I heard about this hotel that hands you a beer with your room key, so of course I had to check in to it. And sure enough I was handed a nice chilly bottle of Dos Equis Especial Lager por favor and mucho gracias. Brewed since 1897 from the Montezuma Brewery*. They even...
Rad* used to be what we hung our wet winter clothes over to get them dry. Now I guess rad means cool or super. Pig also has taken on a few slang meanings which I won’t go into here, but in this case it refers to Clark the Pig, the mascot of Thornbury Crafts and local...
Monty’s* commemorative brew is from Tomorrow Brew Co., their old name was Old Tomorrow**, but now they are looking to the future. A dark golden approaching amber pour, with a slim trim head. A definite hint of rye in the aroma, and a touch of vanilla, both masking any...

Lots to unravel here. I asked the COMDB translation department about the name “Omnipollo”*, assuming it was Swedish since the group originated there. They tell me that is not the case and in fact the name originates from the English word omnipotence and the Spanish...
Not the pallet cleansing green Carlsberg I am used to. This brew is a little malty, with maybe a hint of Mcintosh taffy. A good fall beer after pulling down a tree*. A little bitter with some caramel hints. On the can it has Rush 9 and the fans chanting to the Beatles...
Sidney Sheldon asks us if we are afraid of the dark? Robert Cray implores us not to be.* If you suffer from nyctophobia**, that would be fear of the dark, I can’t help you there. But if you are a nyctocervisiaphobia*** sufferer, that would be fear of dark beer, I have...
