Doctor: It appears you have Cammaphobia. * Patient: Please don’t use that letter. Doctor. And it is clearly quite an acute case. Patient: Please stop. Doctor: Aren’t you curious about a cure? Patient: Stop please. Doctor: Drink one Blak Katt stout every day. Patient:...
This Trappist* Orval ale ordeal started out as a foam fest and only got worse. As foamy as it gets and then some. A head so thick it could hold up a bank, and it took more time to settle than a Trump law suit (pick one, any one). Luckily, I was in no hurry, although...
At the Burrard Street Ballyhoo for a brew or two, and some dinner too. When in Rome, visit the coliseum, when in Vancouver, carry an umbrella and drink local. Time for a Phillips and we're not talking milk of magnesia, but an Implosion of the Pilsner ilk. Some...
Cranky Old Men are in the house once again at the annual CIM mining Convention, soaking in the Vancouver sun and wrap tapping the Mining Now show with Jerrod and Rory. Back in the day these conferences were all about drinking triples, seeing double and acting single....

“Una Más” required a frantic reach out to the COMDB translation department. With their trademark disdain to all of us who are unilingual, they informed me that “the obvious translation is “one more”. I told them, “but I’m a one and done kinda guy”. “Una y Listo? Ese...
Despite a sometimes hazy memory to go with a hazy IPA, this Haze Phaze beer did look very familiar. It was when I tasted it that I remembered RA sampled this Mill Streeter at the Blue Jays game and remarked that it was “bitter up” during his seventh inning stretch. It...
Contrary to popular belief, ACME is not a mail order weaponry supply house for coyotes, wily or otherwise.* However, one popular belief that is in fact correct is that I love me an amber. So I’m out with the missus for eye-talian and I’m thinking Peroni or Moretti...
