Cabin Fever 3 was the first kick at the can at making a DIPA. I was told that they took many peoples feed back from Cabin Fever, tweaked the recipe and Twice as Mad Tom is in the tanks right now.

Unibroue Brewmasters Dinner @ The Griffin Gastropub - Apr 29

The Griffin Gastropub brewmasters dinner with Unibroue Sunday April 29th.

4 courses for $50.

That is all the information available so far.
You can get your tickets at the pub.

Don't know if any bartowel folk are from Muskoka, thought I would put up a post regardless!

Australian radio station Triple J releases some pretty incredible in studio performances, including a video series called "Like A Version." Sarah Blasko did an incredible version of Hey Ya! by OutKast. Almost better than the original. That voice... damn. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mf33...

This isn't a new beer. It is Muskokas version of a thank you card.
It will be bottles of Mad Tom or Cream Ale with the "thank you" label.

someone went by Grand Electric. They're claiming its closed, with a board on the window and paper on the door, name removed. That "someone" was probably my wife, who posted about it on Twitter. She didn't claim it was closed, just reported on the boarded up windows and asked if anyone kne...
