Gin is having a moment. In this week’s cover story, John Fladd talks to local gin makers and mixologists about what goes into this crisp spirit and different ways to sip it. He also looks at next week’s Distiller’s Showcase (Thursday, Nov. 7, 6 to 8:30 p.m.).
Also on the cover Concord starts the weekend with an Art Walk on Friday (see page 15) — and see page 16 for details on more art shows and tours this weekend. Well known food truck Sleazy Vegan gets a brick and mortar location (see page 22). And this week and every week find live music for your weekend — from the gigs to relax to at area restaurants and breweries listed in the Music This Week (page 30) to the big ticketed shows in the Concert listings (page 34) there is music for every mood.
