You have your friendliest ghost, that would be Casper. Then there is the studly apparition Sam Wheat (Patrick Swayze). Or how about Slimer, a gross ghost, a ghrost? Bettlejuice (Michael Keaton) is certainly in the running for grossest and most spirited spirit. A...
In doing these beer reviews I have been to Helles and bock. Amster-damn helles, big rock bock helles. By day visiting the sun gods and at night by the gaslight, and all points in between. I think it was Winston Churchill who said “If you find yourself drinking a...
Slingshot? For those of you biblically inclined you may be thinking of young David’s weapon of choice.* However in this case slingshot does not refer to Goliath’s demise but is in fact another Gateway tribute to a local landmark, a run at the Laurentian Ski Hill. Some...
Dylan warned us about a hard rain. Gene Kelly was singing and dancing in it. Prince coloured it purple. And old Noah he navigated through it for days on end. But what this Rainhard is bringing us is a torrential downpour of juice on the loose, a crazy hazy IPA From...
Godspeed Brewery refers to their beers as “intentionally eclectic” and they ain't lyin'. In fact, I think that may be a bit of an understatement, like saying the Beatles were popular. After sampling their barley wine imperial coffee stout, now I am into a saison. But...

Attending a wedding reception and I have been designated the designated driver, perhaps due to past performances at similar events? So, it’s one and done for me. Meanwhile the Department of Morality is into the rum and colas like Hunter S Thompson on a visit to San...
Cranking up the old BBQ, and poppin’ the top on a Hail Mary from Brimstone Brewing. Naming a beer Hail Mary, is that sacrilege? The last BB brew review was their Sinister Minister, I think these guys at Brimstone are playing with fire. Hold up in an old church, they...
In my youth I was a reader with a social life to match. The name of this brew reminded me of one of the modern classics that I tackled in my younger days. Could it be Heller giving us hell in “Catch 22”? Or Burgess with his colourful “Clockwork Orange”? Perhaps Capote...
Sure looks like a Corona copy to me. From the Cool (not Coors) Beer company. Out of Mimico, I kid you not.* They even instruct you to “add a twist of lime” on the bottle. What’s different is this is a light beer as in both quantity light and ABV light. There is...
