Back to Basics Out of the Bottle

Back to Basics Out of the Bottle

Nice patio dinner with the missus, then out on the lake and wetted the net, yep caught me a fat bass-terd or two, then a moonlight cruise. Only one thing left on my to do list to do today, that’s right, quaff me a cold one on the boathouse. But after all the fancy...

Bones and Cones

Kipling once said “East is East and West is West and never the twain shall meet”. * What Rudyard (how’s that for a first name, thanks Mom, thanks Dad) didn’t count on was a collaboration between cottage country Sawdust City and the ever macabre malters at Third Moon....

High on The Green Hit

High on The Green Hit

The Green Hit? That would be “Let’s Stay Together”, Al Green’s 1972 first and only #1 song. Or maybe it’s a hole at a COM 18-hole golf tourney, the one green hit in regulation? Upon closer inspection it appears that our church-based brewer are practicing Rastafarians,...

What’s the Matter?

What’s the Matter?

A Crownsmen show feature brew from Victoria, BC, this beer is in many ways much like the show. A perplexing mystery wrapped in an unfathomable enigma. Just as we never know where the show will go, or why anyone even watches it, or if anything on the show makes any...

Otto Works

Pedantic Editor: I wonder if otto-matopoeia refers to words that sound the same as their meaning in German? Sounds like it’s time to call in the COMDB Translation Department. COMDB Translation Department: We don’t hear from you often. Don’t get us wrong, we’re not...

Lucky Lace, Hoppy Anniversary Silversmith *

Inspired by Farmer Steve’s recent Nova Scotia pilgrimage, I decided to check out my local church. A V-twin cruise through wine country and next thing you know I’m pulling into the Silversmith parking lot. Helmet in hand I go in and ask the friendly barkeep what’s new....

Nastro A-Zero

Nastro A-Zero

Out for a blissful bite with my wife for life. I pondered what type of light lunch lager like libation would assuage the angst of the Department of Morality? Perhaps I’ll pick a Peroni patio pint of the zero persuasion, another entrant into our COMDB 0 percent...

Tastes Like Beer? Czech

Tastes Like Beer? Czech

In the immortal (immoral?) words of JT, “I’m looking for a beer that tastes like beer”.  After quaffing a peachy apricot wheat and a bombastic blonde blowout, JT’s fearless philosophizing rings true for me. Enter Grand River and their Czech Pilsner. According to GR,...
