After a couple of armchair visits to Europe which included a super suds Bitburger, I find myself back in Germany, as we continue our 0 percent experiment. Paulaner, a world famous Munich brewer, has taken on the non-alcoholic brewing challenge with their Weissbier 0.0...
This review will be short but not sweet. Last night I wished this concrete blonde was still in Hollywood instead of in my glass. * Believe me, I have nothing against non-alcoholic beverages…. that taste like they are supposed to. There is a time and a place for them....
Juicy Fruit, sounds delicious. Just like the gum only with alcohol. Chew on that! And from the great team at Brock Street no less, the self-proclaimed most refreshing street in Canada. Sounds like a can’t miss winner. Unfortunately no chicken dinner tonight. My...
This Trappist* Orval ale ordeal started out as a foam fest and only got worse. As foamy as it gets and then some. A head so thick it could hold up a bank, and it took more time to settle than a Trump law suit (pick one, any one). Luckily, I was in no hurry, although...
In January of 2023, I found myself in Belize, Central America. Now for all of you geographically-challenged types out there, Belize is not an island, nor does it have a Pacific Coast. It is a very small country directly south of the Mexican Yucatan, on the Caribbean...

This beer has been in my fridge about twice as long as most beers last in there. I can't say that the pink can with watermelon seeds sprinkled on it is a particularly attractive look for a beer. But this is Mill St. Brewery who has been in this business for a long...
I see these sour beers on the shelf and think to myself, what a terrible idea, not for me, no thank you. Then what happens? One comes in my beer of the month club selection. I guess they didn’t get the memo. What memo is that, you ask? The memo that reads “NO SOUR...
A beer that tastes like scotch. Good lord, what a terrible combination that is. If you want scotch, drink a nice scotch. Don’t search for the taste of scotch in a beer. No wonder this is “original”, no one else would ever contemplate or try to copy such a foul...
Where to begin? When I saw the name Goodbye Gravity I was immediately intrigued. But it is not a reference to the impact this beer will have on you, but rather a tribute to Canadian astronaut Chris Hadfield who hails from Sarnia, where the brewery is based. Hadfield...
