They say the devil is in the details. * They say a lot of other trite cliches as well, but some how this one seemed appropriate. Our Cranky Old trick or treat countdown has bookend Blood Brothers Bellwoods brews. First their Goblin’s Trill, and now their Devil’s...
Kicking off the Cranky Old trick or treat countdown with the alliterative craft collab combo of Bellwoods & Blood Brothers. I’m doubling down and downing a double with a Goblin’s Trill. Will it be the trill of victory or the agony of defeat? * Both brewers were...
A beer from Moxee? No. A beer with moxie?* Maybe. A beer that is a shout out to the town of Moxee, in Washington State. Yes. 6 hours Southeast of Vancouver depending on the time it takes for the cross-border body cavity search, Officer Ben Dover presiding. Moxee is...
Parsons. The name sounded familiar. I do have a couple of Alan Parsons Project LPs, and I have attended church when required to, but I never dated the Parsons daughter. * But I think I remember seeing a Parsons at one of the COMDB AGMs (Annual Golf Meeting) but it...

On the farm everything is pretty down to earth. * You don’t give your livestock pretty names, a gelding is a gelding, no dickin’ around. So, it’s no surprise that the Anderson clan down on the homestead have some straightforward brew names. There was their cream ale,...
21 Pilots tell us that they aren’t just graffiti on a passing train, but this beer is. I tried to listen to the song from the beer can, * but the damn singer talks so fast I couldn’t get an ear in edge wise. I guess it’s one of them modern new-fangled hip-hop rap...
From a teeter totter to hop scotch, * but it’s not all fun and games at COMDB. It’s time for some serious Scottish suds sampling as we make an armchair journey from the Great Lakes to one of the great lochs, Loch Lomond. We’ve had the pleasure of pouring and scoring a...
Sal and Dean lived life large on the road. Wyatt and Billy’s cross border chopper hop started and ended on the road, literally. Anthony (Man) and Pedro were rollin’ on down the road, high times on the highway. And Otter and Boon’s response to their frat house demise...
