Leisure Suits Him

Leisure Suits Him

This is a small brewery in Prince Edward County that focuses on small batches and using locally ingredients. A brewer that focuses on the beer, not the label – a refreshing approach. Landbier is actually German meaning “Country Lager”, trying the reflect the fact that...

I don’t generally go about seeking dark beers, but I may have to change my purchase plans after this fantastic surprise from a new brewery in Prince Edward County. This beer pours very dark which had me a little nervous from the outset. But if you are used to drinking...

Another Ethical Review

When my old buddy Farmer Steve saw this beer he said it must be good since it has a tractor on the can. Well we all know you can’t judge a beer by its cover, so a tasting was in order.  Truth be told  I have chugged-a-lug before, but reviewing by memory seems to be...

I was happy to try out this dark lager from the Harald Haus (don’t you guys have spellcheck). I chilled a glass, when I go to the dark side I like my beer colder than a stepmother's kiss. Lay’s low salt chips (at my age trying to eat healthy) with ranch dip. So the...

I am visiting the dark side again, quaffing another dark cold one. On the can it says “Let the midnight stars light your way to this dark lager.” I am here for the beer, not a fancy-pants poetry reading. I say let the beer do the talking. I like the name, Midnight...

A Gluten for Punishment

I get easily confused these days.  It says this lager is brewed in Spain but for some reason Moosehead is in the mix somehow? “The most award winning gluten free beer in the world” according to their website.  But on the label it says, and I quote ” This product is...

A DAB in the Dark

Cheering on my beloved buds tonight with a brewed in Germany Dortmunder Dark. And in the immortal words of Arte Johnson’s German character on Laugh-In*, this beer is  “veeery interesting”. Dab’s dark lager pours very dark with a nice whitish tan head. Light aroma, a...

Draft or Draught?

Draft or Draught?

We used to order trays of cheap draft (I think it used to be spelled draught) in a bar where the entertainment was the guy drunker than you were, and occasionally the entertainment was you. You ordered draft (or draught), a tray was as many glasses as could fit on the...

7 Fewer Politicians gets my Vote

It took me longer to type the name of this beer than it did to write the rest of the review! A Czech Dark Lager, sounds delicious. There is a long drawn out story of how in the 1400’s seven politicians were thrown from an upper floor window, and so on and so forth....
