Pedal to the metal, head up, hammer down. Making time instead of my usual practice of wasting it. But I was feeling a bit peckish, a bit dry, with a thirst for more than just knowledge if you know what I mean. So I thought I would put all this high-falutin hands free...
I’m on a mission. In order to comply with the COMDB Guide to Beer Tasting I was not able to review the brews I sampled at the MBAA conference. However the tasters I tasted tasted good, the word tasty comes to mind. But in order to do a legitimate brew review I must...
Site visit and it’s a Cranky Old Daft draft date. RA, Farmer Steve and I belly up to the beer bar for a bold cold one. Kudos to Adam and team for their service and support of us suds swilling seniors, although to be honest I think it was the bar supporting us. Our...
Emerald Stout! A stout from the Emerald Isle? Nope, a stout from the grocery store aisle. Right beside the Buble (not Bublé) and the Canada Dry, it’s another entrant into our COMDB zero percent experiment. Against the good advice of Dr. Alex Speers * we are pouring...

When it comes to a collab between Sawdust City and Muddy York, that’s a big deal. Well, actually it’s a Bigger Deal. This bourbon barrel 9 month aged wee heavy weighs in at a hefty 9% and is a 4 year later follow up to our review of SC’s Big Deal Wee Heavy (Strong...
Amber how do I love thee, let me count the ways, Your pore I adore, and what’s more, an aroma of toffee, oft greets me. I love thy caramel malt countenance, your lager sweet innocence, And how you dwell not on bitter thought, but on that smooth finish I like a lot....
Prince Edward County. Claim to fame, the home of Prince Eddy’s Brewing and the Picton Sandbanks. Way back in the day we made an unsanctioned high school final year pilgrimage to the Sandbanks and let me assure you there was some coastal quaffing in the offing. A 24...
