Go hard or go home. No, it’s not an ad for Viagra, but things are looking up because it is a Rainhard Imperial stout, Hearts Collide. A love song from Green Day? What do you think I am, some kind of American idiot? * Not hard hearted, hearts collide is the ultimate...
Here we have an interesting pale ale to enjoy, and not a moment too soon. It’s certainly not spur of the moment, but it may be momentous, perhaps even a defining moment. But since it is Old Flame and it is Cranky Old Men Drinking Beer most likely it will be a senior...
In the land of McDavid, Edmonton that is, although after the 4 Nations win Canada is probably the land of McDavid. At least until the next Oilers Leafs game. I’ve always been a buy local kinda guy, especially when it comes to beer. Shout out to O’Byrnes Irish Pub for...
Do you know what the secret is to keeping a slim trim figure at an advanced age? Me either, I was hoping you’d know.* What I do know is that a bottle of beer is about 200 calories and a bottle of wine is about 650 calories. Just saying. This brew is an alliteration...

I’m downtown and out on the town in little apple. At a fancy pants restaurant and the menu has some of the same old same old, with me always looking for a new brew to review. Lo and behold, an Astoria mahogany lager. What’s new? That’s new, and not the Waldorf Astoria...
A trip back to Dominion City for their Paper Salesman pale. Is this a tribute to Dunder Mifflin and the self-proclaimed greatest boss in the world perhaps? A toast to everybody’s favourite office romance, Pam and Jim. Or a chance to share another bizarre and yet...
Cross Country Sniper seemed like a good brew to go with a Canada USA hockey game. However the sniping I was expecting was of the puck shooting variety, not the fight baiting kind. The gloves dropped before the puck did and we all waited for a hockey game to break out....
