In most cases the hockey captain is sober before the game, and I know if the Leafs’ captain is getting drunk after a playoff game it’s not on champagne. Henderson offered us their best and when we were done with that we got their least, a zero IPA that was OK. So...
This poem is not a weighty tome, just a simple tome to foam, Something in Niagara’s amiss, the Maid of the Mist is missing her mist. Tell the poor lass what’s come to pass is it’s in my glass en masse. But not to worry we’re in no hurry, We won’t be late, there’s a...
It’s US thanksgiving, so let’s talk turkey. It’s football day in America and I’m game. And of course, Black Friday. So named because that is the day your bank account goes from black to red, signifying that Christmas is just around the corner. Sounds like it’s stout...
Winding Run? More like a winded run for me. The fine folks at Sawdust City tell us that Fall is a great time for a morning run through the woods. A morning run for me these days is a hop in the truck and over to Timmies for a Large Regular and a box of muffins. Way...

Atherley, with the famous swing bridge, the infamous Atherley Arms and fortunes won (and lost) at nearby Casino Rama. Along with the natural beauties of the scenic meeting place of Lake Simcoe and Lake Couchiching, some may say there were natural beauties at the...
Whenever I watch the evolution of a nitro in my glass I think beer pouring could well be a spectator sport. A nitro stout fade to black is magic in the spirits world, the inverse of Metallica’s take on the subject. * So it was with these mountain high hopes that I...
3 Rocks isn’t our first Second Wedge, but our fourth, and we’ve come to count on them for some 5 star brews. How’s that for a Sesame Street segue, thank goodness we didn’t get to 6…7. But what’s in a name? In this case letters and a number. Could the name be in...
Our featured brewer out of Saint-Jérôme, Québec, is Dieu du Ciel, translation; God of the Sky. * Speaking of Gods of the sky, have you heard the story of Uranus and Cronus. You may have some relationship issues with your kids but there probably aren’t many of you out...
