Adam, Joanna, and Zach respond to a recent Royal Bank of Canada report that indicates some of the changing ways that alcohol is consumed and discovered, and in particular the fact that at-home drinking occasions, in particular those of a social nature, remain appealing to consumers across a range of demographics, while on-premise drinking appears to be one of the first types cut when budgets get squeezed. Why is it that drinks brands are struggling to market to those drinking occasions?

On this special episode of the podcast, Zach speaks with Kosta Browne winemaker Julien Howsepian about the iconic California producer of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay: how they've grown the portfolio and looked to explore various parts of California through their winemaking, and how they turned their sights on Burgundy in the last half-decade or so. What are some of the opportunities and challenges that come with making wine in two different countries on two different continents?

As the drinks landscape continues to evolve, Adam, Joanna, and Zach discuss whether brands that develop a strong following in a particular region or part of the country still have as clear a pathway to national appeal as they once did. Are the differences in how Americans drink based on geography and density insurmountable, or does it just require savvier marketing and an understanding of who your target demo is?

Adam, Joanna, and Zach unpack Constellation's purchase of spiked sports drink brand SpikedAde: is the drinks giant smartly positioning itself to grab share of a small but booming category?

In the wake of a bit of a social media firestorm within the bar community, Adam, Joanna, and Zach discuss whether there's a backlash coming for The 50 (formerly 50 Best) within that community. Are bartenders who aspire to recognition tiring of the need to work guest shifts at far flung bars, endlessly politick, and generally focus on brand-building and vote-wrangling more than actually making their bars better? Is there a lesson from the past in what's happened to wine scores and reviews?

Zach is joined by Joe O'Sullivan, master distiller at Minden Mill Distillery to discuss the many aspects of their distinctive estate whiskey program. From why the Carson River Valley in Nevada's high desert is a dynamic place to grow grain to the opportunities and challenges of having every aspect of the process under their direct control, it's a look at how forward-thinking and dynamic producers are pushing American whiskey forward in a variety of categories.
