Beer Takes A Turn in Orbit With Samuel Adam's 'Space Craft'
There’s a lot going into orbit lately. Space craft with multiple billionaires, Captain Kirk, and million dollar bottles of wine have all taken a spin around the Earth. But what does this mean for you, a beer drinker? Until today, not much. That’s changing because Samuel Adams is making a beer brewed with hops that’ve been to space. It’s a gimmick, sure, but it’s a gimmick that got our attention. Who doesn’t want to drink space beer?
Last month, Inspiration4 was the first all-civilian spaceflight mission. Aboard a SpaceX Dragon capsule, four people spent three days orbiting Earth. Along for the ride with the crew—a billionaire, a community college professor, a physician’s assistant, and a data engineer—were 66 pounds of Mosaic and Citra hops.
Brewing space beer
Back on Earth, Samuel Adams took those hops and brewed a special-release West Coast-style IPA with a firm bitterness and notes of grapefruit, guava, and passionfruit. You can also expect piney, resiny hop aromas. For the name, the brewing company turned to social media. After receiving more than 5,000 entries, Samuel Adams and Inspiration4 crew picked, quite appropriately, Space Craft.
Space Craft will be available starting November 16 at Sam Adams Boston Brewery and taprooms and givethembeer.com. The release was timed to coincide with the Leonid meteor showers. So, if you’re out in the middle of the night, staring at the skies, you now have the perfect beer to drink. The cost of a Space Craft is $22.33, a tribute to Inspiration4’s 2-day, 23-hour, and 3-minute mission. You can pre-order this beer starting today.
In addition to inaugurating a new era of civilian space flight, the Inspiration4 mission is also raising awareness and funds for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. Samuel Adams donated $100,000 towards Inspiration4’s fundraising goal of $200 million for pediatric-cancer research. Thanks to donations that include $125 million from Inspiration4 mission commander (and billionaire) Jared Isaacman and $50 million from SpaceX’s Elon Musk, the mission has already raised more than $239 million. If you’d like to help St. Jude’s, you can donate here. It’s the least you can do for the people who gave us space beer.

Corey Bellemore Wins 2021 Beer Mile World Classic
Beating Halloween by eight days, the 8th annual Beer Mile World Classic (BMWC) happened last Saturday, October 23, 2021 on a 400-meter track at Leigh Sports Village near Manchester, England, under a portentous blanket of clouds. As expected, the gut-defying results were downright scary.
“What’s your confidence level going into today?” Canada’s Corey Bellemore was asked just before the cult classic one-mile race—which requires runners to chug a 12-ounce beer leading into each of the four laps.
“Pretty good,” said the two-time champion and world record holder from Windsor, Ontario, who in 2017 completed the circuit in an unfathomable 4:33 (that’s with drinking four beers). That time was good enough to shave his prior world record set the year before by a full second. “Yesterday was a long travel day, so I’m just happy to be at the track ready to run and take that big cup back. It’ll be stiff competition,” Bellemore added. “We’ll see what happens.”
So What Happened?
What happened (spoiler alert if you decide to watch the occasionally stomach-churning footage) was pretty sick—in all senses.
Two heats of male competitors and one heat of female runners—mainly from the UK, Scandinavia, Canada and U.S.A. chugged and dashed their way around the oval like suds-swilling Olympians, vying for the Kingston Cup and Queens Cup respectively.
Extreme Adventure Races
Yes, there were some “reversals” along the way. We’ll let you take a millisecond to translate that official BMWC euphemism.
Barfing during the race will cost any competitor an additional penalty lap afterwards.
Two Champions Chugging It Out
The tightest grudge match of the event was between Bellemore and U.S.A.’s Chris Robertson, last year’s champion and a BMWC co-founder. Neck and neck for most of the race, Bellemore turned out a world record-shattering time of 4:28. Robertson arrived at the finish line in 2nd place at an only slightly less insane 4:40.
Team U.S.A.’s world champion Allison Morgan won the women’s title for the third consecutive year with a stunning time of 6:32.
