Cold therapy procedure slims, tones problem areas

A

s we inch closer to summer, we start to pay attention to the parts of us that we’ve hidden under sweaters and coats all winter.

That’s when procedures such as Cryoskin — a noninvasive procedure used to slim, tone and reduce cellulite — can be helpful. It’s done through cold therapy sessions under 30 minutes in which fat cells are destroyed and then naturally excreted through the body (i.e. sweat, urine, etc.)

Cryoskin is offered at Beauty Mark Boutique, 546 Spruce St., Scranton, and there are two types of Cryoskin sessions. Slimming is a three-phase thermal shock to help naturally destroy fat cells. This is preferable for those looking to lose fat on their stomach, thighs, arms or back. Toning is a 20-minute cold therapy session that improves microcirculation and speeds up metabolism, resulting in higher collagen production. Toning is recommended for facials or to reduce cellulite. For the best results, a five-session package ($300) is recommended. Single sessions cost $350.

I recently had two toning sessions done (a facial and cellulite reduction treatment) at the store. I want to tell you about my experience.

Before Before your session, call the Beauty Mark to schedule a free consultation to see which is right for you. I got a facial and a cellulite reduction session on the back of my thighs.

As far as preparation, I went makeup- and spray tan-free. Those who are pregnant, have sensitivity to cold, Raynaud’s syndrome, cancer, kidney or liver disease are not candidates for Cryoskin. If you have any medical concerns, consult your doctor beforehand.

If you have had cosmetic injections within the past two to three months, you cannot receive Cryoskin, either.

During I’ll admit I was terrified before my first ses-

sion because I’d heard about similar procedures resulting in bruising, swelling and maybe some pain. I didn’t need to be worried, though, because there’s zero downtime after Cryoskin. Cryoskin uses precise temperature control to reduce fat without damaging surrounding tissue.

The technician runs a wand that reaches -8 degrees over your skin. To me, both sessions felt like a massage, and while it was cold, it was never unbearable.

After After my facial, my skin looked and felt better immediately. My face had a sculpted, lifted look — similar to celebrities on the red carpet.

(My mom told me I actually looked like I was glowing.) With the slimming session on my thighs, my cellulite was almost nonexistent after one session, and my skin was way smoother. I do not do my squats like I should, but I also felt like my butt sat up higher and had that shelf look. There wasn’t much aftercare, except I tried my best to avoid simple carbs, such as bread or pasta, over the next two weeks just because it could interfere with the treatment’s efficiency. According to Beauty Mark owner Carrie Thorne, the best results will appear about two to three weeks after the first session and extend for months afterward.

I would definitely recommend a Cryoskin facial before a big event or cellulite reduction before a beach vacation where you’ll show more skin. I only had toning sessions, not slimming. Though it depends on the person and his or her lifestyle, Thorne said clients will see results from the first slimming session and continue to lose inches over the recommended five sessions.

Are we all beautiful in our own skin, cellulite and all? YES. I didn’t write this to tell you to get this done. I did it because, if these areas are things that don’t make you feel good about yourself, then you are 1,000% in your right to do something about it. Look good, feel better.

Duo transforms buffet into trendy Japanese eatery

I

chEf’s tablE

BY PATRICE WILDING Staff Writer

n Dickson City, diners can get a taste of delicacies typically found half a world away thanks to Tokyo Hibachi & Sushi Steakhouse.

Housed in the space formerly occupied by Old Country Buffet on Commerce Boulevard, the restaurant offers high-end Japanese food (with a few Thai dishes added on) in a completely transformed dining area. Upon entry, guests are greeted by sleek, neon uplighting and white walls textured by a wave motif. It took more than eight months of redesign and renovation to achieve the trendy, metropolitan effect, said Katie Yu, a native of Fujian, China, who co-owns the restaurant with her chef husband, Vinny Lian.

“We wanted it to feel different and comfortable, and definitely professional,” Yu said.

The couple lived in New York City for more than a decade, where Lian honed his culinary skills in upscale city restaurants. During a visit with Lian’s first cousin, Maggie Dong, who owns the nearby Royal Buffet, the duo were so impressed with Northeast Pennsylvania that they decided to relocate and make it their home.

“We loved the area,” Yu said. “It’s a friendly area. And compared to New York, there (was) not a lot of authentic Japanese (dining).”

Though Lian worked in numerous Chinese restaurants in downtown Brooklyn, he and his wife chose to switch to Japanese for their NEPA venture because it seemed fancier and more gourmet.

With seating for about 200 throughout its main dining area, sushi bar, cocktail lounge area and numerous grill-top tables, Tokyo Hiba-

chi & Sushi Steakhouse has become a destination for those celebrating special occasions, such as holidays, birthdays, anniversaries and graduation parties. Three private rooms offer space for groups holding meetings and gatherings. For birthdays, the celebrant is treated to a free hibachi meal from a limited selection.

