There remains some mystery around what life was like in the 1800s, especially for teens. Most people alive today were not around in the Victorian era when the technologies now deemed old-fashioned were a novelty. In this rediscovered 1970s clip from the BBC, two elderly women reminisce about what it was like being teenagers during a time when the horse and buggy was still the fastest way to get around.
While cars were just around the corner from being the common mode of transportation toward the end of the 19th century, it’s pretty wild to imagine what these women experienced. Frances “Effy” Jones explained how, at age 17, she was encouraged by her brother to check out this new machine in a storefront window. Turns out that machine was a typewriter and, after being trained on how to use it, Jones would sit in the store window typing while people outside gathered to watch. Before long, classes began popping up for women to learn how to use a typewriter, starting a new movement for women of that era.
The second woman, Berta Ruck, told the BBC that she would get into a bit of trouble at boarding school for drawing instead of completing school work. This talent took Ruck to art school in London where she rode buses around town, attempting to avoid mud getting on her long skirt. But the woman explained that it never worked and she would spend hours brushing the mud from her skirt before wearing it out again. I’m sure you’re thinking, buses? They weren’t the buses we would see nowadays. These were double-decker horse-pulled carriages.
I know, that’s hard to imagine. That’s why you should check out the video below:
There are very few things that would make people nostalgic for the 1950s. Sure, they had cool cars and pearl necklaces were a staple, but that time frame had its fair share of problems, even if “Grease” made it look dreamy. Whether you believe your life would’ve been way more interesting if you were Danny Zuko or not, most would agree their technology was…lacking.
All eras are “advanced” for their time, but imagine being dropped off in the 50s as someone from the year 2023. A recent post by Historic Vids on Twitter of a 1956 commercial advertising a refrigerator, however, has some people thinking that when it came to fridges, maybe they were living in the year 2056. I don’t typically swoon over appliances, yet this one has me wondering where I can purchase a refrigerator like this.
Of course, there’s no fancy touch screen that tells you the weather and asks how you’d like your ice cubed. It’s got more important features that are actually practical.
Like a fruit drawer that not only pulls down so you can quickly check your inventory, but also pulls completely out.
“A big picture window hydrator for fruits and vegetables,” the actress says while demonstrating. “It tilts down to show you your supply at a glance, and it also lifts out, so you can take it over to the sink when there’s a fresh supply to be washed and put away.”
Yeah, that could be helpful and reduce the clutter in your fridge from all those clear storage bins companies designed to essentially do the same thing but maybe in a more cumbersome way. But the cool factor of the vintage refrigerator didn’t stop there. You know how sometimes it’s like playing Jenga removing leftovers? Well, this fridge has shelves that slide out nearly completely. Oh, the amount of reduced stress that would give folks sneaking a late snack after a holiday meal.
Watch the fascinating video below:

One commenter said, “Can we vote to bring this back?” and I have to agree. Take my money.
For a little extra fun, check out the full commercial below and marvel not only at the refrigerator but at how our attention spans for advertisements have diminished over the decades.
There’s an emerging trend among American Gen Zers and Millennials where they are moving away from responding with “You’re welcome” after receiving thanks. While older generations might interpret this shift as a sign of a decay in manners, many young people view responses like “OK” or “Mm-hmm” as more courteous than the traditional “You’re welcome.”
The change may signal that the younger generations are actually kinder than the older ones. Simply put, the difference suggests that older people think help is a gift you give, while younger people think help is an expectation required of them.
This change in manners has caused a debate in the States, and the cultural shift has also led to some discussions abroad. Recently, there has been a considerable debate on TikTok, where non-Americans, especially those in Europe, see the change as rude.
Earlier this year, Australian YouTuber and content creator Georgia McCudden shared a clip (which has since been removed) depicting an experience with a server during her visit to the U.S.
In the video, McCudden recounts that she thanked a restaurant employee who handed her ketchup, to which the server replied, “Mmhmm.” She was baffled by the response, saying, “I was like, ‘I beg your f**king pardon,’” she said in the clip. “I’m sorry, I didn’t know that was a big ask.”
An American responded to McCudden’s original post, reassuring her that the server wasn’t being rude at all. The exchange was just a cultural misunderstanding.
#stitch with @Georgia also this is a good verison of nonamericans teasing americans besides the usual stuff they say
A TikTokker named Arjuna hopped into the discussion with a post that described the “You’re welcome” phenomenon in America, and he must have done an excellent job because it’s received nearly a million views.
