On the beer can there is a picture of a nice big Muskoka chair on the dock with a frosty brew on the chair arm. A bit of a breeze, birds in the air, all very summery and relaxing. But what’s wrong with this picture? Let me tell you. In the background there is a canoe...
I was feeling a little pale and hazy myself last night so this seemed like a good beer to sample. Some may question whether the right choice when you are feeling a little under the weather is to quaff a frosty mug, but I believe that your mental health is important...
BBQ fired up. Steaks on the grill. Tunes on the deck. Sun shining and a frosty glass with an adult beverage at hand. Why am I smiling? Well, why wouldn’t I be? But perhaps a larger smile than usual because I have just lucked out. I bought this Ace Hill Pilsner to try...
Definition of premium: Relating to or denoting a commodity or product of superior quality. I guess that is what they are trying to convince us of here. Do you ever get the feeling that the word “premium”, like many other special descriptors (the word special comes to...

The other day I was out pulling weeds, yanking up those f*7#@ dandelions. You know what I hate more than yard work? Nothing. I hate yard work with a passion. But it makes for big points with the wife and since I have a severe points deficit*, I do some lawn work....
Lincoln Lager? Not sure where the name came from* so I thought I would check as to whether Abraham Lincoln ever drank beer. According to an absolutely dependable and unimpeachable information source (Google) “Lincoln did for a time drink lager beer on the advice of a...
I go to my freezer to pull out a chilled glass, but the only one there is a pilsner freeze glass which are great when you need a super cold, cold refreshing brew. But my old buddy Rick says that sometimes these beers, particularly porters and stouts, evolve a bit as...
