Some fun panda facts for you. These white black big back bears spend 10 to 16 hours a day eating bamboo but they don’t get fat. Know why? No, it’s not because they don’t eat cupcakes. It’s because a panda is just a regular bear, as in very regular. They crap up to 40...
The La Trappe guys and gals (Munks and Nuns) tell us to “Taste the silence”. * What the hell does that mean? I imagine cursing in a Monastery represents some kind of sacrilege, but really? I’ve heard the sounds of silence, the original and the excellent cover by...
Ol’ Lynne Anderson never promised me a rose garden, and that’s OK by me. * When it comes to my beer I’ve never been fond of a floral flourish myself. But I suspect Willibald is being more philosophical than literal naming their pale ale Roses Among Thorns. ** I think...
I’ve been to more than 20 gold mines in my day that I can recall and a few I probably can’t. I had a Good Delivery bar of gold in my hands, with two Mounties at my side for moral support. * When it comes to beer we’ve had Goldbrӓu, Goldie, and Anderson’s Gold. We’ve...
When it comes to my favourite beers, the list is as Wit-less as our egghead Editor. ** I’m in the mood for a wheat beer once in a blue moon, but last night was the end of one of those days. I perused the cottage beer fridge of fable and fame and lo and behold, a...
Sure Italy has the Colosseum, the Trevi Fountain and the Leaning Tower of Pisa, but you know what Italy doesn’t have? That’s right, they don’t have the largest beer spa in the world. You have to make a visit to Clear Lake Canada to experience a suds spa that’s a...
Water’s rising, time to pair up because the ark doesn’t take singles. But if you’re a Kiwi, high tides are no problem. You have your trusty waka on standby, maybe two if you’ve got a big family. * But you need to be well balanced, you don’t want to tip the waka,...
This review will be short and sweet. Short as in angry and sweet because this brew was too damn sweet. Out at The Grist with my wife for life for a tasty repast. The Goat, that traditional Bock mascot, * is the newest addition to the Grist list and my brew du jour....
A firm farm fresh peach off the vine, so fine! I’ve had canned peaches that were so heavenly you’d think the Saints preserved them. And when it comes to a pastry competition, a peach cobbler is a shoe in. Peaches are the stone fruit king, I’d pit them against any...
Lots of love for St. André because I love an amber/dark beer, and this one tastes great. I like the light alcohol at 4.6 and I especially like that it’s brewed in Ontario * and it’s a great price for such a quality brew. Keep it coming please. *Editor’s Comment: Cool...
