Our region is home to some of the best craft breweries in world, and we’re telling their stories to our craft beer fanatics here on our blog.
Up next: Sloop Brewing Company!
Named after the boats that once moved people up and down the Hudson, Sloop Brewing Company came into fruition in 2011. Founded by Adam Watson and Justin Taylor in pursuit of new tastes and adventures, the duo got their start by selling beer at farmers markets across New York’s Hudson Valley. In 2014, they opened their first production facility in a Dutch post & beam barn in Elizaville, NY. Recently, Sloop followed up by opening a brand new 25,000 square foot facility in East Fishkill’s former IBM plant.
Sloop’s star player is their juicy, hazy, flagship Juice Bomb IPA. In this explosive brew, late hopping and low bitterness combine to bring about citrusy, juicy notes of American hops. An exciting blast of tropical leads the way, and a resin-y, more balanced flavor calms the drink down at the end. Juice Bomb is a must try for real hop lovers!

Sunday is the perfect time to take a break, slow down your busy schedule, and enjoy some well-deserved relaxation. Because of these classic characteristics, it seems fitting that International Sloth Day falls on a Sunday this year. Annually, October 20th is a day of appreciation for these sluggish tree dwellers and this year we are proud to be celebrating with the folks at Double H Ranch!
Sloths are known for hanging out in the trees of tropical rain forests. Their extremely low metabolic rate is the reason behind their remarkably slow lifestyle. In fact, they only move approximately 41 yards in a single day, as they spend 15-20 of their 24 hours sleeping. Despite their drowsy nature, sloths are actually skilled swimmers, using their long arms to successfully wade through the water. Don’t believe us? Check out the video below for proof.
On top of all this, sloths can be cute and are a great choice when deciding which stuffed animal toy to buy. We teamed up with our friends at Double H Ranch to offer these stuffed animal sloths for a great cause! Double H runs camps for children with life-threatening illnesses, working to make lasting memories and enrich lives. With their help, you can stop by your local Price Chopper/Market 32 and purchase a stuffed animal sloth for $10. $3 of each purchase will be donated to benefit the kids at Double H!
Enjoy International Sloth Day and be sure to love a sloth in support of Double H Ranch!
And here’s that swimming sloth we promised, courtesy of BBC America…

A Hole Lotta History: Beginnings of the Bagel
Bagels have become a staple breakfast food in the American diet. They’re perfect for an on-the-go start to your busy day. Despite its simplistic nature, the bagel has a larger role in history than you may expect.
We’ve been in the bagel business since 1932, but these guys trace back far before that. First brought to the United States by Jewish immigrants from Poland in the 19th century, bagels were popularized here in the Northeast, in New York City’s Lower East Side. Back then they were displayed on poles and strings, which is how the hole in the middle of the bagel originated.
“Beigel” is the Yiddish word for bagel, and it’s a popular theory that the bagel is a descendant of the German pretzel; another yeasted dough bread that is boiled then baked. The process of boiling then baking, keeps the bagels fresh longer, which for economically challenged folks was a necessity.
As Jewish people began to immigrate to North America from Europe, many settled in Toronto and Montreal, creating bagels in Canada that were slightly different from the New York style. Meanwhile, in New York, there were so many bagel makers that Local 33, a bagel-makers trade union, was formed in 1915.
Over time, bagels became more jazzed up. For this, we can credit the invention of cream cheese in the 1930s, followed by a Family Circle Magazine article which suggested that bagels with cream cheese and lox would serve as a good cocktail party appetizer.
Today at Price Chopper & Market 32, our bagels are one of the staples of our business. We’re excited to introduce our NEW bigger and better bagels! Freshly baked in-store, they’re crispy on the outside and pleasingly soft and chewy on the inside, and they’re on sale this week! View our ad to learn more.

An Apple A Day Keeps The Athlete Okay!
Written by our home.grown. friends at the New York Apple Association
You know apples are healthy and nutritious. You may not know that they can also help athletes go further by improving endurance.
A study at the Osaka City University Graduate School of Medicine in Japan took 18 healthy volunteers who either received Applephenon [a polyphenol extract from unripe apples], or a placebo of vitamin C. All the subjects were then took part in two fatigue-inducing workload trials on a bicycle ergometer for two hours. 30 minutes after the start of the tests – and 30 minutes before the conclusion – the participants also performed non-workload trials at maximum velocity for 10 seconds.
The tests found that maximum velocity was higher in the group that received Applephenon prior to the test than for those who received the placebo. This led to the conclusion that Applephenon replicates antioxidant activity, reducing physical fatigue.
And that’s just the beginning of the advantages. Watch NYAA Consulting Dietitian Linda Quinn and learn more about the Nutritional Benefits of Apples for Athletes in just 90 seconds!