He captioned the clip: “I promise you Americans are actually very polite!!!”
“Someone went viral earlier this week for saying that Americans don’t say ‘you’re welcome’ in customer service situations,” Arjuna said. “I’m not here to sh*t on them, but I do want to explain for non-Americans why we don’t really say ‘you’re welcome’ and why ‘you’re welcome’ feels a little outdated to a lot of Americans.”
i promise you americans are actually very polite !!! #usa #american #thankyou #yourewelcome #english
Then, he laid out the “American” logic for the change.
“Let’s say I’m a cashier at a fast-food restaurant, and they hand someone their food, and they say ‘thank you,’ to a lot of Americans, for us to say ‘you’re welcome’ has the mindset of like ‘Oh, yeah, we just did something big for you.’ Like, it has this implication of ‘I know, you should be thanking me,’” Arjuna said.
He adds that saying “you’re welcome” after completing a small task that’s part of their job “seems way too intense for that.” That’s why he says younger Americans prefer to respond with an “uh-huh,” ‘no problem,” or “don’t worry about it.”
Arjuna did add one caveat where “you’re welcome” would be an appropriate response to a “thank you.”
“But if I donated a kidney to someone, and then they came up to me and were like ‘thank you’ then I’d be like ‘yeah, you’re welcome,'” he said.
There is a union for musicians, called the United Musicians and Allied Workers (UMAW) is the union for musicians. However, the inclusion of songwriters is tricky, and even in some cases illegal. “It’s something we need to work toward,” said musician Joey La Neve DeFrancesco. According to LA Times, a National Labor Relations Board-recognized union would need to exist to bargain for songwriters, otherwise they are treated as independent contractors licensing their work. DeFrancesco continued, “But unlike the WGA, musicians for a variety of reasons are simply not in the same level of organization right now. That’s the fundamental barrier.”
In response to the merch cut discussion, Live Nation ended fees for selling merchandise at their club-sized venues, as well as “investing in developing artists by providing $1,500 in gas and travel cash per show to all headliners and support acts, on top of nightly performance compensation.” As the company explained in a statement, “By helping with these core expenses, we aim to make it easier for artists on the road so they can keep performing to their fans in more cities across the country.”
Bullying is an issue that we all know well. We talk about the importance of instilling kindness in children and teaching them to speak up when they see someone being bullied. It’s proven time and time again that bullying can be damaging – in some cases, deadly. This prompts all sorts of PSAs and anti-bullying campaigns but there’s one type of bullying these efforts often miss.
Monica Lewinsky is no stranger to bullying but through all of her battles and multi-hyphenate titles she’s achieved, there’s still one bully she fights daily – herself. Well, Lewinsky didn’t let her internal battle slow her down. While talking to her about her new project, a PSA on self bullying, she revealed where the idea came from.
“About ten years ago had to write down the negative things we said to ourselves and had to read them to other people,” she explains before pondering why we’re this cruel to ourselves if we wouldn’t speak this way to others.
Self bullying isn’t new and Lewinsky is sure to reiterate that she did not coin the term. This negative self talk is just something that seems to happen as we age, especially with the rise of social media where it’s easy to compare your lived reality with the curated snapshots others share. Lewinsky contributes social media to more teens speaking to themselves negatively as well as more struggles with mental health.
“95% of teens use social media and more than a third of them report using social media constantly,” she says quoting a recent Surgeon General’s Advisory.
The producer also explains that there’s a high correlation with poor self image, body issues and online harassment and the use of social media. Being armed with this knowledge, it made it important for Lewinsky to include a couple of young teen sisters in the PSA.
In the PSA, the exercise Lewinsky had to do a decade ago is used to make a statement on a larger scale. Having each person read the negative thoughts they have about themselves to someone else really brought home how harmful self bullying can be. But Lewinsky revealed an even deeper connection to bullying, self bullying and this mental health PSA.
“It’s an interesting intersection, my undergraduate degree, my major was in psychology so then to have the experiences I have. Literally the life altering year of 98 gave me more of an understanding, having the world reflect back to me these negative things I thought about myself,” the social activist divulges.
Lewinsky expresses excitement for her dream of helping to pioneer “emotional trauma urgent care centers.” These centers would be a place where people who may have just experienced an upsetting event can walk into one for immediate help.
