It was good - it's different from the juicy IPA styles you get at Rouge, Badlands but this one was a typical crisp pale ale with low bitterness and clean on the palate - nice and refreshing. Had the ESB a while back and it was good as well - similar to the Wellington ESB (I think that's who make one of the regular ones at the LCBO).

They are on the north side of main street in Wellington - also have a patio with food.

Today's pickups - 2 tubs of ice cream from Knockout Ice Cream, Blood Brothers, and Bellwoods (ordered a 3-pack of their Imperial IPA and they threw in an extra one). Thought about cruising down in the stang but re-considered that there may be too many idiots on the road in T.O. traffic so left it at home....I was right.

Took a drive out to Willibald Farm Distillery and Brewery just outside of Ayr this afafternoon for some lunch and so the boss could get her hands on some limited release Gingerbread Gin, the almost empty glass was a taster. Also had the Export lager which was great and a Spiced Pumpkin Milkshake DIPA. Was not expecting it to be good but I was very surprised and happy with the flavour. Smooth and hoppy like a DIPA with a pumpkin pie kick. Delicious.

Also picked up their latest releases, an Oktoberfest lager and a new ipa.

Just finished a 16 day work trip to Newfoundland, because of having to isolate outside of work, it was a dry 2+ weeks, so I didn't get a chance to sample some Quidi Vidi local favourites. It's a tough regime to follow the rules but necessary to stay within the law. Once everyone knew I was from Ontario, they gave me extra social distance, felt like I had the Bubonic Plague.
Anyways on the return flight through Halifax, grabbed a Codfather sandwich at the Firkin and Flyer restaurant in the Terminal, along with the Breton Brewing IPA, I could have spent the afternoon with a couple of these there.
Picked up some local craft beers at the kiosk, bought the Frig Off only because of the name but it is a decent beer. Have tried the Tag!You're It IPA, excellent beer. Probably will be through the others by Saturday.

The coffee Porter from Haliburton Highlands Brewery was also quite delicious. Nice sweet coffee flavour but not overpowering.

hoping to score one of these tomorrow in my Christmas shopping travels.

"Best" of the four is probably the Gnarly Head for a full body red.

As for spiced apple type beer - isn't that called cider?

[RedSN]

Co-worker gave me one of these...

Paper Moon Brut IPA is 7% ABV, 0 IBU, as effervescent as sparkling wine, bone-dry, with a pale near-clear appearance and strong New World hop aroma.

The “sparkling wine” effervescence was interesting. Was lite like a session IPA, but with double the alcohol.

[92redragtop]

That's an interesting combo - sounds tart-ish?

[RedSN]

My co-worker doesn’t like IPAs, but he liked this one.

[83 5.0]

I am old, I remember the movie Paper Moon. The term “sparkling wine” effervescence, makes me think second about trying it. LOL ;)

Dragonfruit? How did that taste?

[IanGTCS]

I just don't understand how you guys enjoy all those IPAs, way too hoppy for me. But then I'm perfectly content having a generic major market beer.

I've decided to stop buying any alcohol until I've made it through a bunch of my liquor cabinet. Last night was Dracula's flower, combination of fruit flavours and grain alcohol from a distillery near Elora. Pretty tasty. Tonight might be a scotch night, currently enjoying a bottle I picked up in Glasgow last fall.

Edit: looked it up, silver fox distillery near Arthur. Dracula's flower is a combination of lavender and blood orange.

It was actually pretty good but I preferred the regular Dankster as it was less juice and more beer (only got one of the fruited version for myself just to try).

Most of these are not the hoppy, bitter IPAs that you get from the large brewers - plus the doubles and triples have more of the juicy/citrus taste.

A bit of a laggard in posting some of my recent trials.

Was out to Alberta, always drop by Big Tee's BBQ, ribs never disappoint, and they have Village Brewery on tap for the Blacksmith Ale.

I get it. I was the same way before too. Never really a fan of the hoppy IPAs until my sister brought me some Heady Topper from the Alchemist. As Richard said: the cloudier more citrusy IPAs aren’t really all that hoppy.

But that’s the way I was with beer before I didn’t even really like beer. It took me the right beer to actually enjoy it. Never liked Canadian, Blue, Coors, or Bud (still don’t). But when I tried Waterloo Dark on a brewery tour I was “wow! That I like!”.

I keep hearing people rave about stouts. I have yet to find my Rosetta Stone stout.

I've had a couple of the more citrusy ones and while I liked them a little more, or at least disliked them less, still not really my thing. I still enjoy trying new beers and anytime I'm in the LCBO I pick up at least 1 can I've never tried, I just avoid anything with IPA on the can.

It's been a weird holiday, only had 2 beers on Christmas day with my wife and daughter, and without the usual 2 or 3 other family goings on, it has been a dry season for me. Usually some family members bring some craft beers to try, oh well next year.
My daughter did buy me 2 beer books for Christmas (she wasn't going to step inside an LCBO to pick me up some beer).
The Brewing Revolution is from Frank Appleton in BC who is considered as a pioneer in the craft beer business with BrewPubs etc. he set up in the 80's and 90's. A bit dry in the writing but a good story.
The Atlas of Beer is from the folks at National Geographic, it is big, has great photos, and background in regions around the world for the beer they produce, and the methods. Supposedly in the 15th/16th centuries it was safer to drink beer than the unsanitary water from wells.

