It sure is a long trek to Newfoundland but well worth it, as we can see from the COMDB brew tour of the rock. But the tour doesn’t have to end when we leave the island. As long as we have some NL brews in the ol’ beer fridge we can armchair tour the rock, no time...
The old man’s favourite TV show was Gunsmoke, starring James Arness as Matt Dillon. But if he wanted a change of pace from a western he would watch Bonanza.* The trials and tribulations of the trice widowed Ben Cartwright and his three sons (each from a different...
On the Vegas strip and it’s as hot as a walk on the sun. Time to blow off some froth and chill with a cool craft. Beer Park sounded like a sun stroke sanctuary,* a place that might have what I’m looking for. After climbing up a set of stairs with a handrail too hot...
Black Heart stout was released last year with an advertising campaign blatantly challenging hardcore Guinness drinkers to compare the two stouts “head to head” so to speak. BrewDog and their cofounder James Watt have never shied away from a fight or the spotlight, but...
This review is going to be more confused than usual so listen up. I’m in Vegas and always looking local, so I see a pilsner on the menu, Golden Nites from Henderson Nevada based Lovelady, and it gets me reminiscing romantic so I order one. What comes to me is a crazy...
180 taps! And we aren’t talking about a Fred Astaire Gene Kelly movie.* We’re talking about Vegas, and the Yard House and enough craft beers to put a shiver down my liver. “The largest selection of craft beers on tap in the world!” It’s going to be a long night. But...
If you are thinking of the attractive member of the Black Eyed Peas, or the Duchess of York, or the Montreal Canadiens enforcer in the 60’s, then you are thinking of Fergie.* If you are thinking of the Rocky mountains, skiing and the birth place of Alex Lifeson,** now...
New Westminster is 18kms from downtown Vancouver, or 1 hour and 15 minutes by cab at 4PM. And I thought Toronto traffic was bad (it is). What’s so special about New Westminster? It was the one-time capital of British Columbia, and the oldest Western Canadian city, so...
From the rocky shores of the East coast to the verdant green of the West, I find myself on the cosmo coast of Vancouver. Talk about green, some of these buildings even have grass on the roof, good thing it’s legal to sell it now. A sun shiny stroll down the promenade...
The COM did a pit stop at Daft and before we filed our flight plan RA sampled Cool Cool Cool. I asked him what he thought and he said “tastes like beer” which coming from RA is a great compliment. So I was eager to sample this flamingo adorned dry hopped Pils. Did you...
