A firm farm fresh peach off the vine, so fine! I’ve had canned peaches that were so heavenly you’d think the Saints preserved them. And when it comes to a pastry competition, a peach cobbler is a shoe in. Peaches are the stone fruit king, I’d pit them against any...
To say 1986 didn’t start off on the right foot is a bit of an understatement of both cosmic and nuclear proportions. With the Space Shuttle Challenger explosion and the Chernobyl meltdown, there wasn’t much to cheer about earlier in the year. But if you were living in...
I thought a fat bike was one of those stationary bikes that you put in your downstairs “gym” by the beer fridge and only used once (the bike not the beer fridge) before putting it up for sale on Kijiji two years later for ½ the price you paid for it. But apparently...
It was Ron Burgundy, anchorman of fame and infamy, and a classic classless ass who ironically uttered those words every night “You stay classy San Diego”. Is Bellwoods doing a tip of the tankard to Will Ferrell’s alter ego? * Or are they simply implying that by...
Even beer reviewers get writer’s block. I took a look at this pedestrian pilsner and couldn’t think of anything to write about. The big blue jay on the can could be a segue into the start of the baseball season. Go Jays go, so far so good. Perhaps I should have...
It was another big beaked bird who was known to intone “follow your nose, it always knows”. Toucan Sam had the unique ability to smell Froot Loops from great distances.* However, we all know you can’t believe everything you see on TV, or in the papers, or on social...
Maybe you’re a little green around the gills after a few too many St. Patty’s Day Sláintes. Time for a little hair of the dog that bit you. That’s right, it’s beer me time again, but this dog is no light lager Lassie, what we have here is a 10% leave us reeling...
The Breakwall boys and girls tell us they are using, and I quote "different hops, malts and yeasts that interest us or happen to wash up on shore." I don't know about you, but I'm not too keen on Lake Erie flotsam and jetsam as ingredients in my beer.* Hopefully they...
What the hell kinda name is “janky”? I thought janky meant crappy, sketchy, and in general not very good. * I could see me possibly calling a beer that, by why would anyone name their beer that, especially a “Fine Beer” brewer like Matron? Sounds like they are long...
Emerald Stout! A stout from the Emerald Isle? Nope, a stout from the grocery store aisle. Right beside the Buble (not Bublé) and the Canada Dry, it’s another entrant into our COMDB zero percent experiment. Against the good advice of Dr. Alex Speers * we are pouring...