From the regular menu, Yu recommended Edamame, Crispy Calamari and the Sushi appetizer, as well as the Seaweed Salad, which is her favorite. From the a la carte list, the Yellowtail Jalapeño, Pepper Tuna and Salmon rolls can’t be beat, while the Incredible Roll (shrimp tem-

pura with avocado inside and spicy crab), Volcano (eel, spicy tuna, scallop, kani and fish roe), Phoenix (shrimp tempura, spicy tuna and avocado with special sauce) and White Swan (white tuna, tempura and avocado inside with yellowtail jalapeño) give the best presentation thanks to Lian’s artistic hand.

He crafted the menu not only based on his work experience but also by what he expected his customers to like, he said through translator and family friend Shu Qiu. “Customers always say the food is amazing and the chefs are very funny,” Yu said. “Kids love to come here because we have huge plates and they can

Pierogi and more ethnic goodies in spotlight at festival

W

BY GIA MAZUR Staff Writer

hen the Edwardsville Hometown Committee met to plan its first event six years ago, it was supposed to be a celebration of the borough.

Then came talk of pierogi.

Throughout the planning, group members reminisced about the church bazaars they had growing up, but the conversation quickly turned to the food and the borough’s rich Polish heritage every time, said Jacqueline Moran, president of Edwardsville Hometown Committee.

“When it became the Pierogi Festival, that’s when it all took off,” she said. “Everybody loves food.”

The sixth annual Edwardsville Pierogi Festival runs Friday, June 7, from noon to 10 p.m. and Saturday, June 8, from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. at John Hopkins Memorial Park on High Street. This is the second year the festival will occur at the park, after previously taking place on Main Street, which organizers feel makes for not only a safer event but also one accessible to people with disabilities and children in strollers. “(The move) was very wellreceived last year,” Moran said.

“We got a lot of positive feedback.”

Just like in years past, festivalgoers can sample a wide variety of ethnic foods at the event, including haluski, kielbasa, Welsh cookies and, of course, pierogi. New vendor Cal’s Concessions will serve a spin on its deep-fried balls wrapped in bacon.

The “balls” will be pierogi with fillings such as bacon cheeseburger.

“We’re growing every year,” Moran said, adding there’s almost 30 food vendors.

The annual parade steps off Saturday at 11 a.m., and the annual pierogi cookoff begins that afternoon at 2 on a stageunderneaththebigtoptent,with local “celebrity” judges and a member of the public. Anyone interested in becoming the public judge may buy a $5 ticket for a chance to win the spot at the cookoff. Those tickets will be on sale at the committee stand, and the winnerof therafflewillbeannounced

Friday night. Categories in the cookoff include best church pierogi, best vendor pierogi and best individual home-cooked pierogi.

Aside from the food, guests also can peruse goods from craft and commercial vendors. There will be musical acts all weekend long under the big top and fun for children, including escape rooms, a slimemaking tent, Nerf wars and more.

“We’re always looking to add more things for kids to do,” Moran said.

The Edwardsville Hometown Committee remains committed to giving back, Moran said. Proceeds from the Pierogi Festival benefit dozens of community events and organizations. Over the past six years, the committee has donated equipment for the fire department and a teddy bear for each police car, sponsored events such as free movies in the park and Easter and fall events for kids, planted trees along the borough’s Main Street and more.

“It makes us happy to pay it forward,” Moran said.

Up Close & Personal

A:

As a young girl, Maggie Calpin aspired to run her own business, but she didn’t know what kind. At just 24, though, she accomplished that goal when she bought Nibbles & Bits, now located at 205 S. Blakely St. in Dunmore. She later became a certified chocolatier so she can contribute as a chef, when needed, at the store. So far in her 10 years as a business owner, she has earned many accolades, including the 2018 Irish Echo Small Business Big IMPACT 50 Award, and was named one of the Northeast Pennsylvania Business Journal’s Top 25 Women in Business. Calpin is a graduate of Wyoming Seminary; Keystone College, where she studied business; and Empire Beauty School, where she received her cosmetology license. She lives in Dunmore with her rescue dogs, Lucy and Gussie.

Meet Maggie Calpin...

Q: A:

How did you get into the craft of being a chocolatier?

I dabbled in Nibbles & Bits during beauty school. I would work during holiday seasons on weekends. It was cute, fun, and I made gifts all day. My sister said to me Nibbles & Bits was for sale. It just spoke to me, as weird as that sounds. I thought I should buy it. We’re baskets first, then chocolate, but all feel-good items. We started doing chocolate because most customers would order gift baskets and ask for candy or chocolate or something sweet along with other items. In 2013, I became a certified chocolatier. There were many people who graduated from the Culinary Institute of America teaching me. They showed me everything from truffle-making to hand-dipping, to making caramel and everything in between. I was naturally good at it and thought it was cool.

