On this special Canada Day review we are hoisting Market's lite beer, Let It Fly, up the proverbial flag pole to see who salutes it. In this case Let It Fly is of course referring to our flag, the beloved maple leaf*. You didn't think I would be reviewing a Canadian...
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....
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...
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...

Not today, no not today. Or any day for that matter. First of all a light IPA sounds like an oxymoron. Where is the IPA bite, the snap, the crisp? Or as my old buddy Rick would say, the Zing. My recipe for how to make an Any Day at home; one cup traditional IPA with...
A bit of a theme going on here between the beer name and the brewery, so it seemed like a good brew to have while watching the Leafs. Unfortunately, the game was postponed and perhaps this tasting should have been as well. Nice light golden pour, minimal head even...
For years Steam Whistle had the motto “Do One Thing and Do It Really Really Well”. I will ignore the redundant adjective and focus on their message, which was that they brew one beer, their premium pilsner, and they do that very well. I would tend to agree with that...
