When it comes to beer, here at COMDB we look for excellence in brewing. Our Editor on the other hand looks for excellence in spelling, specifically when spelling the word “excellence” correctly. “Athletic Excellance”?* I guess Daft doesn’t consider a spelling bee to...
Oktoberfest is in the air, How I wish I could be there. But since I’m stuck here, I think I’ll have a Helles beer. I know what you’re thinking, why doesn’t he work for Hallmark? I often ask myself the same question. It just doesn’t make sense; there’s no rhyme or...
Flower power, the rallying cry of hippies everywhere in the 60’s. A floral fixation perhaps? It won’t be long until all those hippies are pushing up daisies. Meanwhile the only advice we boomers have for the whining wet behind the ears Gen Z’s is “suck it up...
In the woods, drinking a Big Apple brew from a Little Apple brewer. Toronto* based Amber Brewery has whipped up an American style New York not so pale ale for us. Suds on the Hudson. Way back in the day (when the Canadian dollar was par with the US dollar) we enjoyed...

Something in the Water got the name for this beer from Hulvey’s song “Poor Party”. Hulvey tells us that “all my life I wanted to be rich” but The Beatles warned us that no matter how rich you are you can’t buy love. Halsey (no relation to Hulvey) laments that if she...
From a lone wolf on the oil soaked foothills of Edmonton, to a very berry tarty party on the Gaspesiénne coast of Québec. My comfy recliner in front of the big screen is getting some air miles tonight. We are back in la Belle Province with another Frontibus in front...
Not just any wolf, this one is The Wolf. Of all the canis lupus in all the wild wolf habitats in all the world, this is the one. Should we call him Neo or is that too obvious an anagram?* Neo Wolf, not to be confused with Nero Wolfe. ** It seems my digressions know no...
