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...
I’m at the tail end of a bad hair decade, and the next ten years don’t look any better, so every day is hat day for me. Of course, it’s hats off when the national anthem plays, or you enter the Legion for a cold one.* Or in church unless you’re the Pope, and chances...
Toasts to the ghosts! All hallows eve and the neighbourhood youth are out in full force. The grandkids got a haul of candy that would choke Willie Wonka. Unfortunately, when it comes to my favourite, the red licorice, the pickin’s were as slim as Paris runway model....
From Chambly in the Belle Province, just East of Montreal, to just East of everything else. It’s a whitecap rolling in from the far East coast, as in the Rock. A Newfoundland ultra-light from Port Rexton, this NEIPA is in session. While sight-seeing in PR in addition...
According to the fine folks at Flying Monkeys Meep Morp is, and I quote “the peaceful greeting of the hop-hybroids sharing their alpha-advanced cryo-charged civilization with our water-rich planet”. A High-Density Hop-Charged IPA they tell us. Sounds like there was a...

From downtown Toronto to the shipyards of Vancouver, I’m on the East to West armchair express. Sampling this West Coast brew called East of the Sun from North Point breweries and with no sense of direction this review is going South pretty quick. But the name of this...
Water on the water, beer on the pier. Pier pressure or just good advice? * Time to lock and roll with Port Dalhousie’s Lock Street and fill it up to the brim to win with Brimstone brewery. But a beer named Pier Pressure could be a Pilsner from Coast, or a Kolsch from...
The haze brigade sounds like the cranky old men the morning after our AGM. “Theirs is not to reason why, theirs is but to do and feel like death drawn over the next day.”* And the emaciated fellow on the can looks like the cranky old men the morning after our AGM. Or...
Another candidate for a COMDB beer naming party. An IPA, that’s some pretty lazy beer naming if you ask me. With over 170,000 words in the English language you would think you might be able to string together an adjective and a noun at least and come up with...
