According to Oast, unlike Rome, you can build a barn in a day. Then you celebrate with a big ol’ shin dig. And all those friends at the barn raising who helped you with the timber and clapboard and trusses, well you toast ‘em with an Oast. Sounds like a lot of fun,...
Well, I thought I would never try another Harrowsmith’s again after a harrowing experience with one sometime back. But I see this one is brewed by Spearhead. A dark orange haze pour with a nice head to it. Smells citrusy, you can tell this one has zing. A biting...
When you think of English bitter you may picture Harry and Meghan*, but an English Bitter is in fact an English Pale Ale and most aren’t that bitter at all. English bitters may have been the original session ales, easy drinking and light. Maybe you are looking for...
We have reviewed a Sinister Minister but I am not much of an expert on Saints although we have met a few of them during our reviews. There was good old Saint Ambroise, and then St. Augustine and St. Arnulf, who are patron Saints of Beer and Brewers. And St. Patrick of...

To quote a famous Doctor regarding Christmas “And then! Oh, the noise! Oh, the Noise! Noise! Noise! Noise!” Dr. Suess was probably a cranky old man at heart since he said he thought of the Grinch character while looking in the mirror and dismaying about the...
The dead of night* sounds like just about when Santa delivers my beer of the month club Christmas gift. Maybe that’s why Bud, the Elf on the beer shelf, recommended this brew for Christmas Eve. For a cranky old man there is nothing quite as Christmassy as watching the...
Wicked good* or wicked evil? If you were described on Santa’s list as wicked you would be expecting the old “coal” shoulder from St. Nick. But these days you can’t be too sure what even the most obvious adjectives really mean. Sawdust City tells us that this beer is...
We have been “at sea”* often in these reviews and once again we find ourselves with a nautical themed New England IPA. As far as New England goes, that being from Maine to Connecticut, I tend to think of it as a sea faring region. How land locked Vermont ever got into...
