"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...

Boshkung say their beers are focused on cottage living. This one will be quaffed by the cottage fireplace as opposed to the dock. This small batch lager offering poured golden, closing in on amber but not quite there, and clear with a thin light white head. Malt...
Audio visual lager?? I am not going to a film festival for musicals, I just wanted a brew to enjoy during the game. Scan a bar code to check out new music? A bar code for me is the draft menu at the local pub. Doesn’t it all just seem to be some marketing ploy to...
Despite a disastrous tasting with their Scotch Beer I gave Innis & Gunn a second chance with their Scottish Lager, which sounded good. Poured with almost no head, just a wisp of white like the last few strands of hair on a cranky old crown. I remember my old buddy...
When your company is Guinness you don’t have to include “Brewery” in your name, everyone knows what you are good at. And with the name Guinness also comes a high level of expectation. I was really looking forward to trying this one, thirsting with antici……………….pation....
