10E2503: Pallet magazine

Pallet magazine; "...print quarterly for people with curious minds and adventurous palates. Or put more simply, those who like to think and drink."

 Issue two cover, painted by Dave Eggers

I thought this was just a really good magazine about beer. Turns out its a really good magazine. In the first two issues articles have appeared on;

• Munich’s oldest cooperage
• a history of Zamrock
• micro-finance in India
• the intersecting lives of Johnny Cash and Merle Haggard
• classic Japanese architecture
• short fiction inspired by the tattoos of Henry Rollins
• interview w/ muso Reggie Watts
• conversations with career barkeeps from Tokyo to Durban
• what it takes to make booze in prison
• photo essay - packing for an apocalypse
• inside the Japanese mafia
• cradle-to-cradle industrial symbiosis.
• six months on the road with young band All Them Witches
• profile on writer-turned-painter Dave Eggers
• and short fiction that revives a tired and mistreated genre: the western

I only just got the double meaning - pallet like to deliver beer, but also palate as in your personal taste. Well played.
