Every Wednesday our friends at The Georgia Straight give us something new to share with you here on the blog: a preview of what you’ll see on the front of – and inside – their paper the next day. As you likely already know, they’re the source for lifestyle and entertainment stories in Vancouver. Along with their robust online presence they release a printed publication which is distributed all over Vancouver each Thursday.
This issue is the 2,427th and on the cover this week is Summer Sipping. The bartender known as H on the beauty of rum, plus great craft beer, scotch and oysters, Maui beyond mai tais, B.C. white wines, and cold-pressed juices.
They're also running the Georgia Straight’s 19th annual Best of Vancouver survey. Find the ballot online at Straight.com/bov.
