That data is antiquated: Blue hasn't been the best seller in Canada for some time. A couple of years ago, Bud took over as numero uno up here, and that was only recently eclipsed by...(drum roll, please)...

R.I.P. Don Younger
I know there are at least a few on this board who have experienced the hospitality of the Horse Brass Pub in Portland, Oregon. Its owner, Don Younger, one of the earliest and truly great champions of good beer in the Pacific Northwest, and a hell of a nice guy besides, died early this morning. He wi...

The average consumer is never going to know or hear about them. 'Tain't necessarily the case, Ralphus.The GABF awards are now used widely in marketing in the U.S., but breweries large and small alike. It's probably only a matter of time until the same thing happens here. (BTW, with over 70 brewerie...

I am no great fan of the big breweries or their beers, however... 1) To say that something like Canadian or Blue is not true beer because it contains adjuncts or is high-gravity brewed or is simply not to a true beer drinker's taste is absurd. They are obviously beers and technically very good ones,...

Duckdown, I wouldn't suggest intentionally aging any of the five special release beers, ie: keeping them for a year or more. That said, however, in cellar conditions none but the Blanche will have a problem lasting well up to 6 months and probably well beyond. (Being the lightest and most fragile, t...
