Wrexham you say? How has a little Welsh community become the center of attention these days? * A model of resilience, comeback kids. They had a football (soccer) team that was floundering. A brewery that was drying up. Things looked dire for the little Welsh...
The majestic lion, the ferocious tiger, the imposing bear. National animals that had Dorothy, the Tin Man and the Scarecrow shaking in their boots, or ruby slippers, as the case may be. * Certainly worthy mammals to adorn any coat of arms and represent the strength of...
I had a hankerin’ to drink curiously, and being a chartered member of the curious club, I know there’s no better beer to do that with than a Something in the Water curious craft. An uncommon K-town common per say? A Painted Lake Peach perhaps? A Tortuga the tortoise...
From the land of the Stampede and the Stampeders (both of them),* Stetsons and the Saddledome. Partake comes from Calgary as a cowboy contender for the COMDB zero percent crown. Now a staple across Canadian and US grocery stores, Partake tell us that they brew “for...
Willy Loman had a dream, but eventually he found out that the American dream wasn’t all it was cracked up to be. The Boss wondered “is a dream a lie if it don’t come true, or is it something worse”. * Quite an ominous introduction to Counterpart’s Dream Pale Ale. A...

Like Pass-Out or Strip Poker, Duck Duck Joose is not a game for kids.* What it is is some semi-serious suds from Kame & Kettle. We have had ducks visit the most spectacular bird feeder in the world, and we have flown with Double Ducks in our day. Not to limit...
Showtime! Jerrod’s Top 5, Rory’s winners and losers and the COMDB secrets to success. The Crownsmen pack more into a one hour show than anyone else could pack into a half hour show! And in what can only be described as the most uplifting part of the show, Jerrod told...
Nudge but don’t bang, feel the ball, finesse those flippers. That’s not game theory, that’s fact derived from hundreds of quarters fed into Flash. But once Space Invaders, Asteroids, Galaga and Centipede and all those other 1980 “new age” games hit the bars, that was...
Our last experience with Paulaner was an alcohol-free brew and let’s put it this way, the rating wasn’t much higher than the ABV. * So this is their opportunity for COMDB redemption. We figured the German brewer has been at it since 1634 so by now I think they should...
