Summer time and it’s party shorts weather. I reach for my sunglasses to intercept the blinding bright light reflecting from my fish belly white legs. But have no fear, a farmer’s tan is on the horizon. In the meantime, my midday East of the sun location has created an...
Muskoka had us take a Detour before, a light session IPA that garnered mixed reviews. But if you think a session IPA is off the beaten track, Muskoka is about to veer to the far left (ABV content as opposed to any implied political leanings) with their non-alcoholic...
It was Ron Burgundy, anchorman of fame and infamy, and a classic classless ass who ironically uttered those words every night “You stay classy San Diego”. Is Bellwoods doing a tip of the tankard to Will Ferrell’s alter ego? * Or are they simply implying that by...
Emerald Stout! A stout from the Emerald Isle? Nope, a stout from the grocery store aisle. Right beside the Buble (not Bublé) and the Canada Dry, it’s another entrant into our COMDB zero percent experiment. Against the good advice of Dr. Alex Speers * we are pouring...

From the land of the Stampede and the Stampeders (both of them),* Stetsons and the Saddledome. Partake comes from Calgary as a cowboy contender for the COMDB zero percent crown. Now a staple across Canadian and US grocery stores, Partake tell us that they brew “for...
After a couple of armchair visits to Europe which included a super suds Bitburger, I find myself back in Germany, as we continue our 0 percent experiment. Paulaner, a world famous Munich brewer, has taken on the non-alcoholic brewing challenge with their Weissbier 0.0...
You’re a Cranky Old Captain assigned to fly that red eye from YYZ to YVR. * Riding in on the UP Express, you have a hankering for Henderson’s Best, an amber for the ages, and the aged. But no one wants a Foster Brooks ** at the wheel of their 747. What to do? How...