25 Reasons Running Is Better Than the Gym
“I’m happy to go sub-4:30,” said Bellemore after the race. “There’s still room for improvement, but this has been a long time coming,” he added, referencing a disqualified win (and would-be world record) in 2018 after leaving half an ounce too much foam in his emptied beer. The backwash limit is 4 ounces.
“Your chugs were right on point,” Bellemore assured Robertson afterwards, who’d been on Bellemore’s heels the whole time. “I thought I was having good chugs—but you pushed me the whole way.”
In the team category, the U.S. runners defended their men’s and women’s national titles based on collective points respectively.

Best Travel Cameras for the Globetrotting Adventurer
As smartphone photography improves with each passing year, actual standalone cameras are getting wrongfully sidelined, but jet-setters shouldn’t discount travel cameras. They’re still better than smartphones, and can make one helluva difference capturing priceless sunsets, candids, meals, and more on your travels.
Composition, exposure, shutter speed, focal length…these aren’t terms most people know anymore, since we snap 100 photos of any subject without hesitation or consideration, knowing that one of them will be editable and postable in the end. But for many people, smartphones are a gateway to a bigger hobby or even a new profession.
Outdoor Photographer Mark McInnis Discusses the Realities of Professional Photog...
If you’re in the market for a new toy—be it a gift or an essential piece of gear for you budding profession—heed the advice of some of our favorite professional photographers.
Some of these are investments, yes, but then again, that smartphone in your pocket was probably $1,000 or so, and you’re bound to replace it every other year. These top travel cameras below, however (with two obvious exceptions at the end) are made to last a lifetime—just like the memories they capture.
Best Travel Cameras for the Globetrotting Adventurer
Best Travel Cameras for Landscapes and Street Photography
FujiFilm GFX 100S
“When I set out for a year-long adventure crossing Africa south to north, I chose a Fuji GFX as my primary camera,” says August Dering, travel and portrait photographer, and photography masterclass instructor. “It’s a game changer, able to take a robust, weather-sealed, medium format camera into the wild. The resolution, dynamic range, and optical quality are outstanding—and the latest cameras have incredibly effective image stabilization, which was completely unheard of in medium format photography just a few years ago. Fuji is just killing it with the entire GFX system.
[$5,999; fujifilm-x.com]
Get itLeica M10-R
“I like to travel as light as possible, too, so I’m always on the lookout for the best image quality in the smallest package, and Leica delivers in spades with the M-10R. This is the first high-resolution sensor in the legendary M series, which makes it particularly appealing for landscape photography. I think a lot of people only associate the M series with street photography and reportage (they are phenomenal for that), but with a gorgeous 40 megapixel sensor and some of the best lenses ever made, landscape photographers should take a serious look at this delightful little beast.”
[$8,300; leica-camera.com]
Get itBest Travel Cameras for Food Photography
FujiFilm X-E4 with XF35mm F/1.4 lens
“FujiFilm’s X-E4 is perfectly designed for moments of spontaneity,” says Linda Pugliese, food, travel, and still life photographer. “The lens works well for shooting single plates of food or standing on a chair to get a little bit of the tablescape. It holds up in low light and the depth of field lends itself well to beautiful portraits. It’s the ideal grab-and-go camera that maintains quality and control.

Get itRolleiflex SL35 fitted with 50mm F/1.8 Zeiss lens
“In slower moments, when I’m cooking with friends, traveling for pleasure, and have the time to really sit, plan, and wait for the instant I want to capture, I prefer to shoot with my old-school Rollei,” says Pugliese. “For me, shooting with film is a meditative act. The camera itself is a little quirky, so the end result is always a bit of a surprise. That’s all part of the fun, making the camera a collaborator and not just a tool.” You can find the Rollei camera and lens on sites like eBay.
[Price varies; ebay.com]
Get itBest Travel Cameras for High Speeds
Sony Alpha 7 III
“A lot of what I shoot involves speed or a reactionary need for it, and that lends itself to having smaller cameras,” says Sam Hurly, car and lifestyle photographer. Luckily, the smaller ones can compete better with the larger bodies every year. My personal favorite for form, price, and power is the Sony A7 line, namely the A7 III, at present. I’ve found an amazing balance of megapixels, 10 photos per second, shooting with a large enough RAW buffer to keep the average trigger-happy dad covered—not to mention a sub-$2,000 price tag. (The fourth generation is set to be released soon, so used ones will become even more accessible.)
