Re: Ontario brewed Tripels...
According to an email l got from Henderson Brewing, March 3 is International Tripel Day. Who knew? (not me). They are promoting their Rube Goldbeer. I've had it, considered it good, but in no way consider myself a judge of the style (or of many other styles for that matter. :wink: ) To those of you ...

Re: beer (alcohol) and health
NA beer. A variety of opinions on this, as I would have expected. For me right now, I am not much interested. To a certain degree, it's a mental thing, as in, I'm either going to have a beer, or I'm not. So I suppose then, that what am I really saying is that NA beer isn't really beer, it's somethin...

beer (alcohol) and health
We have a good discussion on gout in another thread (thanks Matt for that), but I thought I would start a more general discussion. Consciously, or sub-consciously, I sometimes contemplate how much alcohol I consume, usually convincing myself that all is good. I'm not sure when I first heard of "...

Re: Prenup Pub - College St.
