Loi de pureté Allemande et concurrence déloyale : une saga judiciaire Européenne
Le fameux Reinheitsgebot, dont je vous avais conté l’histoire dans un article dédié il y a plusieurs années, est toujours une fierté de nos voisins germaniques. Pourtant, cette fameuse loi, de plus de 500 ans maintenant, a été l’acteur d’une saga judiciaire très intéressante suite à la création du libre-échange européen.

Best Alcohol Alternatives: Untappd’s Favorite THC Drinks
With the uplifting effects of alcohol and no hangover, THC drinks make perfect alcohol alternatives. Best Alcohol Alternatives: Untappd’s Favorite THC Drinks Whether you’re cutting back on booze, taking a break from hangovers, or just looking for something new to sip during your next hangout, THC drinks are quickly becoming the go-to alcohol alternative. They bring the same « crack a can and vibe » energy as beer and hard seltzer, but with a smoother finish and a different kind of buzz. From crisp, bubbly seltzers to mixable spirit alternatives, these cannabis-infused beverages are changing the way people unwind – and they’re only getting better. So if you’re ready to swap your usual drink for something a little more modern (and a lot more mellow), here are the five best THC drinks for those looking for an alcohol alternative. What are the best THC drink alcohol alternatives right now? THC drinks are quickly becoming a mainstream substitute for alcohol because they fit into the same rituals people already love – cracking a can, sipping something cold, and enjoying a social vibe – without the next-day hangover. The best alcohol alternatives are beverages that deliver a fast-onset buzz, a consistent dose, and flavors that feel as satisfying as beer, seltzer, or cocktails. Most THC drinks kick in within 15 to 30 minutes and can last two to four hours, making them a popular option for people cutting back on alcohol. These drinks range from bubbly THC seltzers to spirit-style mixers designed for zero-proof cocktails. Instead of the drunk feeling produced by alcohol, THC beverages tend to deliver a calmer, more mood-based effect, one often described as relaxed, upbeat, or mellow depending on dose and formulation. For Untappd users who already appreciate variety, flavor profiles, and trying new beverage trends, THC drinks are an easy transition. They offer the same craft-beverage-culture appeal as hard seltzers and canned cocktails, but with a different type of buzz and a growing range of product styles. Key Facts: THC drinks are one of the fastest-growing alcohol alternatives for social drinking. Most THC beverages kick in within 15 to 30 minutes, faster than many edibles. Effects typically last around two to four hours, depending on dose and tolerance. THC drinks include seltzers, waters, shots, and spirit-style mixers for mocktails. They replicate the ritual enjoyed by drinkers of beer and hard seltzer. Crescent 9 THC Seltzer What is Crescent 9 THC Seltzer, and why is it a top alcohol alternative? One of the biggest reasons THC drinks work as alcohol replacements is because they feel familiar – carbonated, flavorful, and easy to sip during social events. Crescent 9 THC Seltzer leans into that experience with bold, fruit-forward flavors that match what many drinkers already enjoy in hard seltzers and beers. Crescent 9 offers a range of THC levels, which matters because not everyone wants the same effect. Enjoy refreshing flavors and potencies that range from light and easy (5 mg) to strong enough for a night in (50 mg), letting you dial in the kind of chill you’re after. Crescent 9’s award-winning flavors include Sour Watermelon, Strawberry Lemonade, Grape Lemonade, Tropical, Ginger Lemonade, and Raspberry Lime. Expect effects to hit in about 15 minutes and last for about three hours, depending on the strength of the drink. Key Facts: Crescent 9 THC Seltzer comes in potencies ranging from 5 mg THC to 50 mg THC. Effects can begin in about 15 minutes, making it faster than many edibles. Typical effects last about three hours, depending on dose and tolerance. Popular award-winning flavors are made with fruit juices and purees. Crescent 9 THC Seltzer is designed to stand in for beer or hard seltzer. Ellora THC-Infused Spirit Alternative Ellora THC-Infused Spirit Alternative is available in 5 mg, 10 mg, and 20 mg doses. What is Ellora THC-Infused Spirit Alternative, and how is it used as a liquor replacement? Not everyone wants a canned seltzer experience. For cocktail lovers, the hardest part of quitting alcohol is losing the ritual of mixing a drink, pouring it over ice, and enjoying something that feels elevated. That’s where THC spirit alternatives like Ellora THC-Infused Spirit Alternative fit in. Ellora is crafted with premium ingredients for sipping neat, on the rocks, or in zero-proof cocktails. With its citrus, blue agave, and botanical notes, it