Mango, coconut, and vanilla vibes in my beer, oh my! Will these vibes be good, bad, or indifferent? Let’s examine the various constituents. I love me some mango and a coconut every now and then is good for the soul. As far as vanilla you wouldn’t be surprised to know...
We recently answered the age-old question “What’s in a name?”, that being some letters usually organized in a recognizable way and the occasional hyphen. But Indie Alehouse has dubbed these sunny suds Shadow Chaser? What’s that all about? I seem to recall Peter Pan’s...
Contrary to what some may believe, super dope isn’t in reference to our Editor. In modern day slang it means cool, awesome and great and in that context it’s definitely not a reference to our Editor.* What is happening here is that Town is calling this West Coast IPA...
Another defining moment in the history of COMDB! Entangled “to be involved in a confusing or difficult situation.” Used in a sentence. “I am entangled in the tasting of this dark IPA.” Lake of Bays tell us we will be “wrapped up in flavour.” Wrapped maybe, rapt, not...

A fireside chat with a duck and it’s double. But after a shake of a duck’s tail when the polaroid was fully developed, I find out another duck photobombed my pic. Three ducks! A mischievous mallard snuck into the frame and there’s nothing I can do about it, I’m...
No Leisure Suit Larry here, we’re talking polyester track pants Paul, as in Jeff Paul, who Trestle adoringly refer to as their, and I quote, “sweatsedo superhero”. The diatribe on the can has more adjectives than my Thesaurus and summarizes by describing track pants...
