TWITTERPIP PATREONPIP IMDBPOD BIBLE Hosted on Acast.

We are almost done. After a couple of dusty oldies, we have something from a pretty new brewery. Day 23 gives us some eXcitement with X-Brewing. The Dutch brewery released an imperial coconut cereal pastry stout aged on Wild Turkey bourbon barrels. Project X #01 is a 12.7% ABV beer that somehow really works despite the weird concoction.  #beer #drinks #craftbeer #advent2025 #imperialstout

Welcome back to the Empowered Eating Holiday Edit! Holiday drinks are basically nostalgia in a cup—whether it's hot chocolate after sledding, eggnog at grandma's, or that peppermint mocha you wait for all year. But here's the deal: some of these festive sips pack the sugar punch of a candy aisle. Does that mean you should skip them? Absolutely not. In this episode of The Empowered Eating Holiday Edit, we're decoding the most popular holiday drinks—hot chocolate, eggnog, peppermint lattes, holiday cocktails—and giving you the inside scoop on what they mean for your energy, mood, and health. Spoiler: one grande peppermint mocha is the sugar equivalent of nearly 15 candy canes… but with a few simple swaps (or smart pairings), you can sip without the crash.

In a yearly tradition, Adam, Joanna, and Zach discuss some of the biggest stories, trends, and changes in the world of drinks in 2025. From the ongoing tumult surrounding tariffs and the general economic situation, to significant sales and business collapses, to potential bright spots with drinking habits more generally, it was a chaotic, confusing, and confounding year to be sure.

Day 22 is an old money beer from 2008. Djaevlebryg Old Mephisto Batch 1 is from 2008. This English barleywine clocks in at 10.5%. This really should have been toothpaste at this point. Somehow it's still holding in there. They really knew how to make beers last back in the day. #beer #craftbeer #drinks #advent2025 #barleywine

In the final episode of the year, Janina is joined by Laura Oskwarek, Director of Winemaking at Silver Oak, to explore one of the most fascinating (and often overlooked) elements of winemaking: oak. Together they taste and compare Silver Oak's Napa Valley and Alexander Valley Cabernets, dive deep into Silver Oak's unique in-house cooperage, and unpack everything from tree selection and seasoning to toast levels, sustainability and style. A rich, geeky and festive deep dive into Cabernet, craftsmanship and the people behind one of California's most iconic wineries. Shownotes 03:32 Laura's scientific background - from microbiology and Yale to winemaking. 04:52 Choosing wine as a career: the moment wine replaced medicine. 06:32 Early lessons from Schramsberg and Nickel & Nickel - teamwork, terroir and patience. 11:55 How Silver Oak has evolved over the years - sustainability, innovation and precision. 14:18 Precision viticulture explained: data, technology and giving each vine exactly what it needs. 15:45 Water management at Silver Oak - recycling systems and the famous purple hoses. 17:55 Owning their own cooperage - why it's so rare and why it matters. 18:56 How a tree is chosen to become a wine barrel - straight trunks, diameter and quality. 20:56 Missouri oak vs French oak - grain, flavour profile and why Missouri stands out. 24:39 Seasoning vs toasting - what they really mean and why they're not the same thing. 28:16 Choosing oak for flavour and texture - matching seasoning and toast to the wine style. 32:24 How far can you push oak? Experimentation, blind tastings and finding the limit. 33:43 Janina's tasting notes: Alexander Valley vs Napa Valley Cabernets. 35:04 Tasting comparison: Silver Oak Alexander Valley vs Napa Valley Cabernet - fruit profile, structure, oak and power. 38:19 Inside Silver Oak's toasting area - fire pits, slow toasting and craftsmanship. 40:02 Roasted marshmallow and caramel - the aromas of toasted barrels. 42:30 How much does a barrel cost and how long does it take to make one? 45:13 Another key difference between American and French oak - sustainability and efficiency. 46:20 Climatic differences between Alexander Valley and Napa Valley. 49:01 Where to buy the wines in the UK  current vintages and pricing at The Wine Treasury £132 Alexander Valley Cabernet 2020 and £240 Napa Valley Cabernet 2020 50:28 Being a woman in wine - leadership, mentorship and cultural change. 52:44 A joyful harvest memory - costumes, sparkles and a true “glitter moment.” 54:39 American oak in one sentence. 55:16 Napa or Alexander Valley - where is the magic right now? 56:03 Toast levels: light, medium or heavy? 56:19 Cabernet pairing - steak or dark chocolate? 56:53 One wine region everyone should visit next.

