Caramel tastes great, so why would someone decide to salt caramel? Doesn’t make sense. But the combination is pretty tasty I must admit. They say the secret is to get just the right mix, otherwise it just isn’t very good. I would say that is no secret, seems obvious...
Charles MacLean is Master of the brews at MacLean’s, the Brewmaster of Brewmaster. I was a bit leery before sampling this beer because I am not a huge fan of English browns and MacLean’s touts this brew as an English style brown ale. So a tasting was in order to see...
These days that old 5 o’clock shadow is indeed pale, a little salt and pepper.* This beer name reminded me of my old buddy and fellow reviewer RA who can often be heard to say “It’s 4 o’clock somewhere.” Although this beer claims to be a pale ale it reminded me more...
Farmer Steve tells us that during the last snowstorm his tractor was up to the job, moving snow like a pro. Just like Farmer Steve’s Kubota, Beau’s has their tractor cranked up and working full time and full throttle on this IPA. This IPA has a very fresh citrusy...

I am leery of fruit flavoured brews. But I hear that blueberries are good for you, and of course Fats Domino found his thrill up on blueberry hill, so perhaps this ale will be an exception, or even exceptional. MacLean’s had pleasantly surprised me with a very tasty...
Artisanal salts? Blackcurrants? Electrolytes? As I watched the Super Bowl and poured this unique sounding beer I wondered to myself whether I was going to be sampling beer or Gatorade? They describe their beer as highly electrolytic? Does that mean it removes hair?...
Greene King is a British based brewer and more. As the country’s leading pub retailer and brewer they run over 2,700 pubs, restaurants and hotels across England, Wales and Scotland. This premium ale showed up on the local LCBO shelf so I thought I would give it a...
Is it a Lager or is it a Pilsner? On the can it claims to be both a Scottish (not Scotch) Lager and a Noble Pilsner. And it's Bellpark Brewery so who is this Tennent who has their name on the can? Wellpark has been brewing beer out of Glasgow since 1556 so what does...
