At the lake, address 007, license to chill. Me and Blue Rodeo lost together.* Enjoying a chill swill, the Helles you say, and I confirm. 2/3 of the way through my brew, I receive an emergency directive from the Department of Morality. It appears our buffalo breathed...
After some down and dirty double trouble at 8.2% it was time to lighten things up with a 3.8% Local Light from Blackburn. A wise man once said “It is better to pour a light than to curse the darkness”, a quote I found quite illuminating. * The last time I cursed the...
My maternal ancestors, United Empire Loyalists all, have names like Millie, Flora, Mable, Zelda and other names you just don’t see much of today. But I have never run into a Philomena,* the MacKinnon Brothers granny who is immortalized in this pilsner. Speaking of...

Ritchie Blackmore saw it on the water, the Platters got some in their eyes, Matt Dillon's was from a gun, and Fonger is glad it's legal now.* Yep, we're talkin' smoke. A smoky campfire pilsner from Muskoka to be exact. Swillin' and grillin' Lord willin'. Not that it...
Is it an incomplete education or an uncomplete education? Based on my attendance record there's a good chance I missed that class. For completeness you can look for a small library and read every book in it, or you can do like I did and sign up for Niagara...
The Decew Falls Brewing Co Historic Society is once again taking us on a visit to a local heritage site. We are visiting the mill that resides on and is powered by Decew Falls (the falls, not the brewery). Morningstar Mill is named after Wilson Morningstar, who...
