In honor of the original brother of the brew, and the holiday he has so pleasantly bestowed upon us, SLUG will be highlighting some black beers this month.

Princess Kennedy: Clan Kennedy – April 2010
I spend so much time hogging the spotlight that I feel it’s necessary to share a little secret: I’m not the only Kennedy in town. I inhabit this geographical stage with two other bright and shining stars. If you’re out enough you probably know my niece and nephew Anna and Wren Kennedy. We’re all extremely tall, very loud and bestowed with beautiful bedroom eyes. Our clansmen being musically gifted, Wren and Anna are working it out to take my torch and make us the Osmonds of punk. … read more
Food Review: Red Iguana – April 2010
When locals want to take their out-of-town guests to a great Salt Lake restaurant, the place where they very often end up is the Red Iguana. One of the most famous and best-loved restaurants in town, the Iguana has, over the years, developed a local cult following and a national reputation. When the City Weekly and Salt Lake Tribune recently did their yearly list of the best restaurants and both omitted the Red Iguana, the outpouring of protest mail was immense and heartfelt. Obviously, this legendary place has personality. … read more

I was up at Brighton taking some soul runs to get the stoke back and got a call from Grenier to come shoot something at the rail garden. … read more
See You at The Crossroads
Winter sucks for the majority of people except snowboarders and people that are affiliated in the snowboard or winter industry. So what is a guy to do if he doesn’t have a mini ramp in his garage or a key to the local snowboard company’s warehouse(the majority of which have minis ramps)? Well, before Crossroads Skatepark in Ogden, we as wood pushers didn’t really have anything since Union in Sandy closed, but now we are saved. … read more
13 Cholos: The Devils Dozen Does Zion
The undoubtedly unlucky number 13 and its 2000-year legacy lives on. Stemming from the original posse of Jesus and his 12 disciples makes 13, and a crew of 13 witches makes a coven. We rolled 13 deep to a land the locals call Zion. A mini Mormon Vegas, the righteous flock to this Deseret oasis. Heaven on earth it is. The land and the atmosphere brought us near tears. … read more
