Panache, sounds foreign to me. The COMDB translation department were already on the case. Once they finished their 24 they got right into translating this beer’s name. Of course “panache” is an English word too, meaning flamboyant confidence of style or manner....
Summertime*, and the livin’ is easy, and this Golden Beach pale ale from Sawdust City is all about summertime. They say they “have tried their darndest to put the best of summer into each can.” Well gosh darn I hope it tastes as good as they say. It pours as yellow as...
Today’s BBQ and beer is fire and Brimstone, Niagara based Brimstone Brewing and their Sinister Minister that is. Looks like it’s the saved that’s needin’ the savin’ this time*. If you want to tell me how great a frosty cold IPA is on a hot summer day slaving over the...
it’s quittin’ time *. I have vivid memories of the Slate Quarry supervisor pulling the tail of some pre-historic parrot, and Fred Flintstone yelling yabba dabba doo* and sliding down the tail of his quarry crane dinosaur and hot footing his way home. I don’t think...
The roman candle* of fireworks fame, a cascade of awe inspiring balls of fire and flame shooting into the air. Sounds like a Kiss concert**. Fireworks have been used for many years to celebrate, and also to represent sex in old movies. How about Jerry Lee Lewis***...

For those of you who think the South Channel is a TV station that features Nascar, Jeff Foxworthy, and Trisha Yearwood’s cooking show, you stand corrected. This South Channel refers to a body of water in Georgian Bay near Parry Sound, not coincidentally home to...
It was a very humid summer day and the anticipation of the Lemon Wheat beer was incredibly high. Lemon and beer are a great combination for a hot summer’s day. When I was a young boy, I’d take my Saturday morning allowance and head to the local neighbourhood store to...
I am no marketing expert that’s for sure, but Farmer Steve knows a thing or two about marketing, I mean those rutabagas don’t sell themselves do they. I am going to have to ask him about what’s going on with this brew. At first I thought I was into another...
Someone asked me the other day if I had done the Collingwood brewery tour. A brewery tour of Collingwood, a ski village 20,000 strong? Just how many breweries could a small town like Collingwood have? Then I got to thinking about all the reviews we have done on The...
