This Q Without the U is A-OK

This Q Without the U is A-OK

Not too often you see a Q without a U.* QBrew is not a scrabble approved play, but it is a new brew from Mill Street. According to them, “the only regret we have is that we spent too much time as misguided youth drinking sub-standard ales”. If that’s their only...

This Beer is History

This Beer is History

This Watertown NY brew caught my eye. I wondered why a US brewery would name a beer after a war they lost. Turns out the US thinks they won the war of 1812. So does Canada. Historians call it a draw, a stalemate with no concessions by either side. Of course, we all...

Professor Porter

Professor Porter

My higher education continues with glasses classes and we ain’t talking about optometry school either. It’s another Beer 101 assignment, this time with Professor Porter. After nearly being suspended for some baby shower beer tasting, it was time to hit the bocks and...

What’s Up?

What’s Up?

How low can you go is an expression often applicable to the COM AGM, but in this case it’s this beer’s ABV. The trend of 0% ABV has been quickly followed with the Micro beer trend, extra low ABVs for those who can’t handle a light beer but don’t want to be a zero....

And That’s the Truth

And That’s the Truth

I got down to downtown Hogtown’s Beertown, so here’s the lowdown on what was going down. It may not surprise you to know that what was going down at Beertown is beer and lots of it. With so many brews from which to choose what was I to do? Shout out to Haley at...

Throwing One Down, Cold Gold

Throwing One Down, Cold Gold

How about those Olympics. The games are exciting, with Canadians swimming, diving, fencing, jumping, and throwing hammers and people*, for the gold. I’m not too sure about the CBC though. First of all, their Olympic motto is “Brave is Unbeatable”. Inspirational?...

Philly Light Does It Right

Philly Light Does It Right

Back on the farm for some MacKinnon malt and some home-grown hops. Yep, it’s another MacKinnon Brothers special, this time a Philly light. We enjoyed their bread baking beer sipping Nanna’s namesake, Philomena Pilsner. Could this be another reference to Grandma...
