Salt City Derby Girls Season Opener: Wrist Guards vs Razor...
When most people think of derby, many think of the old school ‘70s era of roller derby, where there was no true scoring system, they just skated round and round the track, and pulled off some groovy vintage skating tricks. Compared to derby today, especially banked track roller derby, it’s a night and day difference. … read more
Tastemakers @ Gallivan Avenue 05.29-30
Every year, Salt Lake Magazine kicks off the summer with Tastemakers, a two-night event dedicated to showcasing some of Utah’s finest eateries. With over twenty local restaurants participating, it’s tough to fit so much eating into two nights—but I managed to make it work. … read more
Jeff Michael Vice – February 2, 1965 – May 27,...
On May 27, Salt Lake City lost one of its favorite sons. Jeff Vice was somebody that everyone in town knew—he couldn’t walk into any bar or coffee shop without seeing a friend or being recognized by a fan with whom he would instantly interact, as if they were already friends. He gave everyone his attention and was always ready to talk movies, music and comics expertly and passionately. … read more

Colt Bowden is always on the lookout for interesting spots. I met up with this former Utah local last month, and he took me down a drainage ditch near his house to this crazy transition. I think it’s a requisite that his spots are hard to skate. … read more
#BeerGeekSocialMedia
Social media has become a huge part of most of our lives. Being a “Beer Gnerd,” I’ve enjoyed getting the opportunity to simply connect and interact with people of like mind through quite a few beer apps out there, designed specifically for the craft beer enthusiast. Many do the same thing—allow the users to share their thoughts on what they’re drinking and where. I’ve highlighted a few beer geek apps to help you stay more easily connected while looking for and enjoying your favorite glass of suds. … read more

Princess Kennedy: Beers, Boys and Birthdays
Beer is a subject near and dear to the hearts of Salt Lake. I hated beer not too long ago—in fact, it was safe to say that I probably had my first when I moved here. I was a cocktail gal, a three-martini luncher—a bloody mary, if you will. Beer terrified me: It was a loaf of bread in a glass, and tasted like piss. … read more
Mike Brown’s Ride-a-Long: Viva la Magna!
Oh, the beloved Beer Issue—close to my heart and even closer to my liver. As usual, I get to use the Beer Issue as a chance to twist some tops and bend some elbows on someone else’s dime while pretending to write a serious article, and it’s the one time of year where the SLUG editors can’t give me any shit for writing my column drunk. It’s possible to slur in an article—if you’ve ever read any of my zines, then you already know that. … read more
