Dad was a proud union man although he complained as much about the union as he did about the company. I guess it’s true, there is no perfect union, but it doesn’t hurt to strive for a more perfect one.* I remember the old man saying that anyone that crossed the...
The show that treads that fine line between informing and offending, this is the latest edition of the Crownsmen Chronicles. Some controversial (but cordial) comments were made, will the show be cancelled? Maybe the last show? Say it isn’t so! Were we reminiscing...
Once upon a time there was an impressionable young brewer from Edmonton named Sea Change. One day while watching a beautiful rainbow form over the prairie skies he met Fruit Loop * and it was then and there that they decided to get together and brew Prairie Fairy....

Some day drinking on a Thursday. You guessed it, time for another edition of the COMDB & Crownsmen Show. Jerrod’s top 5 list was the top 5 Crownsmen shows. Upon review it was determined that most important factor in terms of viewer numbers and engagement was...
Me and Steve Miller really love those peaches. * That’s right, I love me a nice juicy peach. Off the tree, in a pie, or a cobbler, how about a peach scone. I’m doing my best Pavlov’s dog impersonation right now. And every now and then a peachy pint hits the spot too....
