What’s So Funny?

What’s So Funny?

Where is our beloved New Ontario bear? A missing bear is no laughing matter. And what's so funny? Why is this paddle laughing? Is it because I am in a  Cracked Canoe?  Or because I am about to tip my canoe trying to paddle with three kegs of Muskoka Cream Ale in it?...

This One is Gold

This One is Gold

A perfectly poured pint perhaps?  A pretty pour for sure. I need a longer arm to give myself a proper pat on the back for that pour. It’s beer-eautiful. This Big Rig Gold has a malt bread aroma, you can tell there is flavour galore waiting at the door. This is a...

Sun Spray

Sun Spray

Had to rinse off after cracking this one*, but before pouring it of course. Good carbonation that’s for sure. They must have gone deep into the pith of the lemon lime fake flavour because its more bitter than I thought it would be. Full of taste but not distasteful....

Cinco Cinco Cinco

A light tasting, refreshing brew. Needs lime to give that Mexican tilt. This is relatively new beer from 555 Brewing in Picton. A lot of breweries are jumping on the Mexican/Corona bandwagon … no comparison to the number of people who jump on the Maple Leaf bandwagon...

Work Hard, Drink Easy

Work Hard, Drink Easy

Broadhead’s slogan is “Work hard, drink easy”. Certainly not as profound as some of the meanderings on a Flying Monkeys beer can, but somehow appropriate for this down to earth beer. For us COMDB I would revise the slogan to read “Work hard, retire with far less than...

Cheap & Easy

Cheap & Easy

To be honest with you I have been avoiding this brew, without good reason really. It has a prominent position in the grocery store beer section, is quite cheap* and seems hell bent on marketing just 100 calories. Probably my hesitance was quite simply that I usually...

Shindig

Shindig

For those who are not in to all the flavours craft beers have these days and are wistfully remembering a time when a beer came in two types  - Lager or Ale, this could be your ticket. This is a clean, clear lager that is easy drinking. IBU is 14 which is pretty tame...

Yee-Haw, It’s a Shindig

Everyone is invited to the shindig, it’s going to be big. Join us at the hoedown to get the lowdown. It’s a rendezvous with a brew or two.  Come as you are, I wish it was an open bar. So Cowbell Brewery has invited us to a shindig at the big ol’ Cowbell Barn. And we...
