Editor’s Comment: When we got a postcard “Wish you were beer” we knew our intrepid international man of mystery, JT, was on the road again. This trip finds him in Budapest, Hungary. Budapest has a myriad of must see spots including the stunning architecture of the...
It’s the big day. Our trick or treat countdown has encountered goblins and ghouls, flying monkeys and the devil himself. But what could be scarier than the spirits that occupy this 750ml bottle of 10% Imperial Stout The Summoning! This summons isn’t for a parking...
They say the devil is in the details. * They say a lot of other trite cliches as well, but some how this one seemed appropriate. Our Cranky Old trick or treat countdown has bookend Blood Brothers Bellwoods brews. First their Goblin’s Trill, and now their Devil’s...

They cancelled the Late Night show of the Honorary Mayor of Dildo, * can you believe it! But one week later Jimmy was back with a vengeance, literally. ** Me, I’m having a Late Night at noon for a 5 o’clock somewhere brew, no cable required for this daytime drama....
It’s no surprise that spaced out Brewer Paniza, * purveyor of such self-professed out of this world pints as Jupiter Pilsner, and Mars Bock, would name their oatmeal stout Black Hole. A black hole is no laughing matter when you understand the gravity of the...
A beer from Moxee? No. A beer with moxie?* Maybe. A beer that is a shout out to the town of Moxee, in Washington State. Yes. 6 hours Southeast of Vancouver depending on the time it takes for the cross-border body cavity search, Officer Ben Dover presiding. Moxee is...