Q: A:

Describe the artwork that goes into your edible products.

We hand-make, hand-cut and hand-roll everything. For the decorations, we have meetings every other Monday. Right now, we’re doing fruit truffles, all made with real fruits. The (decal) flowers are pretty for spring. The Oreos, right now, have decals on them. When I think of summer, I think of barbecue season, so they have hot dogs and watermelons on them. We have a big white board that we hand write every idea and goal. We all chime in.

Your treats are often used on wedding days or other very special

10 J u n e 6 , 2 0 1 9

Q: A:

What is the most memorable custom piece you’ve created?

We had a customer call us. She wrote a book, and she was interviewed by Martha Stewart, and she had us send a gift basket to Martha Stewart in New York City. I even considered hand-delivering it. Not that we’d get past security, but just to make sure it got there in tact. The other exciting time was when we were up to get on QVC. QVC was adding a category for gift baskets. They came across our website and liked it. They had us send a bunch of baskets to them to check for quality assurance; everything was great, it passed, and then the category got dropped. In business, those things happen, but those are probably the two neatest orders.

Q: A:

What is something being a business owner has taught you?

I’ve been in business for 10 years. My mentor from the Small Business Development Center at the University of Scranton, Lisa Hall, said to me, “Before you get in business, you need to be prepared, you’re going to get burned.” There was this naive part of me that had no idea what she was talking about. I was burned numerous times by random salespeople who sold me a pitch, and next thing you know, you’re signing over a huge check and have no idea what you’re doing. There are things like that you wish you could go back and think about it. Being so young and realizing that not everyone has your best interest. I also learned I can get through a lot of stuff. Things happen in your personal life, but I had to put those aside and continue to work. We had a fire and could have shut down the store, but we didn’t. We shut down for a day, then popped a tent up the next day. My oldest sister passed away from breast cancer around Christmastime two years ago. That’s my busiest season, so I worked the day of her viewing and managed to get the orders out. I’m glad I was able to get through those things and be OK.

Q: A:

What is your favorite treat food other than your own chocolate?

I love diet Sunkist. I know it’s not good for you, but that’s probably my weakness. For snacks, I love peppermint patties.

It’s so strange, I know.

Q:

occasions. What emotions come along with being part of someone’s big day?

I never really thought of it that way, to be honest. I love what I do. I love making gifts for people, and I love seeing them excited and happy. I didn’t think of the aftermath of how they feel other than I hope they love the gifts and the deliciousness. I never realized that my gift baskets might be part of the whole “new mom experience.” That is really cool.

14:51 | CORNELLCHR

Q: A:

What hobbies, interests or community involvement do you have?

I’m a Scranton Chamber of Commerce member. I’m part of a group called Circle 200; it’s all women in our area. It’s a lot of business owners and some doctors and lawyers. I was the president of the Green Ridge Business Association for two years and was one of the founders of the Green Ridge Fall Fest. I introduced myself to everybody and asked them if they liked to have parties.

Someone told me there used to be a business association back in the ’70s. We started planning for a fall festival and wanted to get the community out and see what we have going on. I’m a part of MetroAction’s board of trustees, too, and a founder of Boss Ladies. I like the driving range when I get a chance to hit golf balls. I am always up for anything.

Q: A

Can you pinpoint a specific moment or event in life that helped change your perspective on something? : When I got the phone call one night about the store being damaged badly after a fire, I was scared. I went to see it, and

the storefront was completely ruined. I was in my mid to late 20s, and every penny I’ve ever earned had been put into that. I considered filing for bankruptcy. I was truly scared and didn’t know what to do. I had no other income coming in. I always have a plan A, B, C and D, but I ran out of backup plans. The next day, I called my friend who has a tent company and hitched a tent outside, wiped the tears away and thought, “Let’s do this.”

I’ve had all this stuff thrown at me, but I keep going. Through some hiccups in life, including the death of my two sisters from cancer and a divorce, I saw a therapist who told me I’m like a phoenix. I kind of rise up from the fire. The (store) fire really was rock bottom for me, but this mindset to keep going was really emulated in the fire.

DIY makers and punk culture combine for Weird & Wired bazaar

BY CLARE COLLINS staff writer

C

elebrate the creativity and authenticity of DIY culture this weekend at the Weird & Wired Punk Bazaar and Zine Expo.

On Saturday, June 8, more than 60 vendors from Northeast Pennsylvania and the tri-state area will showcase their unique, alternative MEONI art and collectibles at the flea market-style event, which will be held in St. Mary’s Center, 320 Mifflin Ave., Scranton, from noon to 5 p.m. Admission is $2 at the door or at eventbrite.com

(where online fees will apply).