“We give such immediate attention to physical injuries, why not emotional,” Lewinsky asks.
Emotional injuries are sometimes much harder to recover from and understandably can sometimes result in self bullying. But when it comes to self bullying, Lewinsky believes people are less easily able to identify it, which is why she felt making this PSA was important.
“It’s not a concept that’s really out there but when we reframe an issue or reframe a behavior it helps,” she tells Upworthy.
For those who are struggling with negative self talk, Lewinsky has a message for you.
“Be gentle with yourself, even around the process of starting to realize that negative self talk is bullying. I’ve been working on it for decades.”
On Sunday, then-Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy seemed awfully confident. He’d just teamed up with House Democrats to avert a disastrous shutdown of the federal government. That had enraged fellow House Republicans, most notably Matt Gaetz, who vowed to bring a vote to remove him from the gig he just barely nabbed in early January. In response McCarthy tweeted this:
Jump less than 48 hours and McCarthy was successfully ousted from his Speaker job. What happens next is up in the air, but the immediate reaction was one of merriment. The jokes flew all over social media. The Daily Showgot in one of the best ones. So did the star of the film McCarthy seemed to be referencing when he told Gaetz and crew to, as he put it, “Bring it on.”
That film was, of course, Bring It On, the dueling cheerleader squad comedy from the year 2000, that starred Kirsten Dunst and Gabrielle Union. The latter didn’t miss McCarthy’s apparent reference. And after McCarthy lost his gig, she offered him some side-eye.
McCarthy getting dissed by one of the stars of a movie he referenced isn’t as bad as what happened to fellow Republican Ted Cruz. McCarthy was simply spouting a phrase that inspired the title of a popular franchise. Cruz actually got into a fight with Cary Elwes, the star of his favorite movie, The Princess Bride. That must suck knowing that one of the stars of your favorite movie hates your guts. But most of us will likely never know that indignity.
From seasonally-inspired treatments to traveling for time-honored wellness traditions, we’ve broken down the top spa trends you need to know for fall of 2023 and where to experience them firsthand.
THE TREND — Traveling For Wellness
Hoshino Resorts
Would you travel across the globe if you could take part in another country’s spa traditions? I traveled all the way to Japan to visit a traditional Japanese onsen (well, for that and the sushi), and let me tell you, it was a once-in-a-lifetime type of experience.
An onsen is a Japanese traditional bath, usually found in regions with natural hot springs, and is deeply rooted in the country’s culture. At its best, it is soothing, calming, and elegant (in contrast to many American hot springs which can be… a tad seedy).
Where To Experience It:
Hoshino Resorts
At HOSHINOYA Tokyo, an urban twist on a traditional ryokan, they’re seeing a wave of younger travelers (under the age of 29) staying at the property (there’s been a 17% monthly increase in the demographic as of July 2023). The hotel’s general manager, Geunju Lee told me, “This year at HOSHINOYA Tokyo, we’re finding that younger people are looking for special ways to unplug and recharge.”
I chose this hotel because I got a two-in-one — a location in the center of the city and a true sanctuary. The top floor’s onsen baths are fed by hot spring waters drawn from 1,500 meters below the ground and located at the bottom of an open-roof chamber with high walls that frame the sky above. Through the open roof, guests are presented with a private viewing of the ever-shifting colors of the Tokyo night sky. At night, cool breezes blow in, bringing seasonal aromas with them.
In case you’ve never been to an onsen, note that you’ll be fully nude. Bring a small wash towel for the washing area (you need to rinse before getting in). Keep in mind, tattoos are a bit of a taboo for the Japanese’s older generation; however, this attitude is changing with younger generations, especially those living in the bigger cities.
THE TREND — Spa Menus Using Trending Seasonal Ingredients
VH Spa at Hotel Valley Ho
Pumpkin spice latte what?
Spas are catering to the younger crowd with trendy seasonal specials. These customized treatments not only address specific body needs but also offer a sensory journey aligned with the changing seasons. It’s essentially the “eat local” movement ported over to spa culture.
Where to Experience It:
The Lodge at Woodloch
At VH Spa at Hotel Valley Ho in Scottsdale, Arizona, guests can choose from new menus of special treatments with ingredients from every season. In the fall, you can expect an Apple + Pumpkin Pie Massage that’s finished off with a pumpkin-orange enzyme foot treatment or a Whipped Elderberry Facial for an antioxidant-packed mask that leaves you with a golden glow. They also offer midweek “happy hour-esque” deals on treatments and unique offerings like chromotherapy saunas, CBD oils, and more.
