We enjoy and have sampled a lot of Muskoka Brewery brews, so I was slightly surprised, a tad shocked, a bit put back, and in general unaware that we had not sampled the Mad Tom version of the Juicy IPA known as Hazed & Confused.* Time to set things right. Hockey...
If a cow is a bovine, a horse is equine, and a sheep is ovine, what is a pig? It turns out a pig is porcine, who knew? Another Jeopardy winner for you. On to more serious matters. Season opener and my beloved buds are tangling with the hated habs. I will spare you...
The East Coast Tour continues. After visiting Bathurst, now it’s time to drop in on Trailway Brewing in Fredericton and their double IPA. Sensible Nonsense sounds like a Refined Fools brew, or an apt description of most political campaigns these days, but what do I...
You may not know this but I am quite the art lover. Of course, there are the dogs playing poker and the velvet Elvis looking kingly, and the antique scratch map of the world, all classics. But I also enjoy the modern art these brewers adorn their beers with. Beaus...

A Down Under review seems like the right time to give a shout out to my roo wrestlin’ mate from the land of Aus, Barry the Bard, from your seal hugging mate in the great white North. Hope that MAP (Marsupial Accident Prevention) safety plan is working for you down...
Take it easy, slow and steady, Big Rig is haulin’ an Alpha Bomb. In addition to being a real bomb*, and the signature wrestling move* of “The Alpha Male” Monty Brown, the Alpha Bomb is a Big Rig Hazy IPA. I just poured one into my glass, being careful to avoid any...
Ever notice how some of these very common phrases just aren’t true. I mean obviously timing isn’t everything, I could be in line at Tim Hortons right behind Warren Buffet* and we get chatting about some deep macro-economic topic and next thing you know he asks me to...