[$1,999; sony.com]
Get itSony RX100
“A secondary choice on the go is simply a point-and-shoot camera. I also stick with Sony here; its RX100 line offers size, speed, and specs. Again, the line between size and performance is so blurred these days that a camera the size of a phone can outperform professional cameras of old. And yes, they still shoot better than smartphones; why else would they make them?”

Get itBest Travel Cameras for Winter Weather and Sports
Canon Bodies with L-Series Lenses
“When it comes to being in sometimes brutal wintery environments, you don’t have the luxury of changing lenses a lot to keep the elements away from the back of the lens or the sensor of the body,” says Chris Wellhausen, sport photographer, photojournalist, and Men’s Journal contributor. Wellhausen is a 20-year Canon devotee, and relies heavily on their bodies and lenses for his high-altitude, fast-paced pictures. “Canon’s 70-200mm is a go-to lens because it can create a diverse array of compositions whether the action is semi-close or farther away at a distance. It covers a great range for most action, and is a real nice lens for portraits, too. It’s built with a metal lens mount and has a decent rubber seal when it meets the camera body. As for the R3 body, that’s rock n’ roll to me. It brings everything together; the moment, sharp as can be, captured on a premium sensor, with a mirrorless experience. These bodies are built to be rugged. I also love the motordrive capabilities of 30 frames per second on an endless buffer.”
[Price varies; canon.com]
Get itBest Camera for Candids
Ilford XP2 Harman Super Single-Use Black & White Camera with Flash (27 Exposures)
“You’ve already got a smartphone in your pocket, which takes incredible candid photos,” says Paul Octavious, portrait, still, and lifestyle photographer, and founder of Black Archivist. “But nothing compares to the thrill of film, and not knowing what you get. Just point, click, snap, and move on—no double checking to make sure everyone looks perfect. Ilford’s Harman Black & White Camera gives you 27 exposures for 19 bucks. Twenty years ago, that price would shock people, but now it’s a true art (and joy) to have film developed—and you’ll savor the travel memories all the more, than if they’re lost in a scroll of 50,000 other thumbnails on your device.

Get itBest Smartphone and Apps for Travel Photography
Apple iPhone
“I’ve always trusted Apple and their cameras for the clean, minimal aesthetic of the phone and its software, and because the navigation is so user-friendly,” says Beau Sam, commercial videographer and lifestyle photographer. “I also think iPhones are exceptionally good at capturing stills and video in natural light, particularly with color and tone. Because I’m a video director, I find the stabilization function on the new iPhone 13 Pro especially helpful. It allows me to shoot handheld while still delivering smooth cinematic shots. Even with a shaky hand and clumsy feet, you can still get really seamless shots because of the stabilization motor.
Get it
VSCO
“As for editing, I use VSCO mainly because you can easily preset filters for both stills and videos, so you can apply and post quickly in real time,” Sam says. “But the best way to get a good shot on your smartphone—which leads to less editing—is controlling and locking the light. (On iPhones, you tap on the subject of the shot, then adjust the light to that thing, and keep holding on that spot until the photo captures.) This is helpful so you don’t become overexposed or unfocused during the shot. For videos, it ensures that your light stays consistent, too.”

Frederic Aasbo Returns to Champion’s Podium in 2021 Formula DRIFT PRO Finals
A hard-fought Final Round back at Southern California’s famed Irwindale Speedway (a.k.a. The House of Drift) crowned a pair of title-takers in the 2021 Formula DRIFT PRO and its feeder Link ECU PROSPEC Championships—complete with all the predictable energy, drama, and incredible driving talent both series have demonstrated all season.
After half a dozen misses since claiming the 2015 FD PRO title, Norway’s Frederic Aasbo took the PRO competition trophy with some flawless work in his Rockstar Energy Drink Toyota GR Supra and steady support from the Papadakis team. Aasbo’s point totals from four second-place finishes and an earlier Round win in St. Louis helped him claim this year’s DRIFT crown.