Also, The Lodge at Woodloch (in Hawley, PA) incorporates body polishes inspired by the season. In fall, they use warming scents of pumpkin and spices for cozy comfort, and in the winter you’ll find an aromatic pick-me-up of coffee.
Spas around the world are now utilizing crystals throughout their treatments to enhance energy healing and alleviate stress. Many claim that incorporating crystals helps enhance relaxation and promote holistic well-being by harnessing the unique energy and soothing properties associated with these natural gems.
Where to Experience It:
The Ritz Carlton New York, Nomad
I tried the 90-minute Rose Quartz Remedy massage at the The Ritz-Carlton New York, NoMad and it was unlike any other massage I’ve ever gotten because it started off with a dry scrub. It’s a full-body massage and exfoliation treatment that began with a grounding tea ceremony. The powerful effects of Frangipani, Rose Geranium, and Palmerosa went to work, and the experience concluded with a scalp massage with rose quartz crystals which are believed to be connected to the heart chakra.
The spa’s director Rita Rroku-Berishaj told me, “Since opening a year ago, we’ve quickly seen wellness activities become an everyday essential in some visitors’ lifestyles. Amongst the millennial demographic, they love our clean, organic aromatherapy approach as well as the sustainable brands we’re partnered with such as Augustinus Bader and ESPA.”
It’s no secret the younger generations are drawn to the latest technologies, and that doesn’t end with phones and social media. Spas are keeping up on the latest opportunities and big ideas when it comes to how technology can enhance a wellness experience for the better.
Where to Experience It:
Carillon Miami Wellness Resort
At the Conrad LA, they offer high-tech wellness therapies delivered to what’s called a Recovery Cabin. These cabins tap into powerful neuroscience technology with NuCalm Recharge meditation that organically diffuses the stress response and improves the quality of sleep. In the cabins, guests can use the HigherDose Infrared PEMF (Pulsed Electromagnetic Field) Mat, which helps to ease chronic pain, recover from workouts and aids total body relaxation. The innovation doesn’t stop there, the Carillon Miami Wellness Resort is a leader in wellness menus and offers “touchless wellness.” Think: prism light therapies, a wave massage machine, a Somadome meditation pod, and coming soon — a power plate to send tiny vibrations through your body.
WRITER’S PICK: THE TREND — Adding Sound & Light Into The Mix
SPA AT SEC-HE
Light and sound therapies are the next wave, literally (as in… light and sound waves). Whereas many spa treatments are unproven, freaking NASA is all in on light therapy. And the healing qualities of sound waves — aka music — have been well documented. It certainly tracks that spas, which have long thrown around words like “holistic” would start paying increased attention to the other sensory elements of relaxation beyond just physical touch.
Where to Experience It:
SPA AT SEC-HE
One of my favorite rooms at The Spa at Séc-he — which impressed me so much that it landed on the 2023 Uproxx Fall Travel Hot List — was the Acoustic Wellness Lounge. Sound therapy is gaining popularity for its proven benefits of lowering anxiety, stress, depression, sleep disorders, and high blood pressure. This room was lined with zero-gravity vibrational (and heated) loungers for binaural therapy. I loved this room because after a massage I always want to continue feeling ultra relaxed and I’m never ready to enter the real world… y’know, with other humans in it. I also usually want to take a nap.
This room allows not only for that nap but also offered the added benefit of audio therapy. On the left side, the loungers offered a variety of healing sounds. I was able to enjoy a guided breath-work session in 25 minutes (bonus!). Other options include chakra–sound waves to work on all six chakras, gamma meditation that focused on memory, perception, and compassion, vibrational wellness, meditation energy, and, my favorite ~sleep wave~. As someone who is chronically underslept, the power nap and deep sleep options were a godsend.
There was also a weight management option. I didn’t ask questions, I just hit “play” and hoped some weight was being magically redistributed while I relaxed.
“Not unlike Frankenstein, a lightning bolt has started its heart again!” he said. “It’s a really great show. It’s called Dos Apes, and with the pandemic we had to put it down. Dos Apes is alive, and that’s all I can say. There was nothing happening because of the writers strikes and stuff like that, but we’ll see. I’m not going to drown in projects like I was before, but that it is one of them that I really want to do and it might happen.”