brings a refined vibe to the table without a drop of alcohol. Try it in mocktail flights, alcohol-free margarita-style recipes, or moments that call for a traditional bar pour. The advantage of THC spirit alternatives is that they can replace that cocktail moment without forcing people into overly sweet sodas or mocktails. This makes it especially appealing for Untappd readers who enjoy craft beverage culture, tasting notes, and mixology. Key Facts: Ellora is a THC-infused spirit alternative designed to replace liquor without alcohol. It can be consumed neat, on the rocks, or mixed into zero-proof cocktails. Its flavor profile includes citrus, blue agave, and botanical notes. It offers a more sophisticated alcohol-alternative experience than canned seltzers. It supports mocktail culture by replacing the « bar pour » ritual. Zexi THC Water What is Zexi THC Water, and why do people choose THC water instead of alcohol? THC water is one of the fastest-growing subcategories in cannabis beverages because it’s simple and functional. Instead of feeling like a party drink, it feels more like hydration with benefits. For people who don’t love sparkling beverages or want something they can drink at the gym, on a walk, or at a casual hangout, Zexi THC Water fits that niche perfectly. This crisp still water delivers THC in a zero-calorie, zero-sweetener format that’s ideal for active days. The 5 mg dose is also an important selling point. Many alcohol-alternative shoppers want something that won’t knock them out, especially if they’re new to THC. A low-dose THC water provides a noticeable effect while still being manageable and predictable. Zexi’s positioning is also strong because it bridges two major trends: the rise of cannabis beverages and the rise of
L’Indiana Jones de l’orge : qui était Harry Harlan ?
Bon, je ne vais pas vous parler d’un botaniste tueur de nazis, mais vous allez quand même comprendre d’où vient le surnom de ce monsieur, bien connu dans l’histoire agricole américaine. Est-ce que vous vous êtes déjà posé la question sur la nature même des grains d’orge qui ont permis à votre bière d’être ce qu’elle est ? Très certainement pas, et pour cause, ce n’est pas le genre de choses que l’on se pose, je l’avoue. Pourtant, derrière chaque épi de ce que l’on appelle Hordeum vulgare (oui, je me la joue latin, et alors ?), se cache l’histoire d’un homme qui a parcouru le monde pour sauver la diversité génétique de cet ingrédient essentiel à la bière, mais pas que ! Harry Harlan a très tôt su, dès 1936, que l’agriculture industrielle allait détruire la diversité dont elle dépend pour sa survie. À l’heure où le changement climatique s’est installé, n’en déplaise aux sceptiques, Harlan était sans doute un visionnaire dont les travaux résonnent encore plus aujourd’hui.

Connaissez-vous la Michael James Jackson Foundation ?
Je vous arrête tout de suite : on ne parle pas ici du célèbre chanteur de pop controversé, mais bien de son homonyme britannique, alias Beer Hunter, dont nous avions raconté l’histoire dans un article il y a déjà quelques années. Rappel sur Michael « Beer Hunter » Jackson
Une bière qui sert de vaccin ?
Calmez-vous les antivax, on ne va pas vous faire une campagne sur les bienfaits de la vaccination dans cet article, bien que j’encourage tout le monde à se vacciner, mais on va bel et bien parler de bière à travers une actualité récente. On parle ici de bière vaccinale, ce qui, au premier abord, pourrait passer pour une boutade mais est un sujet on ne peut plus sérieux. Une bière qui sauve des vies, voilà de quoi alimenter la fameuse blague de beauf : « Vous prenez la carte vitale ? ».
Saying Goodbye to Direct Messages on Untappd
Hello Untappd Community! We’re sharing some bittersweet news today. The Direct Messages (DM) feature, which we created to connect remote friends in our community, will sunset on March 2, 2026. Thank you to everyone who used it to share check-ins, recommendations, and stories over great beers. Why the Change Over time, DM usage has declined as more of our community connects in person at events, taprooms, and gatherings or remotely via social media and other messaging platforms. We’ve also seen an uptick in irrelevant messages and spam that dilute the real conversations. We’re sunsetting the feature to focus on what works best: authentic, drinks-centered interactions. Sharing Continues Community building is more important than ever. Sharing with friends remains a core part of the Untappd experience. You can keep sharing check-ins to Messages, Instagram, and other on-device options directly from the app. Existing conversations will stay readable for now, so you have time to review them or connect outside the app. They will be fully removed in a future update in the coming months. A huge thank you to our incredible community. Cheers to more check-ins and shared moments ahead!
