This weekend, his much buzzed-about Die Hard Tour—one that features him with a backing band—enlivens the stage at downtown’s Moore Theatre (with Tennis as the opener).

In 2011, two busy moms started Acme Farms + Kitchen to make accessing local food easier. They realized that buying seasonal, local food changed the way we were cooking and eating, but we needed guidance on how to prepare them. The Locavore Box provides an array of delicious, fresh vegetables and cuts of meat along with recipes, meal plans, and kitchen tips. A “locavore” is a person interested in eating food that is locally produced, not moved long distances to market (often within 100 miles).

The Callahans have been in the cider business for a year, practically making them veterans in the exploding field of cider. This couple wants to make drinkable beverages—not novelty items that just sit in the fridge for people to chuckle over at dinner parties—ciders that are not overly sweet and have character. Brian and Christina have been re-imagining and revamping themselves from their wine making and catering days, creating a posh brew pub. Some updates include a freshly scoured and
Alright, so try and track with us here. American Brewing Company makes this rockin’ India Pale Ale called Breakaway. Next, their neighbors across the street at Scratch Distillery decide they want to distill American Brewing Company’s IPA into a spirit.
