28 Songs Brewhouse + Kitchen coming to Main and Market
Boerne’s brewing and restaurant scene keeps growing, and the latest addition coming in spring 2023 is keeping the ball rolling on both fronts. The planned 28 Songs Brewhouse + Kitchen will be the first brewery on North Main Street and owners vow to have something for everyone’s tastes. The plan is to have 28 taps with a mix of housemade beers and guest taps, but the goal is to eventually have a wide variety of 28 of their own beers on, said Don Kretz, a managing partner in the enterprise and a homebrewer for 25 years. 09/25/2022 12:00 AM

Cardiovascular disease looks different in women vs. men
Cardiovascular disease looks different in women vs. men
Dear Doctors: I’m a 38-year-old woman in good health. I kept getting a tight chest while running, so my doctor did some tests. He said my heart looked fine. But when I went for a second opinion, I was diagnosed with microvascular disease. I’ve never even heard of that before. What is it? Dear Reader: You’ve introduced a topic of great importance to women of all ages: the fact that cardiovascular disease often takes a different form -- and comes with different symptoms -- in women than in men. 09/21/2022 12:00 AM
Another white wine that’s pleasing to the palate
Another white wine that’s pleasing to the palate
Greetings readers! Our featured wine today is another white wine: Chateau Goudichaud Blanc. Don’t despair, some beautiful red wines are in the pipeline for upcoming reviews. This one, an artfully crafted blend made up of 85 percent Sauvignon Blanc, 10 percent Muscadelle and 5 percent Sémillon, is a classic example of what the Bordeaux region – better known for its world famous red wines – can also produce in whites. Chateau Goudichaud is located on the banks of the Dordogne River, very close to the famous appellations of Saint Emilion, Pomerol and Fronsac. Belonging to the Glotin Family, the wine estate is part of the best properties in the appellation both for the quality of its wines as well as for its production capacity. 09/18/2022 12:00 AM