It was very nice. Very light, easy drinking. It was funny, our favourite sommelier, John Szabo, almost got a perfect score on it. He correctly determined: Variety, Country, Region, Appellation, and Price. He only missed a point on Vintage by one year. He described it as new world, cold region, limestone....

Got to blow the dust off the vert today, and headed to the Beer Store, and came upon this selection of IPA's from the Refined Fool brewery in Sarnia.
Have tried the Van full of Weirdos, and the Short Pier Long Walk, very nice for a beautiful day outside. Would buy again

Been a long time since I had tequila. Forgot what it tasted like.

Did a shot of each.

They both go down smooth. Taste good. The burning in my throat wasn’t strong. Blanco is a lighter taste. I like both.

Their website has a lot of recipes for mixology. My wife likes the idea of hot chocolate and tequila.

AN IPA is a series that acts as a creative outlet for all things IPA from Oss. An APA is a sister series of sorts, with certain hoppy similarities in a lighter vehicle.
This batch of An APA is hopped with Citra and Sterling. Tastes like pineapple, confit lemon and pine. ABV: 5.6%

GHOST ORCHID. What do you do when something you love is in scarce supply? When demand outweighs supply? Faced with the reality that we will never be able to acquire all the Nelson Sauvin of our dreams, we decided to reserve the lions share of our Nelson allotment for this magnificent IPA: Ghost Orchid. Named after the highly coveted but endangered flower, this ode to one of the most unique hop varieties is about relishing a rarity. 6.3% Alc.

GREENBELLY LORAL emerges as our first Triple IPA, and with it, a reminder that prodigious hop additions just taste good. This batch is a special Loral version made with regular Loral hops and lupulin powder. It's supercharged! Hugely aromatic, with notes of clementine, vanilla, soft jasmine, low bitterness, and a pillowy soft body, this beer translates a great magnitude of hops into an impressively balanced, hazy orb of wonder. 10% Alc/Vol.

[92redragtop]

^^Did you make a trip over to Bellwoods? Greenbelly Loral is tasty.

I have a couple orders to pickup at the Hafis Rd location.

[83 5.0]

Not too bad, still only about 30-40 % capacity, only issue is how many times Air Canada changes your flights, they seem to consolidate them about 1-2 weeks before departure, either 8 am or 4- 5pm. I always book the rear of the plane, most people seem to want to sit more to the front to get off first. My flying is down about 1/2 of what I normally would have done, but i can see this changing as things ramp up towards the fall.
Lots of craft brewers out here, but because there are alot of small Liquor Marts,(think Circle K size store) selection is not like the LCBO or The beer store.

If you’re still out there and in Calgary, try Cabin brewing. Apparently they are fantastic

Review?

Review?

They both equally get me drunk with 1 glass, lol. Honestly Blanco and Reposado both taste great. Blanco will have a lighter taste.

Friday after work, dropped by RR for a double and a triple.

Sitting in the back yard, having a Sparklepuff, ….can smell 3 different distinct BBQs in the neighborhood.

The other half of the Bellwoods-Third Moon IIIPA collab….awesome but will render me inoperable for the rest of the evening.

AM and FM beers look interesting!

[92redragtop]

That's ambitious - those two collab triples back to back. I felt it after each one....but both good (I did prefer the Bellwoods version a little over the TM). I'll try to do the TM-Beerlab DIPAs back to back on a day when I'm spending a lot of time on the deck chairs.

[CDNfyrfytr]

Beerlab! used fresh hops and Third Moon used hop pellets. BL was more bitter and TM sweeter and smoother. Both were equally delicious!

Trip to Parsons today yielded a 2-4 of Noice (now in cans) and a 6-pack of Westy.

Sam is always a joy to chat with. Chris I’ve never met.

Very nice Mike!
Did you have to pre book online for Kingston pen? Pre pandemic we weren’t able to get in ( without booking) so we just went to the Warden house across the street.

[MUSTANGWOP]

We did the tour a few years ago (highly recommend it) and we booked online.

[CDNfyrfytr]

We booked online. There were still times available when we arrived but it was sold out by the time we left. Very interesting and historic place.

Another work week in Grande Prairie Alberta, kind of odd going to restaurants, stores with no one wearing masks. Health facilities etc. I am seeing Still require them.
Anyways checked out a small local brewer Grain Bin Brewing Company, The Alright Already Neipa is excellent.
Will try the Rye Lager probably later.

Edson is my last stop before taking the red eye home Friday from Edmonton.
Had this IPA from Apex Predator Brewing, who are Albertas first rural craft brewer. A really decent IPA.

Creemore premium lager. Not my favourite but it was in the fridge. I'm going to assume my wife bought it.

Mint plant in the garden is getting out of hand. Cut it down a little, added some simple sirup, Havana Club, ice, and Limonata.
