Digress Wine

Yes, you can accomplish the same trick using a spatula in your kitchen, but if you want to sabrage a Champagne bottle with the proper pomp and ceremony, Rob Chase and Brian Kerney of Digress Wine in College Park will supply the saber, the support, and the surroundings for you to decapitate your bottle of Dom or Veuve Clicquot in true style. And if you bugger it up, be a sport and help clean up the shards.

Namesake beers for local bands at Ten10 Fest

ten10fest.com

Live music at a brewery isn't exactly a new concept, but Ten10 Brewing Co. on Virginia Drive went a step beyond for their Ten10 Fest this past October. In addition to inviting 10 mostly local bands to throw an all-day hootenanny in their back parking lot, they invited five of those bands to brew their own signature suds to serve. From American Party Machine's Fireball cinnamon whiskey-inspired red ale to Fat Night's hibiscus-infused pale ale, the variety of brews gave the festival a little extra local love that we hope to see replicated again.
