Hockey Night in Canada, and a Highlander Porter to help me cheer on my Leafs. It all starts with the pour and what can I say. It seemed to pour thick, perhaps substantial is a better descriptor. Nice tan head over black. Even DaVinci couldn't have painted as pretty a...
I bought this can unaware of where the name Puppers came from. I figured a golden retriever and a golden lager? I haven’t seen the show Letterkenny but apparently Puppers beer is the brew of choice of the characters on the show. An entirely fictitious brand for the...
With all Ontario ingredients harvested from Guelph, Alymer, Bellville and South Simcoe, Muskoka Brewery has dedicated this special edition to all the hardworking farmers. Just like those farmers and our old buddy Farmer Steve too, this beer is outstanding in its...
I thought this one was going to have a big aroma, not so. I thought this one was going to have a big taste, not so. What this one does have is a beautiful smooth coffee chocolate taste that could be enjoyed year round. Slightly bitter undertones, maybe not a year...
According to LoB, “in the heart of the forest the Spark House* stands alone”. I assume they are making reference to the unique nature of this red. It poured deep dark red, not at all hazy or bubbly. A ribbon of a white head. An aroma that seemed to be malt forward...
What could be more golden than… gold? The Sultana Gold Mine was a going concern in the Lake of the Woods area at the turn of the century (1900’s that is). John Caldwell bought the claim in 1889 and made a fortune over the next ten years but sold it in December 1899....
From the quaint hamlet of Elora and the famous Elora Gorge comes a feisty brew, Lady Friend IPA. Not sure what the name has to do with the beer or what a woman giving a bear a stiff upper cut has to do with anything let alone the price of tea in China, but that is...
Guess what’s at the corner of Highway 35 and Highway 118. If you were to say a traffic light you would be correct but the answer I was looking for was Boshkung* Brewery, nestled in the hills of Minden. The micro-brewer says they are focused on lakeside brews and...
Perhaps a red to match the festive season? However this poured very dark, more like a dark amber than a red. But when I held it up to the light it came through as a deep red. Is this a hop-tical illusion* of some type? A frothy head, very bubbly but the beer was not...
Dark dark pour with a nice tan and white head. They advertise robust coffee with chocolate notes but my first sniff was the other way around. A definite roasted chocolate aroma but I didn’t notice the coffee. Regardless of the order, the mix works well. First swig...
