Calabogie is inviting us to join them for some winter solstice suds, but that boat left the dock about 3 months ago.* Better late than never is what most people who are late say which is little to no solace for a missed solstice. Better never late is what the people...
I wanted to try this Sapporo Dark Lager imported from Japan but I only buy singles and this one comes in 4 packs. I was commenting (complaining) to the lady behind the counter at The Beer Store about it and she said she wanted to try it too. So I bought a 4 pack and...
Although I rarely have what anyone would call a sunny disposition, this bright yellow Sunsplit in my beer fridge caught my eye. It seemed to be a much more accurate indicator of an early spring than any large hibernating rodent ever was. So here comes the sun, but...