“It’s been six years since we won the first Championship and this was a much harder fight,” said Aasbo after descending the podium. “I’d been in a slump and wasn’t sure if I had it anymore—but I think it’s pretty clear I still do, which gives me renewed energy to prepare for 2022.”
In the PRO Qualifying round, Aasbo would foreshadow the evening with a nearly perfect 95 points before the real fight began—against the season’s second-place finisher Matt Field (USA) and Aurimas Bakshis, who led a stunning 100 point, Round 8 victory during the event, catapulting the Lithuanian driver to 3rd overall for 2021.
“I came into this Round putting pressure on myself to make up points so I could stand on the Championship podium and we did it!” Bakchis gushed. “Winning it energizes me to get that Championship win next year.”
In the Link ECU PROSPEC competition—with 13 drivers in the mathematical running to take the title—reigning champion Dmitry Brutskiy prevailed, making history as the competition’s first two-time winner, vindicating a decision to remain in PROSPEC this season rather than opting to move up to the PRO Championship premier league.
“The back-to-back win was a lot of work but I’m super-excited,” said Brutskiy, who claimed to be open to an FD PRO move at this point—while perhaps aiming for a third PROSPEC championship instead. “My goal was a podium at every round, which we achieved after some really close battles … I’m looking forward to whatever comes next.”
Saturday night’s FD Final Round spectacle in Irwindale was capped by some notable announcements from Formula DRIFT icons. 2011 FD PRO Champion Dai Yoshihara (Japan) is retiring, and 2010 and 2020 FD PRO Champion Vaughn Gittin Jr. is leaving the series to pursue other projects.
Finally, Formula DRIFT president and co-founder Jim Liaw announced he will be moving to PRI while retaining a role in the series—and welcomed Vice President Ryan Sage as the next President of Formula DRIFT Holdings, LLC.
“After the trials we had to overcome in 2020, it was incredible to see fans back here at Irwindale, witnessing the phenomenal driving,” said Liaw after the race. “It’s bittersweet for me because this will be my last event as President, but I’m so happy to end on a magnificent high with another exciting final. I look forward to seeing what 2022 brings and I know Ryan Sage will continue to strengthen and improve Formula DRIFT.”
Formula DRIFT will announce its upcoming 2022 schedule at an upcoming press conference. For more information and the latest updates for next season visit formulad.com.

U.N. Report Shows Greenhouse Gases Hit an All-time High. Are We Screwed?
According to a new report from the World Meteorological Organization (WMO), levels of greenhouse gases have never been higher. And despite a temporary reduction of emissions during the pandemic, greenhouse gases continue to increase. On the eve of a U.N. climate change conference in Scotland, the report has a clear message. What countries are doing right now to fight climate change isn’t going to be enough.
When 192 countries signed the Paris climate agreement in 2015, the goal was to keep mean global temperatures below 2˚C (3.6˚F) above pre-industrial levels. Ideally, they would limit any increase to 1.5˚C (2.7˚F). With the rising levels of carbon dioxide, methane, and nitrous oxide, those goals are in serious jeopardy.
The Paris climate agreement is already out of date
“At the current rate of increase in greenhouse gas concentrations, we will see a temperature increase by the end of this century far in excess of the Paris Agreement targets of 1.5 to 2 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels,” WMO Secretary-General Professor Petteri Taalas said in a press release. “We are way off track.”
Increasing temperatures mean more extreme weather. In the U.S., we’re seeing worse fire seasons, poor air quality and, most recently in California, a ‘bomb cyclone.’ Higher temperatures also contribute to ice melt, rising sea levels, and ocean acidification. It’s no wonder that an earlier U.N. climate report called this a ‘code red for humanity.’
For Taalas, the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere was particularly troubling.
“This is more than just a chemical formula and figures on a graph. It has major negative repercussions for our daily lives and well-being, for the state of our planet and for the future of our children and grandchildren,” said Taalas.
