Seems like it's been raining for three days solid. If I wanted this weather I would have moved to Vancouver years ago. Farmer Steve might be welcoming this drenching, but not me. Time to check out the beer fridge and see what temptations are lurking there. Shade, a...
A brunch brew for the Crownsmen crew on another thirsty Thursday show. We didn’t solve many of the pressing problems the world faces today, unlike our usual shows. Our keen observations, amazing insights and implementable solutions are usually driven by 5% plus...
"Oh, East is East, and West is West, and never the twain shall meet" so said Rudyard Kipling * long before Muskoka brewed this bicoastal toast to East and West. The brew name reminded me of Howard Hughes, or is that Hugh Hefner? I always get those two confused. One...

My old buddy DT (his initials not his condition) got his BMW out (his motorcycle not his preppy mid life crisis) and sent a note saying it was spring and time for some IPAs. Of course we all know that any time is a good time for a good IPA and a good IPA is always...
