Genesee Brew House brings back Mango Peach Kolsch with festivity
ROCHESTER, N.Y. (WROC) — Calling all Genny fans! Genesee Brew House unveiled 'Mango Peach Beach' to mark the return of Mango Peach Kolsch. The summer will include tropical themed food specials, live music, photo opportunities, and great beer. Mango Peach Beach will transport customers to a tropical paradise through Labor Day. Officials said last year's Tropical Oasis attracted more than 2,500 visitors. 'I figured after the spring that we've had here in Rochester, we all need a beach, right?,' Genesee Brew House Manager Carl Falk said. 'And what better way to celebrate a beach with a great beer, Mango Peach Kolsch is out again this year. It's been fantastic.' For more information on events at Genesee Brew House, click here.

For her sporty, reliable Genesis, it's a wrap. This tow truck driver chose teal and did some work on the car
On the job, Rebecca Moodie's at the wheel of a tow truck in the Oakville area. In her off hours, the young Hamilton woman's favourite pastime is taking her 2016 Genesis Coupe 3.8 R-Spec to car shows or on drives with her dog, Rocky. Moodie's car passion started early. 'When I was a kid, I played with Hot Wheels all the time. In high school, I took auto class as I wanted to build a car of my own. I saw a lot of Genesis cars when I was in high school, and decided I wanted one of those. It was a dream car for me, a sports car, but something that was reliable that I would enjoy. The first time I test drove one, I had a smile on my face the entire time. My mom knew what I was looking for, and we looked together, and I found a 2016 Genesis with 117,000 km at a dealership three years ago. I named her 'Jolene,' because I saw another one called that on TikTok. Mine was originally white, but I've had it wrapped in teal. A few months before I had it wrapped, I got a cup at Starbucks that was teal, and I thought it was a cool colour. People always love the car's colour; it's so unique and I'm known because of the Genny's colour. Wraps are like giant stickers, and if I ever want to change the colour, I can. I've had a carbon fibre trunk put on the car, too. I installed my own coilovers (a type of suspension) to lower it, and I do my own oil changes. I have full leather seats and a leather centre console. I restitched the steering wheel myself, and it's black with blue stitching. I have a sun roof and heated seats. The car has a V6 3.8-litre engine, rear wheel drive and automatic transmission. The handling is really nice, especially with the upgraded suspension. I belong to a local car club called Uncommon Alliance, and car shows are one of my favourite things. At one, I was third in my class out of all the Hyundais there. I enjoy going to the shows and hanging out with my friends, and there are five or six of us who go, including another girl and my boyfriend. At the shows, I like to see what everyone has built, and it's so different from one car to the next. One of the shows I plan to do this year is Street Candy at the Hamilton Convention Centre (June 21). It's a big mix of everything, with whole sections for trucks and classic cars. I used to drive the Genny year-round as my daily driver, but now that I drive the tow truck (for 3D Towing), I put Jolene away for the winter. I used to have an office job, but I have friends who are tow trucks drivers and it seemed like it was a job I'd enjoy, so I did the training. My best friend works there, too. I love driving and seeing so many different things on my job. Sometimes you really have to put your mind to it, like if you have to do a recovery or rollover. The only Genesis I've ever towed belonged to my boyfriend, after it was in an accident. Now he's got a Hyundai Veloster. I know how to drive a lot of vehicles. My dad is a truck driver and I learned to drive in his pick-up. Going from something small like the Genny to driving something so large like the tow truck wasn't a big problem. I want to add another vehicle to my collection and I know what it will be. My dad has a 2006 Chevy Silverado and has had it since I was in kindergarten. That will be my truck. I want to lift it and put wide wheels on it. You can follow Rebecca Moodie's adventures with her Genesis car on Instagram at