The WMO report points to the Amazon as one example for the rise in greenhouse gases. In the past, the Amazon has been a carbon sink, absorbing CO2 and helping keep a global carbon balance. But due to decades of deforestation and changing climate, parts of the Amazon are now producing carbon and adding to the problem.
Taalas says many countries are setting carbon neutral targets. But, he hopes the climate change conference will yield bigger changes.
“We need to transform our commitment into action that will have an impact of the gases that drive climate change .We need to revisit our industrial, energy and transport systems and whole way of life. The needed changes are economically affordable and technically possible,” said Taalas. “There is no time to lose.”

Apple’s Newest Fall-Detection Tech Could Literally Save Your Life
Back in 2018, with the arrival of the Apple Watch Series 4, the Cupertino tech giant unveiled technology that proved to be life saving—time and time again.
Part of the wearable revolution is measuring aspects of normal human function. To measure calorie expenditure, motion capture is baked in. The same goes for heart rate monitoring. Apple engineers realized as they measured “normal” motion and activity, they were also gleaning an algorithmic signature. When you walk and run, it’s a consistent pattern that gets measured by the accelerometer, gyroscope, and GPS. But when you fall or get hit by a cross-town bus (let’s hope that’s never the case), that creates “noise” in the signal, breaking the smooth, cyclical pattern.
There’s the brute-force impact of multiple Gs, but also the hard stop of the GPS. You’re not moving, so the signal is entirely different. This, in a nutshell, is fall detection. You’ve gone from a normal state of motion to something that could be deadly.
From that 2018 tech release, a litany of news reports confirmed fall detection did what the company intended: save lives. Because it’s not necessarily the fall that gets ya—it’s the fact that nobody’s there to call for help, or at least not as quickly as automated tech, like an Apple Watch, can enable.
How fall detection works on the Apple Watch
Watch Series 4, 5, 6, and now 7 all have fall detection and are measuring the aforementioned motion signatures. A sudden change in those metrics—detected as a fall—triggers a very loud alarm on the Watch as well as haptic feedback, and fires up a display on the screen to ensure you’re okay. You can call EMS or dismiss the alert by saying you’re fine. If that actually was a car that pegged you and you weren’t moving, Apple Watch would automatically make the call to 911. (More on opting in/out of these features below.)
Note: A Watch with its own eSIM doesn’t need that SIM service enabled to make the call. It’ll ring EMS and share your location so they can respond. It’ll also ping your emergency contact(s) with this critical info. If your Apple Watch doesn’t have an eSIM, it’ll use your paired phone to send that bat signal.
Now for workouts…
Apple knew once they enabled this tech they were about to learn a heck of a lot more about how we fall, like when and how. The Apple Heart and Movement Study allowed Apple to see anonymized data about all kinds of falls from 150,000 users who’ve opted in thus far (anyone with an Apple Watch Series 1 or newer can opt in). That led to the capture of over 1.3 million workouts—the equivalent of 880,000 sweat sessions, or roughly 100 years of workouts.
What’s important is this was “just everyday people of all different levels, beginners to experts, doing the sport they love,” says Ron Huang, vice president of Sensing and Connectivity at Apple, who spearheads fall detection at Apple.
With so many users, Apple was able to analyze a vastly broad set of people across age groups and gender working out in every sport the Watch can track. Plus, because the data ran through all seasons and every kind of weather, they also began to see seasonal patterns.
Fall detection also works in fitness apps that have incorporated Apple’s API (not just the native Workout app). Here are some of the most popular:
- Strava: best for running and cycling
- Nike Run Club: best for running
- snoww: best for skiing
- SwingVision: best for tennis
- Wikiloc: best for hiking and mountaineering
- Slopes: best for ski and snowboard
- Redpoint: best for bouldering and climbing
- Viewranger: best for hiking, biking, and walking
This is all in an effort to diagnose what distinguishes a fall from a regular event during a sport. Curious about the distinction?
Apple captured thousands of real-world falls during the study, then cross-referenced those events by interviewing participants to confirm the data collection. The anecdotal and empirical data paint a more vivid picture. Apple believes they can detect the distinct signature of an accident versus an intended action—like falling backwards as opposed to deliberately diving for a volleyball or a checking a player on a hockey rink, says Huang.