Female DJ duo SaturBae will provide music all afternoon as guests peruse wares, and the Bog, 341 Adams Ave., Scranton, will host an afterparty of New Wave music selected by Quoth starting at 8 p.m.

The bazaar will include a variety of items, such as retro toys, vinyl records, vintage clothing, ethicallysourced bone jewelry, video games and staples of underground, DIY culture, including patches, stickers, buttons and zine publications.

Jess Meoni, event creator and organizer, explained that she feels passionately about displaying artwork that may seem unconventional, especially in the centrally locat-

ed, artistic city of Scranton.

“I really enjoy giving a voice to people who may think their ar twork is strange or out there,” Meoni said. “Especially when it brings people together for community causes.”

After Meoni attended the larger-scale Philly Zine Fest in 2010, she knew she wanted to bring a similar event to Scranton. She put together the inaugural Scranton Zinefest in 2011, and in 2018, she added Not Another Punk Rock Flea Market as a n a l t e r n at ive m a rke t where artists could showcase their work. In combining these two previously successful events, the Weird and Wired Punk Bazaar and Zine Expo was born.

Everyone has something to bring to the table, Meoni noted, and their art should be appreciated.

“I chose the name ‘Weird & Wired’ to convey the unusual, different works of art that will be displayed, but also the devotion and time these artists put into their work,” Meoni said.

FILM

Olivia Wilde makes impressive directing debut with original take on familiar coming-of-age story

O

ne of my favorite moments in any movie so far this year comes early in Olivia Wilde’s wonderful “Booksmart,” when a group of cynical burnouts make fun of a Yalebound honors student, and she responds by painting a devastating picture of their respective futures.

It’s a classic triumphantunderdog moment, but the group’s reaction to the speech is an eye-opener for the honors student — and for us, as it serves notice we could be in for a refreshingly original take on the familiar last-week-of-high-school coming-of-age movie.

Indeed, thanks to an impressive feature directing debut by Wilde; one of the sharpest and funniest screenplays of the year, courtesy of Susanna Fogel, Emily Halpern, Sarah Haskins and Katie Silberman; and the absolutely winning lead performances by Kaitlyn Dever a n d B e a n i e Fe l d s t e i n , “Booksmart” lives up to that early promise, consistently delivering big laughs and sharp insights.

Certain elements are reminiscent of high school movies ranging from “Risky Business” to “Fast Times at Ridgemont High” to “The Breakfast Club” to “Say Anything” to “Superbad” to “Easy A,” and “Booksmart” often presents familiar characters and situations: the gigantic blowout party, the last chance to reveal one’s true feelings to a longtime crush, well-meaning but clueless parents, the misunderstood “weirdo” kid, the big fight between best friends, etc.

But in virtually every scenario, director Wilde and the team of screenwriters serve

up the material in a fresh and original manner.

Beanie Feldstein is the outwardly self-assured and ultra-focused Molly, who owns every room she enters with her larger-than-life personality, and Kaitlyn Dever is her best friend, Amy, who’s just as funny and smart as Molly but operates in a much quieter key. For four years, Molly and Amy have devoted nearly every waking hour to studies and resume-padding extracurricular activities,

Stars: Kaitlyn Dever, Beanie Feldstein Rated: R for strong sexual content and language throughout, drug use and drinking — all involving teens Running time: 102 min.

Grade: ★★★ 1/2 and it’s paid off, as Molly is bound for Yale and Amy will be attending Columbia.

Only now, extremely late in the game — like, they’reabout-to-graduate late in the game — does it occur to Molly and Amy they might have been able to excel academically AND actually allow themselves to have a good time.

No problem. They’ll just

pack four years’ worth of partying and letting loose into a single night. What could possibly go right?

This kick-starts a medley of offbeat and seriously funny comedic vignettes, involving everything from rideshare hijinks to the world’s saddest yacht party to the obligatory hallucinatory drug sequence. Director Wilde has fun with some bold and creative stylistic choices, but it never feels like selfindulgent filmmaking. It’s a matter of a talented artist making some pretty cool moves in her first foray into full-length moviemaking.

Once we get to the raucous, supercharged party in an enormous house (when are high school movie par-

ents ever going to learn not to leave town when their children are about to graduate?), we follow a half-dozen interconnecting plotlines, as Molly begins to believe this could be a very special night with a certain guy, while Amy tries to get closer to the hipster skater girl (Victoria Ruesga) who seems to be equally interested in her as well.

One of the things I loved about “Booksmart” is how it finds room for the supporting characters, e.g., Skyler Gisondo’s obnoxious superwealthy kid and Diana Silvers’ gorgeous, insult-throwing Mean Girl, to get second and third scenes in which we learn they’re more complicated and often more sympathetic than our initial impressions.