“There’s a lot of detail from autobiographical things, but not just mine — also Walt Martin and Matt Barrick from the Walkmen have all kinds of stories,” he continued. “Tom, my brother, is essentially the hero of everything. Tom and I play ourselves, my wife isn’t in it, but the whole chemistry and DNA of the show is very different than anything I think that exists.”
There are two main phases to Chris Pratt’s career. There’s the seven seasons he spent playing lovably schlubby Andy Dwyer on Parks and Recreation. Then there’s when he got ripped to play heroes in the MCU, in the Jurassic World films, and so on. Actually there’s some overlap between these two epochs. Parks and Rec ran until 2015, while people first noticed how shredded Pratt had gotten in 2012. In fact Jacked Pratt got him into some trouble when he was still playing Doughy Pratt.
“There’s a scene that we wrote for the premiere where it called for him to take his shirt off. We realized we couldn’t do it — [he’d] look ridiculous,” Schur said. “Andy is not a guy who has a perfectly constructed human form with ripped abs and gigantic biceps.”
Again, this isn’t new news. Said interview is from 2015. But the tidbit has resurfaced in the new book MCU: The Reign of Marvel Studios, which chronicles the storied rise of the comic book line’s film wing.
It’s worth noting that Pratt first got ripped not for Guardians of the Galaxy, the movie he almost gave up on, but for Zero Dark Thirty, in which he played the Navy SEAL who takes out Osama bin Laden. That came out in 2012, with some three seasons left of Parks and Rec. Surely it’s fun to go back and watch the show and see if you can spot Andy Dwyer, midway through, looking like an Adonis under his baggy clothes.
If September still feels like summer (since technically, most of the month lands in that season), October is when we notice that fall has officially arrived. If you live somewhere with seasons, you’re likely seeing leaves begin to change colors or grabbing a light jacket when you leave the house in the morning. When it comes to beer, you’re leaning toward darker, maltier, and potentially even pumpkin-flavored brews.
October is a great month for beer drinkers with a lot to offer from a sprawling variety of beer styles. Oktoberfest-style beers, Vienna lagers, pumpkin beers, and even darker, bolder beers are starting to make their respective appearances. The fact that it’s a sort of tricky weather month means it’s a great beer month. Random 80-degree day? Grab an IPA or pilsner. Cloudy, cold, and rainy? It’s brown ale, porter, or even stout time.
We decided to help map out your October imbibing by picking eight great, new, seasonal beers that pair perfectly with the season. Keep scrolling to see them all.
The October beer list is complete without a spooky beer, right? Well, this beer might have a Halloween-themed name but there’s nothing scary about this “hoppy dark ale” brewed with roasted barley, Blackprinz malt, and hopped with Chinook, Saaz, and Crystal hops.
Tasting Notes:
The nose is all chocolate, roasted malts, dried fruits, and light floral hops. The palate is a mixture of freshly brewed coffee, roasted malts, dark chocolate, caramel, dried fruits, and gentle floral, piney hops at the end. It’s a nice mix of malts and hops.
Bottom Line:
This black IPA is a great entry into fall. It’s bold, malty, and bittersweet. All in all, it’s a great beer for the season’s brisk days.
Not all of your October beer choices need to be dark, robust, and malty. The recently released Grimm Ambient Fizz: Koyo Berry is a respite from a month otherwise dominated by those beers. This sour beer was fermented and aged in oak barrels with wild yeast and bacteria. It was fermented a second time with Oishii Koyo berries.
Tasting Notes:
Aromas of ripe berries, lemon peel, funky yeast, and oaky wood begin your tasting journey with this unique beer. Sipping it reveals a sour, tart, slightly sweet beer loaded with strawberries, raspberries, lemongrass, and oak flavors. It’s refreshing, effervescent, and highly memorable.
Bottom Line:
This sparkling, tart, refreshing beer is a great break from the inevitable Marzen-style beers, Vienna lagers, and darker beers that make an appearance in October.
Brewed with Pale and Munich malts, Bronx Brewing’s annual take on the classic Oktoberfest beer leans toward the Marzen-style side of things. It’s known for its mix of sweet, caramel malts, roasted flavors, and floral, earthy, herbal hops. It’s a very well-balanced fall sipper.
