Revue Taste-Off: Pumpkin Brews & Oktoberfests - REVUE

Fall has arrived, which means it’s time for pumpkin beer and Oktoberfests. In order to get the most of out of the season, we wanted to determine which of these autumnal brews were our favorites. Which, of course, led to a blind taste test. First, let’s explain Oktoberfest. The term can describe a few beer styles, all getting their name from the massive German festival. Typically, your Oktoberfest is going to be a marzen, a lager with good body, malty flavor and a clean finish. It should warm you…

Smoking Trees: Foster Glass' Functional Art - REVUE

Cannabis naturally lends itself to a culture of art, which is why there are so many beautiful, handmade means of partaking. Following up on last month’s Arts Issue, we wanted to take a look at the unique, formerly somewhat taboo art of crafting cannabis paraphernalia. One local artist with a following is Dan Foster of Kalamazoo, who’s been glassblowing since he was 18 and has recently found success with his Birch line. We talked with Foster about how he got into the field, his current approach,…

You don’t have to go down south for great barbecue—West Michigan is full of it. Yes, it’s true! Even though we may be known for olive burgers and wet burritos, there are plenty of grillmasters around who know how to treat meat right. Whether it’s brisket, pulled pork, burnt ends or sausage, your smokey cravings can be satisfied, and then some. Unfortunately, we just recently lost one of the top picks in town: Daddy Pete’s BBQ.

Taste of Chicago: Italian Beef in Grand Rapids - REVUE

Italian beef sandwiches are the past, the present, and the future. While this iconic dish has been a household name in Chicago for nearly a century, the popularity exploded with the success of The Bear, a Hulu show centered on an Italian beef shop. Even before the show, fans of the sandwich were frequently passionate enough to spread the love by opening up their own spots in other cities. At its most basic, an Italian beef has very thin slices of seasoned roast beef, served on a French roll, oft…

Liquid High: Cannabis Beverages - REVUE

Cannabis—you can smoke it, eat it, even rub it on your skin, and now, you can drink it. In a culture that loves to drink socially, a beverage is often the perfect way to enjoy THC without stinking up the place, getting smoke in your lungs or tearing off part of a gummy. I mean, I enjoy doing all those things too, but there really is something special about a beverage that makes you feel good. While edibles are a time-honored method for getting high, they take a while to kick in and tend to keep…

No Booze? No Problem: Mocktails in West Michigan - REVUE

Whether you’ve been sober your whole life or are giving Dry January a shot, you’re probably on the hunt for a good mocktail.

Clearing the Air: Vaping vs. Flower - REVUE

The modern smoker is faced with two primary options: Vape or flower. Both involve heat and inhaling some form of smoke, and both will get you high, but the experience is hardly the same.

You know the shiny pen-looking thing that your cousin kept taking sips from at Thanksgiving? That’s a vape pen. The Basics A typical vape pen set-up has just two parts: The cartri…

Green Gains: Cannabis and Exercise - REVUE

Many of us use cannabis primarily for mental health, but THC and CBD might just have a place in your physical care too. As is often the case with cannabis, any health claims still require a whole lot more research, thanks to the difficulties posed by its status as a Schedule I drug under federal law. But what we do have our some initial studies looking at how it seems to affect athletes during and after exercise. That said, let’s take a look at some pros and cons of cannabis use in relation to e…