But for all the sweet and smar t and revealing moments, “Booksmart” doesn’t shy away from the raunchy and silly and R-rated comedy, including a hilarious bit involving lesbian pornography, a bit of bathroom vomiting at the worst possible moment — and a bit about a sketchy pizza delivery driver that has a great payoff.

Beanie Feldstein and Kaitlyn Dever have terrific bestbuddy chemistry, and at heart that’s what “Booksmart” is — a buddy movie about two friends who are about to go their separate ways but will most likely stay in touch through college and remain close through the decades.

Because they’re not only book smart, they’re smarts m a r t , a nd t h e y k n ow what they have is something special.

RICHARD ROEPER reviews movies for The Chicago SunTimes. Distributed by Universal Press Syndicate.

Mini movies Aladdin: Despite a couple of large, genie-blue stumbles along the way, Guy Ritchie’s live-action version of Disney’s “Aladdin” is on balance a colorful and lively adventure suitable for all ages and a touching romance featuring two attractive leads. I liked the flying carpet, too. Rated PG for some action/peril. 128 minutes. ★★★ Godzilla: King of the Monsters: Five years after the world learned the hard way that supposedly mythic creatures are, in fact, real, everyone tries to figure out how to deal with them in a muddled and overlong sequel. As we get mired in heavy-handed lectures about how humans are the REAL monsters, it’s all so ... serious. Rated PG-13 for sequences of monster action violence and destruction, and for some language.

135 minutes. ★ 1/2 John Wick: Chapter 3: Parabellum: The third installment of the ultraviolent, wonderfully askew “John Wick” franchise is the most outlandish and maybe the most entertaining chapter to date. Keanu Reeves returns, giving a classic deadpan performance in an escapist movie that encourages us to groan and cringe and laugh at the mayhem. Rated R for pervasive strong violence, and some language. 131 minutes. ★★★ Rocketman: Hardly a standard showbiz biopic, this glitzy, ambitious and gorgeously appointed interpretive musical proves worthy of Elton John’s glorious artistry.

Taron Egerton delivers a powerful and resonant performance as the living music legend, and the film pulls no punches when focusing on Elton’s mercurial personality and deep dives into addiction. Rated R for language throughout, some drug use and sexual content. 121 minutes. ★★★ 1/2 GRADE: ★★★★ Excellent, ★★★ Good, ★★ Fair, ★ Poor.

Look to northern Italy for authentic pinot grigio

Barley a strong presence in Einstok’s Icelandic Wee Heavy

hat’s a real pinot grigio taste like?

Parties, wine lists and home wine racks seem to be awash in pinot grigio, or pinot grig (greezsh) as some call it.

Most of those pinot grigios can be zippy and quaffable. It’s the new chardonnay, which is to say that it is ubiquitous and often so mediocre that it can be easy to overlook.

But if you go back to one of the ancestral homelands of pinot grigio — Italy — and stay north, you can find some of the very best and most authentic pinot grigio from regions that have made it for generations.

White wine grapes like cooler weather.

Generally, Italy is fairly hot with a Mediterranean climate. But as you go north and hit the foothills of the Alps, you enter white wine country, Alto Adige. And not just the weather changes — the culture and people do as well, with the population appearing more Nordic and names more Germanic. The whites are richer and rounder, often receiving some modest barrel-aging for great effect.

Italy had been viewed as red wine country, even though whites have always been produced throughout the boot. In the last few decades, the whites around the country have improved, but those in the north were always very good.

Elena Walch 2017 Pinot Grigio Alto Adige throws off a beautiful smell of lemon chiffon and flavors of pear and honeysuckle.

This wine has a bit more body than the light, zippy pinot grigios, but it strikes an elegant balance between weight and acidity. $13. ★★★★

One of the best white wines I’ve had in a while is Peter Zemmer 2016 Riserva “Giatl” Pinot Grigio. Typically, I’d avoid a pinot grigio this old. But this complex, oakaged beauty is built to last and tasting great right now. The wine has a floral nose, citrus and peach character, and a silky texture with hints of cream that lead to a crisp finish.

This is a special-order wine in Pennsylvania. $37. ★★★★★ Peter Zemmer’s entry-level pinot grigio, 2017 Alto Adige — Südtirol has more zing, with citrus and melon character, nice texture and acids. This one is in the state’s specialty stores. $15. ★★★★ If you’d like to try some other expressions of pinot grigio, pick up a pinot gris — the same grape with a different name and often a different style — from the Pacific Northwest or Alsace, the Saxon-tinged region of France.

If you want to stay in Italy, the northeast part of the country, Della Venezie, makes inexpensive, crisp pinot grigio.

GRADE: Exceptional ★★★★★, Above average ★★★★, Good ★★★, Below average ★★, Poor ★.

ops are what makes beer bitter.

