Cheshire Cat

Cheshire Cat

Twelve cats on the can, but I can’t for the life of me figure out what the name has to do about anything, not even about the price of tea in China. But we all know what Shakespeare thought about names. A nice bright golden hazy pour, sliver of white on top. A crisp...

Not on the Level

Not on the Level

I decided to wait 24 hours before writing this review so I could tone down my distaste for this brew. I don’t think I have ever poured a craft beer with no head. I am not sure where the slightly muted golden colour comes from, but it isn’t from the flavour, or to be...

Swedish King?

Swedish King?

Strong Swedish beer, slight lemon notes, very pleasant flavour and smoothness. It could well be a repeat purchase, but it would be a dangerous beer to have around on a hot summer day.

Blast Off

Blast Off

Hitting the space bar again* after a bad experience with a zero gravity beer that garnered a close to zero rating, it was nice to check out Lost in Orbit, which was actually a little more down to earth. This hazy IPA had a fruitful aroma with a bit of bubble to it,...

I had the fire going and was in my comfy recliner with the Dallas football game on the big screen, a frosty stout at my side and chips and dip at hand. Leaving all worries behind this evening, life is good. A thick, dare I say substantial pour. I thought I might have...

Crazy Mad

Crazy Mad

Double Trouble and we aren't talking about Stevie Ray Vaughn’s backup band. When I reviewed Mad Tom I posed the question, is he angry mad or crazy mad. With this strong Imperial IPA, Tom is twice as mad and there is no doubt about it, he is crazy mad, as in seriously...

I did have to cleanse my palette with a Carlsberg first. I am used to drinking out of the can which may explain this less than perfect pour. This flavoured oatmeal stout smells delicious, coffee and chocolate, I can’t wait to have a sip. Ummm. Smooth, delicious with a...

American Canuck?

American Canuck?

My old buddy JT reviewed this one a while ago, but I had one in the fridge standing tall and it looked like the right beer for the Sunday Night Football game and an armchair tailgate party of one. Very much an American Pale Ale style, despite the Canuck* moniker. Even...

Out of Bounds

Out of Bounds

Apparently Creemore’s IPA knows no bounds. I am not quite sure what that means so I thought I might do a tasting and try to figure it out. Nice golden pour with a bright white head, not very hazy, a fine upstanding pour if I do say so myself. Of course you can’t judge...

Bull Run

Bull Run

It was one of those days, so it called for one of those beers.  A strong beer that is. The can caught my eye. It seems their only claim to fame is that they are strong beer, no comments on taste, pour, hops, just 7.1% in the largest font on the can. A beer with a...
