Calgary, home of big rigs and big hats and big rodeos and of course Big Rock Brewery and their Plzen Pilsner. Many years ago I tried a Big Rock Honey Brown Amber which may have been the start of my love affair with Amber. You always remember your first. So how does...
On this special Canada Day review we are hoisting Market's lite beer, Let It Fly, up the proverbial flag pole to see who salutes it. In this case Let It Fly is of course referring to our flag, the beloved maple leaf*. You didn't think I would be reviewing a Canadian...
Smith Falls* Ontario. South of Highway 7. The third degree is what I get from the Morality Department (the missus) after a weekend at JT’s cottage, but I am guessing the brewery name Four Degrees is about the four owners all graduating from university and using their...

The Stanley Cup playoffs, first game. Mid June. Maybe hockey should be a sport at the summer Olympics now? “Hockey Night in Canada”. Or perhaps a more accurate name would be “Hockey Early Evening MST (So As to Attract the Largest TV Audience Who Reside is Eastern Time...
I prefer an IPA but when one isn't available this little pale ale is just for me. It has a golden amber clear colour. Very flavourful dry taste that tickles the palette. Love the creamy head.
