A warm day had me hankering* for an IPA. How about a hazy one? Sure why not. So I went camping with Side Launch on the 5th Coast**. This brew poured golden and slightly hazy, not milkshake hazy. Nice mild hoppy aroma with a touch of fruit in there. The first swig had...
Broadhead’s slogan is “Work hard, drink easy”. Certainly not as profound as some of the meanderings on a Flying Monkeys beer can, but somehow appropriate for this down to earth beer. For us COMDB I would revise the slogan to read “Work hard, retire with far less than...
Waterloo calls this a Canadian IPA. So that is a Canadian Indian Pale Ale, as in the country India of course, just to be clear. Sounds like a beverage suitable and fitting for an embassy soiree perhaps? Nice amber-like pour with a bright white boar’s head. This is a...
To be honest with you I have been avoiding this brew, without good reason really. It has a prominent position in the grocery store beer section, is quite cheap* and seems hell bent on marketing just 100 calories. Probably my hesitance was quite simply that I usually...
Cool evening, good excuse for a dark brew by the fire, not that I need an excuse these days.* Award winning the can says. Not sure what that means anymore. These days awards are like opinions, everyone has one. In my day it was the best and the rest. According to...
Old Tomorrow did a beautiful ale which had a silhouette of Sir John A*. Maybe that's politically incorrect these days** but it was a good beer anyway. Natural flavours? That's a good thing I guess as opposed to the alternative. It definitely has a peachy aroma, with...
This not so pale ale pours a dark golden bordering on amber with a nice snowy white head on top of the mountain.** Fresh aroma with some citrus for our daily vitamin C intake. But there was no fruit in the first swig, it was a little hoppy and bitter, not too bitter...
Everyone is invited to the shindig, it’s going to be big. Join us at the hoedown to get the lowdown. It’s a rendezvous with a brew or two. Come as you are, I wish it was an open bar. So Cowbell Brewery has invited us to a shindig at the big ol’ Cowbell Barn. And we...
Helles*, well I’ll be Amster-damned. What kind of a profanity laced brew is this anyway? We usually save the profanity for the review. “Hell”* of a pour (bright golden), as one would expect, with enough head to reach the rim. Mild malt aroma, not very pronounced. A...
This Witbier from Napanee Beer Company features a woman flying a fighter plane on the can. Well, I guess she isn’t actually flying as the cockpit cover is open, her helmet strap is undone, her goggles are not on and she is waving and winking like she just arrived at...
