Vinylhaven 

A small Coastal-Maine town where phonograph records are made.
After successfully stocking up on crisp new yellow hexagonal No. 2's in Pencilvania, I headed on up the coast to Vinylhaven to pick up some oldies on LP. Town Manager Susan Lessard was certainly very pleasant and welcoming when I eagerly breezed into her office at the town hall, but then when I asked for directions to the nearest records-stamping plant, she just gave me a puzzled look like she didn't even have a clue what I was talking about ("Well, sorry to disappoint you, Sir, but all of our new-product vendors switched to CDs years ago"), then smilingly suggested that I check out their local thrift shops for a broad selection of nice pre-owned albums.

Utility beer 

Utility beer is the beer you keep around for the day-to-day moments when beer is a necessity to assist in pedestrian activities (golf, plumbing, yardwork, babysitting, staff meetings, Zoom calls). For the beer snob it is the beer you save for neighbors when they drop in at 3 p.m. on a Tuesday. It is differentiated from the actual high-end beer you save for special events, holidays, and special tastings.
Person 1: Dave, did you bring along those hazy craft IPA's so we could drink while cleaning Lyle's pool?
Person 2: Nope. I just have a bunch of utility beer that Steve dumped on me. Good enough for this. It is only 10:30 a.m.