Day 21 brings another blast from the past...the very distant past. Many, many years ago there was an amazing brewery called Stronzo. They were a defunct brewery when we started 10 years ago. Even though Stronzo went away more than a decade ago, you can still find their beers around. Anniversary #2 celebrates their second anniversary. This bourbon barrel aged Russian imperial stout has past its prime but still has some life in her. #beer #craftbeer #drinks #advent2025 #imperialstout

Advent Day 20 closes out the last full week of Advent. Just four days left, I hope you're ready. P.i.g.s. Brew Co. Deadspace Opera is a collab with Emperor's Brewery. This 14% AVB imperial stout has peanut butter, toffee caramel and Madagascar vanilla. It's really a dessert in a can. #beer #craftbeer #drinks #advent2025 #imperialstout

12/19 Hour 3: White Elephant Exchange - 1:00 Junkies Play Heads Up - 19:00 Drinks Are Flowing At Hyde Social - 34:00

A What's on Tap advent calendar wouldn't be complete without a To Ol beer. Day 19 gives us To Ol Mash Test Yummies BA. This 13.1% ABV imperial stout is made with hazelnuts, cocoa nibs and vanilla then aged for 12 months in a mix of bourbon, rum and wine barrrels. It's an awesome addition to the calendar. #beer #craftbeer #drinks #advent2025 #barrelaged #imperialstout

This episode of Business of Drinks is supported by MHW, Ltd., a company that has quietly shaped the beverage alcohol industry for more than 30 years — often behind the scenes of brands that went on to become category leaders or major acquisitions.MHW is a nationally licensed importer, distributor, and service provider with licenses across all 50 U.S. states and the EU. In this conversation, CEO Ryan O'Hara, EVP Scott Saul, and Senior Advisor (and former CRO) MaryAnn Pisani break down how MHW's service-provider model helps brands navigate one of the most complex operating environments in consumer goods — without giving up control of their brand or strategy.Key takeaways for drinks founders and operators:

Advent 2025 Day 18 is full of fruity goodness. Arpus makes really great fruit smoothie beers. This one is Chili X Pineapple X Passionfruit X Apricot. The chili is nicely balanced against the rich fruit flavors. It's not too spicy but builds gradually while enjoying the beer.  #beer #craftbeer #drinks #advent2025 #pastrysour

Une Femme Wines didn't scale the way most wine brands do — and that's exactly why its story matters.What began as the house wine at Jen Pelka's two Champagne bars — The Riddler in San Francisco and New York — has scaled into a national brand selling more than 300,000 cases annually, with wines poured everywhere from Delta Airlines to Marriott, Kimpton, stadiums, cruise lines, and even space.In this episode, Jen breaks down how Une Femme unlocked scale by saying yes to the right opportunities — and then rebuilding the business to support them.The turning point came when a chance meeting led to a Delta Airlines trial that required Une Femme to ramp from 1,500 cases over two years to 6,000 cases in three months, a feat that seemed impossible at the time. But they persevered and that single partnership didn't just change volume — it reshaped the company's format strategy, pushing the brand into cans for sustainability, operational efficiency, and national reach.From there, Une Femme scaled differently than most wine brands: Prioritizing national accounts and high-velocity venues over slow regional rollouts, and focusing relentlessly on freshness, tight SKUs, and operational reliability.

