New Badge: Sunlight Groove Argonaut
Sunlight Groove Argonaut Badge Chasing the Argonaut: The Sunlight Groove July Badge There’s a badge worth earning this July, and you’ll only find it in the Bay. Check in a Sunlight Groove anywhere in the Bay Area on Untappd this month and the Argonaut is yours: a woman with her shades pushed up, a copper lager in hand, looking like she knows exactly where the night is going. One month, one region.You’ll meet her again on the can, where she appears in full beneath the Golden Gate. Like the bridge, she’s a symbol of the Bay, inspired by San Francisco’s psychedelic era (guess the poster reference) but brought up to date. That instinct, to take something and remake it into something new, is the whole point of the name. The original argonauts arrived chasing gold and stayed to reinvent the place from the ground up, and the Bay has never stopped. Gold Rush to Summer of Love to right now: this is a city that reinvents itself on purpose. Argonaut is a badge for the people who move with it. The beer does the same thing. Sunlight Groove is a Cali Copper Lager, our reinvention of the California Common, arguably the only beer style California can call its own. We put it in the hands of a master of the style and brewed it with genuinely rare ingredients, including a lager yeast that predates the First World War, then modernized the profile: that warm, coppery, bready backbone, but cleaner, crisper, built for a contemporary palate. A classic, reinvented. And dangerously easy to want a second one. It’s pouring across the Bay right now. Find every spot here: https://www.sunlightgroove.com/map/bayareaOrder one, check it in, and claim the Argonaut. Badge Criteria: Check-in one (1) Sunlight Groove by The Leopard Mark Brewing Company between July 1, 2026 and July 31, 2026.

7 Best THC Drinks We’ve Tried in 2026
Photography courtesy of Crescent Canna Available nationwide, you can find THC drinks at your local grocery store, on the menu at bars, and at concerts and festivals. If you’re a beer drinker who’s been THC-curious, or want a break from alcohol while still enjoying the social ritual of having something cold in your hand, this is your guide. Check out the best THC drinks that we’ve tried in 2026 below, and find your new favorite beverage for socializing, relaxing, and enjoying. What Are THC Drinks? THC drinks are beverages infused with hemp-derived Delta-9 THC, the same compound responsible for cannabis’s effects, sourced from hemp plants and legal under the 2018 Farm Bill. As long as the product contains less than 0.3% Delta-9 THC by dry weight and is derived from hemp, it’s federally legal and can ship to most states. The category covers a lot of ground: canned seltzers, ready-to-drink cocktails, shots, iced teas, and spirit alternatives you can mix yourself. Potency ranges from a beginner-friendly 5 mg per serving to a highly potent 50 mg per can. How Do THC Drinks Work? Most quality THC beverages use nano-emulsified THC. That means the cannabinoid is broken into microscopic particles that blend into liquid and are absorbed through mucous membranes and the GI tract. That’s the technical way of saying they hit faster than an edible. Where a gummy might take 30 to 90 minutes to kick in, a good THC drink typically does it in around 15 minutes. That faster timeline is part of what makes THC drinks a natural alcohol alternative. You can sip at a party and feel the effects in real time, rather than playing the edibles guessing game. The experience is also easier to control. Sip more slowly, feel less; drink faster, feel more. It’s more intuitive than dosing gummies. How Strong Should Your THC Drink Be? That depends on your tolerance. Here’s a rough framework: 5 mg: Great starting point for newcomers or anyone sensitive to THC. The equivalent of a light drink. 10 mg: A solid choice for regular cannabis consumers or those replacing a couple of cocktails. 20 mg: For experienced users. Sip slowly and gauge your reaction before finishing the whole can. 50 mg: High-potency for seasoned consumers. Treat it as several servings. When you’re new to THC drinks, start with 5 mg and wait 30 minutes before deciding whether you want more. There’s no reason to rush. Will THC Drinks Show Up on a Drug Test? Yes. Hemp-derived THC is still THC, and standard drug tests don’t distinguish between hemp and marijuana sources. If you’re subject to drug testing at work or elsewhere, proceed with caution, because all these beverages will result in a positive test. The 7 Best THC Drinks of 2026 Best THC Drink for Beginners: 5 mg Crescent 9 THC Seltzer Variety Pack Photography courtesy of Crescent Canna If