Re: Nova Scotia
I was in Halifax this past weekend. Unfiltered is making some excellent IPAs. I loved the Double Orange Ale. The departure lounge at Halifax airport now has a liquor store selling only Nova Scotia products. A small but good selection of beer. Some Boxing Rock, Spindrift, Nine Locks. It is after secu...

Mill Street Brewpub--- St John's Newfoundland
Mill Street has posted a Head Brewer position in St John's Newfoundland.
First the Bier Markt, now Mill Street. Interesting.

Re: Prague and Plzen
I loved the fresh Pilsner Urquell in the tunnels at the end of the tour. Before you leave, ask for a refill. Worked for me :D The beer at Na Splice restaurant across the courtyard is pretty damn good as well. U Medvidku in Prague has Tankova Budvar. It was the only place in Prague with it. When you ...

I can see it coming. All the Wynne government is going to do is introduce a fee/tax/monopoly service charge to extract more money from the Beer Store. Nothing else is going to change. The big brewer's monopoly is going to be legitimized (hey, we are paying for it!). Face it. Except for a few of us b...

New Albion Ale clone (one gallon)
The guys at Basic Brewing are doing a one gallon New Albion Ale clone and are asking others to try their recipie and compare the results. Very simple brew: two pounds of two row, 3 additions of 4 grams of Cascade hops, and ferment with US-05. It was a fun brew. I added a little yeast nutrient and it...
