Lake on the Mountain makes some very good beers. But they don’t seem to be too widely distributed as I never see them in beer or liquor stores in Ontario. If you get to Prince Edward County though, it is well worth it to make a stop here. I tried their Cream Ale this...
I am not a fan of using the name Champagne to refer to beer. If I wanted Champagne, I’m not looking at a can from Nine Locks Brewing for Christ's sake. Maybe they named it after looking at the beer in the glass – it does have a colour that resembles Champagne. But...
This IPA from a British brewery might surprise you at first taste. It has a rich red colour and a bite on the first taste that will make you think it's an Ale, not an IPA. The citrus flavour that has become pretty common in North American IPAs is missing and the...
Ok, have mentioned this once or twice before, but these Craft Beer makers are a generally forthright and honest bunch. If they have something different about their beer … they usually tell you about it right on the can. In this case the sub-heading is “Flavoured...
This is a seasonal offering from Revelstoke, B.C. Revelstoke is home to most vertical ski terrain in North America, which explains the skier on the label. To get an idea of what the skiing is like there, check out some of the names of the runs. Kill the Banker,...
Hazy Days kind of sums up most of 2021 with the pandemic making days run together and feeling the same for most of us. Cowbell Brewing is located in Blyth, Ontario which I had to check on Maps to see where the hell it was. A village of approximately 1000 Wikipedia...
This beer disappointed me. Although I only drank it after I had already consumed a really good IPA that had a lot of flavour, so I feel like this has likely contributed to my impression. My mouth was already stoked with full flavours and then this pilsner brought me...
It’s all there on the label. This beer has a lot of flavour, so much that you can get confused about the taste. At first you taste some fruitiness, then the hops kick in and finally there is some bitterness at the finish. For a session IPA it has an amazingly full,...
So my old buddy JT (all my friends are old these days) gives me a beer I haven’t tried before. Name of the beer is “Farmer in the Sky”*. What the hell kind of name is that for a beer? A pilsner dry hopped with Citra. Beer is beer so I have no problem quaffing one...
The colder the better I say. Chilled a glass. Chips and dip with it (my recommended food group with a Pilsner, or any beer for that matter). Ok beer. Standard fare. Ok but not A-OK if you know what I mean. Nothing much to write home about, or to write anything about...