you’re new to THC drinks and don’t know where to start, this is the bundle for you. The 5 mg Crescent 9 THC Seltzer Variety Pack comes in four flavors — tropical, ginger lemonade, raspberry lime, and sour watermelon — and each has 5 mg THC and 4 mg CBD. The CBD smooths the experience and mellows the onset, exactly what a beginner needs. The calorie count ranges from 40 to 100 calories per can, and the flavors are legitimately good. Every flavor in the Crescent 9 lineup has won national awards, including 18 medals from the High Spirits Awards from 2025 to 2026. Best for THC Mocktails: Ellora 5 mg THC-Infused Spirit Alternative Photography courtesy of Crescent Canna Most THC drinks are canned and ready to drink. Ellora THC-Infused Spirit Alternative is different: a foundation you pour, mix, and build cocktails around. It’s designed for the bar cart, not the cooler. The 5 mg version is the most approachable. Each Ellora serving delivers 5 mg THC, with 85 mg per bottle. The flavor profile is citrus-forward with organic blue agave and floral botanicals; subtly sweet, medium-bodied, with the layered complexity you’d expect from a premium spirit. No fizz, no alcohol burn, a clean finish. Ellora works well in a chilled glass for slow sipping, on the rocks, or blended into cocktails. It shines in citrusy drinks like lemon drops, THC sours, ranch water-style drinks with sparkling water and lime, or a blackberry bramble. Its blue agave base brings a spirited richness that most THC beverages don’t even attempt. Best for Regular Consumers: 10 mg Crescent 9 THC Seltzer Variety Pack Photography courtesy of Crescent Canna Ten milligrams has become the sweet spot for regular THC drinkers. The 10 mg Crescent 9 THC Seltzer Variety Pack is one of Crescent Canna’s best-selling items. It hits the sweet spot between beginner and advanced potencies. At 10 mg, you’re in the territory of replacing two or three cocktails, a solid evening buzz that keeps you present and social without tipping into foggy. Flavors include raspberry lime, sour watermelon, grape lemonade, and ginger lemonade. Raspberry lime is the standout: brightly acidic, full-bodied, closer to a soda than a seltzer. Beginners should start with half a can and gauge the effects before going further. For regular consumers, a full can is a smooth, controllable experience. Best THC Liquor: Ellora 20 mg THC-Infused Spirit Alternative Photography courtesy of Crescent Canna If the 5 mg Ellora is the glass of wine of THC spirits, the Ellora 20 mg THC Spirit is the bottle of tequila. Each serving packs 20 mg THC and 340 mg per bottle and is designed for advanced consumers who want an intense, customizable experience. Because Ellora is meant to be sipped slowly or mixed, a single bottle provides a sophisticated evening ritual that lasts through many occasions. Pour it neat for full potency. Add sparkling water for a lighter libation. Mix it into a sour with lemon and simple syrup when you want to be fancy. Ellora’s effects are felt in about 15 minutes, thanks to water-soluble THC, with a peak
New Badge: Fort Collins Beer Week
Fort Collins Beer Week badge Fort Collins Beer Week 2026 Some cities have breweries. Fort Collins has a beer community. There’s a difference. It’s the difference between a taproom and a living room, between a transaction and a conversation, between just drinking and actually belonging somewhere. Fort Collins has spent years building something that feels less like an industry and more like a neighborhood – and Beer Week is when that neighborhood throws a party. Fort Collins Beer Week exists to celebrate that: the brewers who obsess over every fermentation decision, the taprooms that remember your name, and the people who keep showing up, pint after pint, year after year. Think of it as one big, citywide toast to craft beer – and everyone’s invited. This badge means you showed up too. You checked in somewhere in the Fort Collins area during Beer Week 2026 – and that makes you part of something worth raising a glass to. The Fort Collins Brewery Alliance brings Beer Week together because we believe craft beer is about more than what’s in the glass. It’s about the conversations that happen over it, the relationships built because of it, and the community that grows around it. A week like this doesn’t happen without brewers who care, locals who explore, and visitors who make the trip. So whether this was your first Fort Collins pint or your hundredth – welcome to Beer Week. Drink well, drink local, and come back soon. Badge Criteria: Check-in one (1) beer at any participating Fort Collins Brewery (see list below) between June 22, 2026 and June 28, 2026.
