This poem is not a weighty tome, just a simple tome to foam, Something in Niagara’s amiss, the Maid of the Mist is missing her mist. Tell the poor lass what’s come to pass is it’s in my glass en masse. But not to worry we’re in no hurry, We won’t be late, there’s a...
The COMDB NB Mystery Pack challenge continues with an assortment of alphabetized IPAs to sample and score. The previous mystery pack pint, let’s just call it “A”, because that’s what it’s called, is done and dusted. Time for Plan B, and as Tom Robbins tells us, B is...
3 Rocks isn’t our first Second Wedge, but our fourth, and we’ve come to count on them for some 5 star brews. How’s that for a Sesame Street segue, thank goodness we didn’t get to 6…7. But what’s in a name? In this case letters and a number. Could the name be in...

Another Frontibus in front of us, right from the Gaspe coast to my end table coaster. Our COMDB Translation Department made quick work of this one. L’Amiral is “The Admiral” in English. Now if you’re thinking about Horatio Nelson or that old joke about the “rear”...
This isn’t the first pint of paradise we have partaken in. We found Paradise Lost and sampled Newfoundland’s provincial bird,* the Space Puffin straight out of Paradise NL. This Clifford pint of paradise is artificial, and that’s official, but not superficial. We...