For another example, let’s take mountain biking. “If you’re riding and going for a jump,” says Huang, “the direction of impact will be highly directional and on a single axis.” If you crash, the accelerometer and gyroscope pick up chaotic motions with your wrist. Obviously if you’re riding a mountain bike, your wrist should be moving in a consistent pattern. If it’s suddenly not, the Watch jolts to attention.
Apple looked at consistent movement across every kind of activity in the Workout app, since they had data on falls during walks, runs, HIIT workouts, hikes, yoga, Tai Chi, mountain biking, and more. If it’s in the app, they had data to support the movement pattern as well as the falls that disrupt it.
Huang did note there are complexities to measuring all these movement patterns that required a great deal of careful study, because the wrist isn’t necessarily an ideal location for analyzing how we hit a ball, stand on our heads, punch, or dive into a pool. It’s on one end and side of your body. He noted that some studies have had testers wearing a device on their torsos, so you know that when the sensor is upright, they’re standing or seated; when it’s not, they’ve hit the deck.
But the upside to the Watch is “it’s something they’re already using, not something else they’ve got to remember to bring with them.” However, he did say that if they got their math wrong “you could be watching a concert clapping really hard and that’s a huge impact on the wrist,” so Huang and his team at Apple also had to be concerned about triggering a false alarm effect, since having the Watch blaring all the time, sensing falls that didn’t happen, could lead users to turn the system off.
How to enable fall detection on your iPhone and Apple Watch
The process is simple. If you have Apple Watch Series 4 or newer, update to the new watchOS 8.1. If you’re 55 or over, you’re already covered for fall detection. For everyone 18 and up, the new OS will automate fall detection during workouts. But accidents happen, so if you want to enable fall detection no matter what, go to the Watch app, then tap Settings > Emergency SOS > Fall Detection to enable or disable.
iPhone users should go to Settings > Health > and Medical ID to fill out fields for allergies and other underlying health concerns, then decide if you want to enable EMS dispatchers to see this data. That will show up on your wrist if you own an Apple Watch Series 4 or newer, and will also be sent to the dispatcher so you’re relaying info that could be lifesaving.
As for what’s next, Apple’s already learning about when the elderly need to exercise to improve or regain strength to walk more safely. A study of Watch data would likely reveal microchanges in our patterns that could lead to more granular advice for those of us who aren’t old, but are no longer quite as fast, limber, or ripped—and want specific tips based on our own specific movement physiology to get back to that higher baseline.

Go Against the Grain With These Flavorful Gluten-Free Beers
Whether you’re gluten free or simply looking to consume less gluten, you already know these potentially health-compromising grain proteins find their way into far more stuff than just bread—including beer. While nixing any comfort staple is never fun, gluten-free beers (just like gluten-free bread) have come a long way. Bold, nuanced, flavorful brews are out there—but first, what exactly is gluten-free beer?
“Gluten-free beer is made from gluten-free grains like sorghum, rice, millet, and buckwheat—or from gluten-containing grains like wheat, barley, or rye that’ve been processed to remove gluten before the fermentation process,” says Jeanne Reid, marketing manager of Gluten Intolerance Group. “Gluten-removed beers don’t qualify as gluten-free in the U.S. because they start from gluten-containing grains, and brewers try to remove the gluten after fermentation,” she adds—noting her organization’s research has shown that celiac disease patients do react to gluten-removed beers.
Gluten-free beers appear to be on the upswing, though.
“Nearly 25 percent of U.S. shoppers are choosing a gluten-free diet—and the availability of high-quality, great-tasting gluten-free beer is steadily increasing,” says Reid. “Beer drinkers may look to avoid gluten due to uncomfortable symptoms, a desire for increased health and performance, and/or to treat medical conditions such as celiac disease.”
If you’re ready to make the switch for yourself (or even in solidarity with a buddy who can’t tolerate gluten), here are 10 exceptional gluten-free beers worth snatching up. If you’re gluten free for medical reasons, be sure to reach out to the brewery with any questions you may have about the company’s production facility, in addition to seeking qualified advice from a healthcare professional.