When you’re drinking an IPA, it’s what hits you on the tail end. It’s generally accepted that your beer is going to have that bitter bud in it.

It wasn’t always so, however. In the long history of beer, hops being such a prominent flavoring agent is actually kind of a new thing. As with many things beer, we can attribute it to the Germans.

In 1516, the Bavarian purity law listed three ingredients that were allowed in beer.

If it wasn’t hops, barely or water, it wasn’t allowed. Yeast wasn’t added to the list until a few centuries later. That important fermenting substance wasn’t included in the original law because it actually hadn’t been discovered yet. They were pretty serious about not having any adjuncts.

Before the law passed, gruitbier was quite popular. Instead of hops, gruitbier used a mix of herbs, such as yarrow or mugwart, to get that bitter flavor. These beers also used a variety of other flavorings that complimented the herb mixture, such as juniper berry, caraway, aniseed and mint. They have a very herbaceous profile and are interesting brews.

Herbs are making a comeback. Don’t get me wrong. I don’t think that hops is going anywhere anytime soon. That said, more and more brewers are looking into traditional recipes and putting their own spin on them.

For example, this week I’m drinking Einstok’s Icelandic Wee Heavy. It’s brewed with angelica root and smoked icelandic barley.

Wee Heavys, also known as Scotch ales, are similar to barley wines in that they have a very strong barley presence.

Smoked versions are not uncommon. This Scottish-style beer usually clocks in a little weaker than the stronger English barley wines, normally sitting somewhere between 6% to 9% ABV. That’s still plenty of punch, however. They’ll certainly do the trick.

The beer poured a thick, syrupy caramel color. There wasn’t a lot of head, but that’s to be expected. When beers get that boozy and thick, one doesn’t really expect to see a lot of foam. You want as much sugar fermented as possible to get those high

ABVs. Carbonation is an afterthought.

The brew smelled sweet like caramel. I also caught that smoky quality in the sniff as well. It’s not quite like a peaty whiskey, but it definitely was in there. Swirling around in the background was a bit of black licorice, almost certainly from the angelica.

The taste was incredibly malty up front, a bit like sweet bread — heavy on the caramel and thick on the tongue. It was really prominent. After it mellowed a bit, that caramel sweetness was interrupted by a good amount of smoke interspersed with an earthy, bitter flavor, almost certainly from the angelica. It also had a little bit of anise, likely from the same space.

I really enjoy beers with a heavy malt profile, and Einstok did not disappoint on that front. With its heavy flavors and smoky quality, I kept expecting to taste some wood, as a lot of its flavors are common in barrel-aged brews. It was neat that it never came, though. Instead, it left me with a mouth full of bitter herbs and campfire — a great transition from its sweet start. It may not exactly be traditional, but it’s a lot of fun.

SOUNDS / CALENDAR

Sounds BY MIKE EVANS Cayucas, Chemical Brothers offer welcome sequels while White Lies treads water White Lies — ‘Five’ THE GOOD: British post-punk outfit White Lies gives us its fifth.

THE BAD: The group’s “usual.”

THE NITTY GRITTY: White Lies possesses the habit of sounding like 16 other bands while STILL delivering at least a semi-enjoyable record. You simply have to adjust your expectations accordingly. One detects bits of Franz Ferdinand, Editors, Foals, Interpol, Wombats, the Killers and a host of others spread across all these tracks.

“Five” doesn’t move forward or backward. It’s just another textbook White Lies album overflowing with whirring synths, soaring guitars (that sound like whirring synths), thick rhythms and Harry McVeigh’s booming lead vocals. Mid-tempo tunes such as “Tokyo” and “Believe It” WILL grab you immediately with their bubbly keyboard lines and big choruses. There’s nothing wrong with that.

However, how many times will you come back? And if you already own past albums such as “To Lose My Life” and “Big TV,” do you need yet another variation on those releases? If these guys are indeed capable, the formula needs shaking up.

BUY IT?: Your call.

Cayucas — ‘Real Life’ THE GOOD: California twins Zach and Ben Yudin switch labels (they’re now on Park the Van) and return with a breezy third.

THE BAD: Nine tracks in 30 minutes might leave you craving more.

THE NITTY GRITTY: However, the guys keep matters bright and tight throughout “Real Life,” a sparkling indie pop record that pulls in elements from acts such as Telekinesis, Matt and Kim, Tennis, Local Natives and pretty much any other super-catchy outfit currently blurring the lines between guitar-based music and synth-heavy fare.

Tracks such as “Jessica W3” and “Winter of ’98” immediately pull us in with their bold melodies, echo-soaked harmonies and seamless bouncy backdrops. More somber bits, such as the cloying yet charming “Tears” and the quick fantasy “Naked Shower Scene,” give the record much-needed balance so we don’t overdose on sugar.

