Ol’ Lynne Anderson never promised me a rose garden, and that’s OK by me. * When it comes to my beer I’ve never been fond of a floral flourish myself. But I suspect Willibald is being more philosophical than literal naming their pale ale Roses Among Thorns. ** I think...
I’ve been to more than 20 gold mines in my day that I can recall and a few I probably can’t. I had a Good Delivery bar of gold in my hands, with two Mounties at my side for moral support. * When it comes to beer we’ve had Goldbrӓu, Goldie, and Anderson’s Gold. We’ve...
When it comes to my favourite beers, the list is as Wit-less as our egghead Editor. ** I’m in the mood for a wheat beer once in a blue moon, but last night was the end of one of those days. I perused the cottage beer fridge of fable and fame and lo and behold, a...
Sure Italy has the Colosseum, the Trevi Fountain and the Leaning Tower of Pisa, but you know what Italy doesn’t have? That’s right, they don’t have the largest beer spa in the world. You have to make a visit to Clear Lake Canada to experience a suds spa that’s a...
Water’s rising, time to pair up because the ark doesn’t take singles. But if you’re a Kiwi, high tides are no problem. You have your trusty waka on standby, maybe two if you’ve got a big family. * But you need to be well balanced, you don’t want to tip the waka,...
This review will be short and sweet. Short as in angry and sweet because this brew was too damn sweet. Out at The Grist with my wife for life for a tasty repast. The Goat, that traditional Bock mascot, * is the newest addition to the Grist list and my brew du jour....
A firm farm fresh peach off the vine, so fine! I’ve had canned peaches that were so heavenly you’d think the Saints preserved them. And when it comes to a pastry competition, a peach cobbler is a shoe in. Peaches are the stone fruit king, I’d pit them against any...
Lots of love for St. André because I love an amber/dark beer, and this one tastes great. I like the light alcohol at 4.6 and I especially like that it’s brewed in Ontario * and it’s a great price for such a quality brew. Keep it coming please. *Editor’s Comment: Cool...
When it comes to World domination, Bowie thought the man who sold the world had been dead for years but he met him face to face in 1970. Cobain met him again in 93. * I have a theory about why the man who sold the world is so hard to find. I think it’s the classic...
On April 9th 1917 at 5:30AM the consolidated Canadian Corps, all four divisions, began an artillery barrage on the German stronghold of Vimy Ridge. By April 12th the battle was won, but at the ultimate cost for many; 3,598 Canadian lives lost. Another 7,004 wounded,...
