Ok Collective Arts, listen up. I have said this before but I am not going to say this again. I figure there must be a few struggling, starving artists in Canada waiting for their big break. For you to give your beer can space to help them is a very Canadian thing to...
What is this March madness? No glass no class, from the bottle and full throttle. In an executive decision I decided I’m not going to wash a glass for 330 ml of ice cold lager that’s going to go down quicker than a Mike Tyson opponent. And I don’t care what day it is,...
Richard Gere had Julia Roberts after midnight on the grand,* tickling the ivories so to speak. The folks at Grand River Brewing** tell us that this Schwarzbier is just like midnight on the Grand (the river not the piano). With blue herons, and ducks and star gazing....
In the year 1854 Oscar Wilde is born, the Republican party was formed, and the original Collingwood Brewery is established. This brew celebrates that brewery milestone as well as the 8th anniversary of the modern-day brewery. This is a different style of freestyle....

Indie Alehouse tell us that this beer is “Guaranteed to improve your dance moves.” I have sent them a video and expect to get a refund shortly. In the meantime, I thought I would review this Euro-Foeder* aged lager. In keeping with their anti-branding campaign, this...
Hob knobbing at a fancy private function, that’s just how we roll at COMDB. An open bar but limited selection, not that I’m complaining. I had a choice, suck on a Heinie or quaff an Ultra.* I have had a few heinies in my day (that didn’t sound good) but had never...
People ask me, how do you sample so many beers and still stay slim and trim. Actually, no one has ever asked me that, but if they did, I could refer to the Beach Ball Fitness Program™, or how I stay active fishing in the summer and watching hockey in the winter. Of...
The COMDB translation department worked overtime on this one. I figured they would be use to four letter words by now so it should be simple enough to translate the word Toña. However nothing is really ever simple when it comes to our translation department. They...