The formula hasn’t changed much during the four years since 2015’s “Dancing at the Blue Lagoon,” but that’s OK. Pleasure cruises are rarely disagreeable, and Cayucas hasn’t worn out its welcome.

BUY IT?: Sure.

The Chemical Brothers — ‘No Geography’ THE GOOD: Legendary British electronic duo the Chemical Brothers offers up a banging ninth.

THE BAD: “No Geography” isn’t as varied as most CB sets, but it doesn’t need to be.

THE NITTY GRITTY: Tom Rowlands and Ed Simons have never played dance music straight (and they DON’T here). However, the guys latch on to a central vibe and run with it throughout most of the record.

Most of these tracks hover around an even 120 BPM, several of them crashing into one another with a new cut building upon the previous cut’s momentum. We bounce to a seamless set that darts in and out of several mind-bending, neo-psychedelic territories.

You can’t help moving to this stuff, and you will be breaking a sweat sometime around the halfway point.

But that’s the album’s purpose. After visiting more cerebral and experimental settings on their past couple of records, the Brothers want to party, and they want US to have a good time, too. So go for it.

BUY IT?: Yes.

Free Will Astrology BY ROB BREZSNY ARIES (March 21-April 19): “I don’t think we were ever meant to hear the same song sung exactly the same way more than once in a lifetime,” said poet Linh Dinh.

That’s an extreme statement that I can’t agree with. But I understand what he’s driving at. Repeating yourself can be debilitating, even deadening. That includes trying to draw inspiration from the same old sources that have worked for you in the past. In accordance with current astrological omens, I suggest you try to minimize exact repetition in the next two weeks: both in what you express and what you absorb. For further motivation, here’s William S. Burroughs: “Truth may appear only once; it may not be repeatable.”

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Peter Benchley wrote the bestselling book “Jaws,” which was later turned into a popular movie.

It’s the story of a great white shark that stalks and kills people in a small beach town.

Later in his life, the Taurus author was sorry for its influence, which helped legitimize human predation on sharks and led to steep drops in shark populations. To atone, Benchley became an aggressive advocate for shark conservation.

If there’s any behavior in your own past that you regret, Taurus, the coming weeks will be a good time to follow Benchley’s lead: correct for your mistakes; make up for your ignorance; do good deeds to balance a time when you acted unconsciously.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Some birds can fly for days without coming down to earth. Alpine swifts are the current recordholders, staying aloft for 200 consecutive days as they chase and feed on insects over West Africa. I propose we make the swift your soul ally for the next three weeks. May it help inspire you to take maximum advantage of the opportunities life will be offering you. You will have extraordinary power to soar over the maddening crowd, gaze at the big picture of your life, and enjoy exceptional amounts of freedom.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): “I think gentleness is one of the most disarmingly and captivatingly attractive qualities there are,” wrote poet Nayyirah Waheed. That will be emphatically true about you in the coming weeks, Cancerian. Your poised, deeply felt gentleness will accord you as much power as other people might draw from ferocity and grandeur.

Your gentleness will enable you to crumble obstacles and slip past barriers. It will energize you to capitalize on and dissipate chaos. It will win you leverage that you’ll be able to use for months.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Is the Loch Ness monster real? Is there a giant sea serpent that inhabits the waters of Loch Ness in Scotland?

Tantalizing hints arise now and then, but no definitive evidence has ever emerged. In 1975, enterprising investigators got the idea to build a realistic-looking papier-mâché companion for Nessie and place it in Loch Ness. They hoped that this “honey trap” would draw the reclusive monster into more public view. Alas, the scheme went awry.

(Lady Nessie got damaged when she ran into a jetty.)

But it did have some merit. Is there an equivalent approach you might employ to generate more evidence and insight about one of your big mysteries, Leo? What strategies might you experiment with? The time is right to hatch a plan.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Earlier in your life, you sometimes wrestled with dilemmas that didn’t deserve so much of your time and energy. They weren’t sufficiently essential to invoke the best use of your intelligence. But over the years, you have ripened in your ability to attract more useful and interesting problems. Almost imperceptibly, you have been growing smarter about recognizing which riddles are worth exploring and which are better left alone. Here’s the really good news: The questions and challenges you face now are among the finest you’ve ever had. You are being afforded prime opportunities to grow in w i s d o m a n d effectiveness.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): How many languages are you fluent it? One? Two? More?

I’m sure you already know that gaining the ability to speak more than one tongue makes you smarter and more empathetic.

