I am not the most politically correct person in the world but I am trying.* One way I do that is to run some ideas past the missus. For example, not long ago I asked the wife “Have you seen what is going on with these perverted men taking advantage of women and being...
Flying Monkeys, purveyors of fine IPAs. But can they brew a lager? When I saw this beer on the shelf I had to try it out. I have been impressed with the FM IPA offerings I have tried to date so I was eager to see how they handled a lager. On the can it poses a deep...
Husband: “Last night you said I was the best!” Wife: “No dear, last night I said you tried your best.” It cooled off in the evening and the lake calmed, a sliver moon illuminated the water and it seemed like the perfect evening to break out an amber. But not just any...
Mill St. has certainly embraced the healthy beer drinking* market, with another in their line of Organic offerings. I like Mill St and their beers, particularly their amber lager, so I set the bar (pun intended) high for them. Nice summer evening, chilled glass and a...
Perth Brewery says the last fatal duel with firearms in Canada* was fought in 1833 in Perth, Ontario. I imagine that in the days of dueling with firearms every duel was the last duel for at least one participant. Even if it wasn’t fatal, if I lost a duel I wouldn’t be...
"Captain's log, stardate 41153.7. Our destination is planet Deneb IV …". I remember watching Star Trek as a kid when it first came out. I think I was 8 year’s old and at that time I thought “what a lame show, paper mache rocks, every other planet somehow has oxygen,...
Sneaky Weasel is advertised as “Now 30% Sneakier” which definitely caught my eye. * It has a golden clear pour with a full head of froth, impressive looking. It’s listed as a lager, but I found it has a bitterness to it that is closer to an ale. Refreshing and with a...
Brewed in the historic hamlet of Kingston, home of institutions of education and incarceration. Sir John A drank there, and drank, and drank some more. The father of confederation was a regular at the Royal Tavern* in Kingston so we are told. So what is a Mexican...
Not as blonde as a blonde, not as dark as a lager, a lagered blonde perhaps? Correct. This isn’t Henderson’s best. In fact Henderson’s Best is Henderson’s best, or Henderson’s best is Henderson’s Best. No matter how you say it Henderson’s Best Amber Lager is pretty...
Beer with purpose. It’s not “pay it forward”, its’ “Drink It Forward”. Socially driven capitalism. They say ,and I believe them, that $.50 from every beer purchased goes to worthwhile charities.* Which led Farmer Steve to wonder “is this still a profit making deal.”...