Tasting Notes:
A nose of roasted malts, biscuit-like malts, caramel, and floral, earthy hops begins everything off right. A palate of bready malts, toffee, roasted malts, and more floral, herbal, noble hops rounds everything together nicely. All in all, a great example of an American-style Oktoberfest beer.
Bottom Line:
After you’ve enjoyed traditional Oktoberfest beers, try an American craft version like Das Bronx. You’ll be happy you did.
This annual pumpkin beer begins with 3,000 pounds of locally sourced pumpkins. It’s spiced with cloves, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and French Saison yeast. While spiced, it’s known for its light, pumpkin-forward flavor profile that sets it apart from the other overly sweet, spiced beers on the market.
Tasting Notes:
On the nose, you’ll find notes of roasted pumpkins, caramel malts, nutmeg, cinnamon, and other spices. On the palate, you’ll find a ton of toffee, ripe pumpkin, cinnamon sugar, and nutmeg. It’s sweet, spiced, and surprisingly well-balanced.
Bottom Line:
In a market of over-the-top pumpkin beers, Troegs’ Master of Pumpkins is a well-balanced, flavorful option that will make you rethink the style.
Cellarmaker Brass Boots
Cellarmaker
ABV: 5.5%
Average Price: Limited Availability
The Beer:
Brewed with Dark Crystal, English Maris Otter, and Honey malts, this ESB (extra special bitter) is known for its mix of bready malts, toffee, and dried fruits. It’s malty, sweet, and well-balanced. Perfect for a chilly fall day.
Tasting Notes:
A nose of bready, caramel malts, and nutty sweetness greets you before your first sip. On the palate, you’ll find notes of freshly baked bread, sticky toffee pudding, candied almonds, dried fruits, and gentle herbal hops. Overall, this is a malty, sweet beer well-suited for fall weather.
Bottom Line:
While well-balanced, this is a malt-forward beer that drinks perfectly on an unseasonably cool fall evening.
When it comes to cool fall days, we can get behind the idea of having a flannel Friday even if it’s just in beer form. It’s listed as a “hoppy amber ale”, but it seems more like a mix of a red IPA and a brown ale. It’s known for its roasted malts, caramel, and floral hops.
Tasting Notes:
Complex aromas of sweet caramel, candied orange peels, roasted malts, and floral, piney hops start everything off on a perfect foot. Drinking it brings forth notes of roasted malts, toffee candy, orange peels, and resinous, piney hops.
Bottom Line:
This malty, citrus-filled, piney beer is like the beer equivalent of pulling on a soft, warm flannel shirt on a chilly fall day.
Ska Brewing Double Modus
Ska Brewing
ABV: 9%
Average Price: Limited Availability
The Beer:
If you’re an IPA fan, you’ve probably enjoyed a pint (or two) of Ska Brewing’s flagship IPA Modus Hoperandi. Recently, the well-known Colorado brewery decided to turn things up to eleven with its new Double Modus DIPA. This imperial version of the well-known IPA is 9% and is known for its dank pine and ripe citrus flavors.
Tasting Notes:
The nose is an aromatic mix of tropical fruits, tangerine, lime peels, and dank, resinous pine. The palate is a symphony of pineapple, caramel malts, lemongrass, orange peels, and a wallop of dank, spicy, piney hops. The finish is loaded with citrus and pleasantly bitter, biting pine needles.
Bottom Line:
If you already enjoy Ska Modus Hoperandi, you’re going to love this elevated, 9% double IPA version. It’s every flavor you enjoy, heightened.
You might have heard of Stowe, Vermont’s von Trapp Brewing, but did you know that it’s the same family so famously portrayed in ‘The Sound of Music’? Well, not only do they sing, but they also make flavorful, award-winning, European-style beers. One of their best is its Vienna Lager. Brewed with German-sourced malts and hops, it’s a great American take on the classic beer style.
Tasting Notes:
This beer starts everything off right with a nose of freshly baked bread, roasted malts, wet grass, and floral, herbal, earthy hops. The palate continues this trend with a ton of biscuit-like malt sweetness followed by freshly cut grass, toffee, and a ton of noble, floral, fresh hops. The finish is sweet and lightly bitter.
Bottom Line:
As American-made Vienna lagers go, you’d have a tough time finding one better and more authentic than von Trapp’s version.
