It sure is a long trek to Newfoundland but well worth it, as we can see from the COMDB brew tour of the rock. But the tour doesn’t have to end when we leave the island. As long as we have some NL brews in the ol’ beer fridge we can armchair tour the rock, no time...
This review is going to be more confused than usual so listen up. I’m in Vegas and always looking local, so I see a pilsner on the menu, Golden Nites from Henderson Nevada based Lovelady, and it gets me reminiscing romantic so I order one. What comes to me is a crazy...
New Westminster is 18kms from downtown Vancouver, or 1 hour and 15 minutes by cab at 4PM. And I thought Toronto traffic was bad (it is). What’s so special about New Westminster? It was the one-time capital of British Columbia, and the oldest Western Canadian city, so...
Lunching in the quaint harborside town of Burlington, and once again I find myself at Pepperwood for a high level meeting of the minds.* I don’t usually mix beer and business but when you are meeting with the creator and head honcho of Mining4Beer, it seemed to make...
After an afternoon playing golf with Mr. Mulligan* during which the heat was not beat, I needed an icy cold brewski to banish the triple bogey blues. I came to a cold and crushable conclusion, a sleek slim silver can of Cool Beer in my cooler, as cold as a walk on the...

Decew Falls is at it again. Trying to educate me to local history. It just so happens that my Granddaughter did a project on Harriet Tubman* so I wasn’t caught in my unawares, so to speak. I knew about North Street, I guess that makes me street savvy.* Just as Laura...
How low can you go is an expression often applicable to the COM AGM, but in this case it’s this beer’s ABV. The trend of 0% ABV has been quickly followed with the Micro beer trend, extra low ABVs for those who can’t handle a light beer but don’t want to be a zero....
Happy International Beer Day from Mount Urpin. * Ok, maybe I’m a day late and a dollar short but what the hell. Being a day or two late for our anniversary didn’t stop me from taking the missus out to a nice romantic dinner at the local brewery, now did it. The way I...
So what’s new at New Ontario Brewing? Well to start with New Ontario isn’t new and isn’t New Ontario anymore either. What is new is a new name, Wildwoods Brewing.* I made a visit and inquired as to what brought on this name change, because I thought New Ontario had a...