Advent 2025 has a week to go but don't worry, we still have plenty of days left. Day 17 gives us anoterh beer from Pohjala. Rukkirääk is a 5.9% ABV rye beer which is the Finnish name for a Corn Crane that lives mostly in rye fields. It has eight different malts and hopped with Cascade and Chinook hops. #beer #craftbeer #drinks #ryebeer #advent2025

In this festive episode of Food Rebels: Getting Ready for Christmas, AJ Sharp is joined by Clare Pope to talk about one very important question: what should actually go in your Christmas shop? Together they build the dream pre-Christmas trolley, from flavour-boosting staples to effortless party food and seriously indulgent puddings. They start with Borough Broth – organic, B Corp bone broth that's AJ's secret weapon for rich, non-greasy gravy and collagen-packed cosy mugs of goodness. Hydration gets an upgrade too, with Solo still and sparkling water from the Usk Valley, perfect for guests who aren't drinking – or anyone who needs something refreshing between the bubbles. For easy flavour wins, AJ and Clare taste their way through Herbamare's herb sea salts, including a low-salt version and a slow-burn spicy blend that's made for soups, broths and roast potatoes. They cover stress-saving midweek meals with HelloFresh, crowd-pleasing party food from Higgidy. Dessert lovers are in heaven with Simply Ice Cream – from Mince Pie and Christmas Pudding to cinnamon, stem ginger & marmalade and the legendary, three-star Great Taste Heavenly Honeycomb. Along with comforting spelt pasta from The Northern Pasta Company. Drinks-wise, there's celebratory Bruno Paillard Champagne and party-ready Zonin Prosecco, everything you need for delicious, low-stress festive eating. If you're wondering what to add to your online shop before the big day, this is your Christmas food shopping list in audio form.

It's a pastry sour with mango, pineapple and donuts. #beer #drinks #craftbeer #pastrysour #advent2025

Show Open 12.13.25 

My guest this week is  couples therapist Zach Brittle who is based in Seattle  I was able to pick his brain about that very common question we hear from some of our members – How can I quit when my partner drinks?   In this episode:- Zach's drinking escalated during COVID lockdown—he felt depressed and family relationships were under strain. He reached that point that many of us get to – his “not this" moment as we call it in Tribe Sober He approached a sober friend, Dave, who became his sponsor and helped him to work the 12 steps He only attended a few in-person AA meetings but actually found a South African online meeting that became his home group – so he has a soft spot for us here in SA He quit alcohol quickly and without too much trouble, but deeper emotional recovery took much longer. Zach stressed the difference between quitting drinking and being sober. His marriage had involved heavy shared drinking and his wife had been his drinking buddy But after he got sober, his wife began to drink more and had her own recovery journey to tackle Their 15-year-old daughter also “spun out” as the family system recalibrated Family members are now all healthy and connected I loved Zach's analogy as a family being like a child mobile – hold one piece steady and the other pieces wobble – how true Zach had some great advice for partners struggling with a drinker who won't change: Take care of yourself first — get grounded and stable. Build your “healthy place” and invite your partner into it. You can't decide their behaviour, but you can decide what works for you. Early sobriety is fragile — ignore comments like “you're boring.” Focus on your own survival. Zach's Top Benefits of Sobriety Feels like an adult for the first time in his life. Sleep transformed — falls asleep naturally, sleeps through, wakes refreshed. Clear mind & emotional stability — no hedging, hiding, or dodging. Better marriage — calmer, more intimate, more predictable. Massive financial savings — used to spend ~$12k/year on bar tabs. Advice for Anyone Struggling Ask yourself: “Am I ready?” If yes, do the work: find community, a sponsor, a meeting, a book, a mentor. The work isn't quitting alcohol — it's understanding yourself and building emotional sobriety. Zach's Podcast & Work Hosts Marriage Therapy Radio — weekly episodes with real couples. Has published books and has a new one coming in 2027 on relational recovery. Works mostly in person in Seattle but does some online work.

We return to a familiar brewery on Day 13. The guys had both picked the same Smedsbo Slott beer. Stefan had to replace his so he got another Smedsbo Slott beer. Alfablot is a 16% ABV barleywine. Smedsbo Slott only knows how to make big beers and this one is huge. #beer #drinks #craftbeer #advent2025 #barleywine

Nutrition Nugget! Bite-sized bonus episodes offer tips, tricks and approachable science. This week, Jenn is talking about Starbucks Protein Drinks and whether they're really worth the hype. Have you seen these new protein-packed options popping up on the menu? After encountering difficulty accessing ingredient information on Starbucks' website and app, Jenn took a hands-on investigative approach, visiting a local Starbucks location to seek out the composition of these protein-enhanced beverages. What she uncovered reveals essential distinctions between how customers might expect these drinks to work versus how they're actually prepared.
