Kinda getting tired of Creme Brulee...

You know the LCBO is really dropping the ball when St. Ambroise is the star of the release.

I've ordered both a copy of this and a copy of The Craft of Stone Brewing Company. Can't wait for either. Well I hope you have better luck than I do. I order Craft Beers of the Pacific Northwest and Microbrewed Adventures, both ended up in the undeliverable office. The contents were missing from th...

New Belgium Kick sour pumpkin ale Good God, that sounds awesome. It really is a great, easy drinking sour....even the missus liked it!!! It almost reminds me of a cider, the way the fruit & acid play around. Managed to snag the last bottle in the local liquor store tonight too. Finished off the...

Maybe Muskoka should have changed their name to Brewers of Oz.

Perhaps it's just a matter of them changing their brand to be in line with the American style of brewing. It strikes me as disingenuous. Are they trying to craft good beer? It just appears to be a company recognizing an under served market and trying to cater to it. And because of the lack of compet...

I caught a few minutes of CityLine while I was waiting for my lunch order today, and noticed they were cooking with a bottle of Super Collider! It could be really good for such beers to become trendy. Good for them. Part of the rapid FM acceptance is branding. Starting with product appearance. I'm ...

It'd be easier to list everything they've done well.
