A rule of thumb I’ve learned in a dozen-plus years reporting on the beer business is that most readers simply do not give a shit about the three-tier system, to the extent that they even know it exists. Of the bunch, they care about the middle tier — beer distributors — least of all. However! Hop Take readers are smarter than most, and earlier this month in the country’s second-biggest beer market, the country’s largest wholesaler lost a lawsuit that showcased a major source of the middle tier’s power, and its limits. You better believe we’re going to talk about it.

The first time my family walked into a Ponderosa Steakhouse was in the late 1960s. It was new and the experience was great.

One of the first things you learn when you start studying wine is that some of the most famous wines in the world are named for regions, not the grapes they are made from. You also learn that these wines are often blends rather than made from a single variety. For example, wines like Chianti, Bordeaux, and Rioja are so named for the region they come from and can be made from a mix of different grape varieties.

Give me a slice of pizza with a hazy IPA on a Friday night, and I am one happy lady. Wine, I like but can never finish a bottle in a weekend. And I have zero mixology skills — I don’t even own a cocktail shaker! It’s not that I don’t enjoy a good margarita or espresso martini, I generally just save those fancy drinks for the pros.

According to Shakey's website, this pizza parlor is only in California, North Carolina, and Washington state in the U.S. now.
