After 149 ales, 37 ambers (love me an Amber), 29 draft, 218 IPAs, 197 lagers, 36 lite beers, 66 pale ales, 53 pilsners, 16 porters, 61 stouts, 15 wheat beers and 17 other assorted sours and saisons, sometimes you just want a beer. But not just any beer. How about a...
While watching Dallas getting their lunch, breakfast and dinner handed to them by the 49ers last night, I needed some spirits to lift my spirits. Sunday night football spirit raising sounded like a job for the Church. It just so happens that my neighbourhood church is...
Just passing through for another downtown K-Town brew review. Look out, there’s Something is in the Water! Could it be a frighteningly real mechanical shark, a modern day Moby Dick? Or Jaqueline Bisset in her scuba gear? Or Hasselhoff and Anderson saving another...
Telling the tail of a cream ale. A congregation of cranky old craft connoisseurs met at Ontario’s oldest brew pub,* the Kingston Brewing Co. A meeting of the minds with Farmer Steve and RA in attendance. We focused on the house offerings, although there were no “on...

A coast-to-coast toast to the host with the most. Happy Drink Beer Day Canada! I did notice that it is not drink a beer day. Are they are suggesting that a two for one would be more fun than one and done? Or am I just overthinking my drinking? On this auspicious...
A Sawdust City special in the magical Muskoka moonlight. Fat Dog is not a tribute to a portly pup or a hefty hound but is in reference to the Fat Dog 120, a 124 mile long ultra marathon in South Western BC. This brew is to support Sawdust’s buddy David who ran the...
First of all, kudos on the Canadian spelling of “colour”, neighbour to the South spell check be damned I say. And the name Superflux? How about a super flux capacitor to take our Delorean back to the future, or sequel us into the past for that matter. Or maybe sharks...
Lots to unravel here. First of all a translation of Brava is in order. The COMDB translation department asked me if I wanted it in French, Spanish, Italian or Hawaiian. Out of curiosity and with no foreseeable deadline on this review I said all of the above. They tell...