It expands your capacity to express yourself vividly and gives you access to many interesting people who think differently from you. I mention this, Libra, because you’re in a phase of your cycle when learning a new language might be easier than usual, as is improving your mastery of a second or third language. If none of that’s feasible for you, I urge you to at least formulate an intention to speak your main language with greater candor and precision — and find other ways to expand your ability to express yourself.

from those deterrents and discouragements in your own past.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Not all, but many horoscope columns address your ego rather than your soul. They provide useful information for your surface self, but little help for your deep self. If you’ve read my oracles for a while, you know that I aspire to be in the latter category. In that light, you won’t be surprised when I say that the most important thing you can do in the coming weeks is to seek closer communion with your soul; to explore your core truths; to focus on delight, fulfillment, and spiritual meaning far more than on status, power, and wealth. As you attend to your playful work, meditate on this counsel from Capricorn author John O’Donohue: “The geography of your destiny is always clearer to the eye of SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Here’s Uru- your soul than to the intentions and needs of guayan writer Eduardo Galeano from “The your surface mind.”

Book of Embraces”: “In the River Plate basin AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Aquarian we call the heart a ‘bobo,’ a fool. And not because it falls in love. We call it a fool because biochemist Gertrude Belle Elion shared the it works so hard.” I bring this to your attention, Nobel Prize in physiology or medicine in 1988.

Advice Goddess BY AMY ALKON Boyfriend disappears after declaring partner his soulmate As fade would have it

she’s always telling me that looks aren’t what matter and I should go for a man who’s stable and reliable. Is she looking out for me? How come she doesn’t follow her own advice? It seems weirdly hypocritical.

— Puzzled Charmingly, the men your sister picks for herself look like they could work in strip clubs, while men she picks for you look like accountants who’ve invested in strip malls.

Welcome to “the Juliet effect,” as named by evolutionary scientists Robert Biegler and Leif Edward Ottesen Kennair. In Shakespeare’s “Romeo and Juliet,” Juliet’s mom — let’s call her Mrs. Capulet — was working her own agenda in giving her daughter advice on whom to marry. Mrs. Capulet pushed her daughter to go for Count Paris, a boringly stable rich guy from a good family. Juliet, of course, only had eyes for Romeo, the off-limits hottie, whose family was basically the feuding Italian Hatfields to the Capulet’s McCoys.

It turns out that Shakespeare was something of an intuitive evolutionary psychologist. Parents do want the best for you — uh, that is, except when what’s best for you diverges with what’s best for them. The same goes for your siblings. These fun intrafamily conflicts are called “parent-offspring competition” and “sibling competition” by evolutionary psychologists.

Biegler and Kennair researched the way these evolved conflicts play out over “transferable” versus “nontransferable” qualities in a woman’s partner. Transferable qualities are those that could directly benefit the children of a woman’s mother or sister — for example, a man’s ability to provide food, shelter and/or “protection against predators or enemies.” (High status, too, would be transferable, because of the power and perks that come with.) Nontransferable qualities, on the other hand, are those — like hottiehood — that suggest a man has good genes, which would directly benefit only his female partner’s own children.

Accordingly, Biegler and Kennair found that moms and sisters wanted hunks for themselves but would steer their daughter or sibling to the stable guy with resources.

Granted, this probably isn’t a conscious Sister knives move on their part — all “gotta make her My sister dates super hot guys, but believe the rich troll is her soulmate.”

I was dating this guy, and it was super intense. He is a big believer in soulmates, and he said he thought I was his. Of course, I was excited, and it all seemed really romantic, and then poof! He was gone. Ghosted me. What makes somebody think simply disappearing is an OK way to break up?

— So Upset “Love is in the air” is not supposed to mean your new boyfriend disappears into it like a fine mist.

Welcome to the dark side of the “We’re soulmates!” thing. It turns out that a person’s beliefs about the underpinnings of a successful relationship can affect how they end things — whether they tell you it’s over or just ghost you (wordlessly vanish from your life). There are “destiny beliefs,” which, in their strongest incarnation, involve believing in fate and soulmates — the notion that people in relationships “are either meant to be together or they’re not,” as social psychologist Gili Freedman and her colleagues put it. “Growth beliefs,” on the other hand, involve the notion that “relationships grow over time” and take work; you don’t just bump into your perfect partner in a train station and go off on the 6:07 to Happilyeverafter.

In line with this view of relationships as a gradual process of working out conflicts, the researchers found that romantic partners with stronger growth beliefs were 38.4% less likely to indicate that ghosting is OK. However, people with destiny beliefs, like your “Fate or bust!” ex, were 63.4% more likely to find it acceptable to take the disappearo way out.

But interestingly, Freedman and her colleagues noted that “high scores on destiny do not equal low scores on growth,” which means somebody can believe both in soulmates and in working to improve relationships. (Also, even soulmatehood devotees can understand that another person is a person, with feelings.) In other words, don’t assume that anybody who believes in soulmates will disappear without explanation — going from an exuberant “Babe, you complete me!” to a silent “Boy, am I glad I didn’t give you my key!”
