I saw this Guinness Extra Stout a few months ago and wanted to try it but they were only selling it in six packs. Unless I am fridge stocking I only buy singles because truth be told, if it’s the dregs I don’t have enough friends that I don’t like enough to foist 5...
The big lake breeze transforms a warm day into a cool evening. Perfect for a faux fire and a ship shape stout. Time to sip on a ship to shore Shipman’s for sure. Decew Falls* brewers remind me of Gateway City, both are brewers in love with their local history. Every...
Out and about for dinner with the missus. Kibitzing with the movers and shakers, saluting the captains of industry at the local yacht club. But the only Thurston* in the house was my powerful thirstin’ for a frosty brewski. I was dry docked so to speak. Appetizer...

Lots of breweries are running restaurants that serve beer. But there are still a few chill brewers out there that are running bars that serve food, and Mascot in the entertainment district of downtown TO is doing just that.* A step or two down into a room with no view...
On a family ski trip to Ellicottville NY and we passed by a restaurant named FTR. The misses thought it looked quaint, and would be good for us and the grandkids, so I said I would check it out online. “It has a kid’s menu” I told her, and that was all she wrote, we...
“True North” out of Vaughn. You know what’s North of Vaughn? How about almost all of Canada, most of Europe, Russia, Scandinavia, Alaska, Greenland, Mongolia, and Kazakhstan to name a few places. If you are from Toronto and have never been to Algonquin Park (which is...
