I've got some Great Lakes Pumpkin Ale, and more Sinha and also some Fuller's London Porter. 1/3rd each may be right for a regular Pumpkin Stout, for an Imperial Pumpkin Stout, probably I'll just use the Sinha, or maybe the new Southern Tier Choklat Imperial Stout just in at LCBO. However that has chocolate in it and I am not sure I want that; we'll see.

Granville pumpkin... it 'tis the season.

Not to my liking, so inspired by Gary, I dumped a Brooklyn Chocolate Stout in it... what a waste of a good stout.

Too bad those beers aren't from Ontario though.

At an embarrassing Senators loss to the Make me Laughs, I'm drinking a homebrewed blue and white douchebag ale as a toast to the Laughs and their fans!!! Mmmmmm, the sweet taste of defeat!

Half Pints Humulus Ludicrous. This year's version is definitely the best yet. Not sure I have tasted a better DIPA in Canada.

Of course. It is a great thing. I was merely saying that it would be cool if something like Peche was brewed here as well!!

Last night at Chancey Smith's:

Grand River Kolsch - decent brew. IMHO the fruity aromas and sharp, tingly spiciness are the only traits that distinguish this beer from the Hannenberg Pilsner.

Southern Tier 2XIPA - very similar to the regular IPA in flavour and aroma, but the hop bitterness is more intense. Paired really well with my jambalaya.

Muskoka Harvest Ale on tap - doesn't taste anything like the bottled version. The draught (or at least this particular keg) is closer to an altbier than an APA or ESB, and the flavour resembles Beau's Festivale.
