Adam, Joanna, and Zach dive into some of the surprising success stories behind the rise of vodka-based hard seltzers, in particular the curious fact that two of the most successful brands on the market are owned by a beer giant and a wine giant, not any of the big spirits multinationals. Plus, why mid-sized cities are struggling to keep their downtown cores vibrant and Adam's report on Miami's drinks scene.
