Too Much News

Looks like a nice evening in.

Wow, stop blogging for a few weeks to actually do something to earn income, and you find yourself with a not small backlog of news, samples, and events. Let’s get to this: I Call It Uncanny A few beers are now available in cans, and I couldn’t be happier. Why? Cans are perfectly air-tight and […]

St Ambroise Erable — McAuslan Brewery

I don’t even know if I can adequately describe in words how much I love maple syrup. When I buy a new bottle (always Ontario), I open it on the spot and take a swig.  Ben does this now, too.  Be aware, if you are pouring syrup out of a bottle that I bought, it’s […]

St Ambroise Pale Ale — McAuslan Brewery

I was seriously shocked when I checked and discovered I had never actually reviewed McAuslan’s St Ambroise Pale Ale.  I mean, I drink it frequently, both in bottles and on draught.  I often sing it’s praises to others, and feel that it is one of the best English-style pale ales available in Ontario, if not […]

St Ambroise Apricot Wheat Ale — McAuslan Brewing Inc.

St Ambroise Apricot Wheat Ale — McAuslan Brewing Inc

Continuing along with my “stuff in beer” reviews, is St Ambroise Apricot Wheat Ale. I’ve said it in past posts, but I’ll say it again: I don’t go in for this seasonal beer stuff.  True, I think there are beers for specific occasions or times, but I would never consider turning down a delicious stout […]

St Ambroise Framboise — McAuslan Brewing Inc.

St Ambroise Framboise — McAuslan Brewing Inc.

Another day another beer review.  If you recall from my review of Great Lakes Green Tea Ale, I’m focusing for a while on those “summer-time” brews (though I prefer to not pigeon-hole beers seasonally, most people do) that have things added to them, from fruit juices, to spices, and beyond.  Next up is this bottle […]

St Ambroise Special Reserve Russian Imperial Stout – McAuslan Brewing Inc.

St Ambroise Russian Imperial Stout - McAuslan Brewing Inc

There is no secret about my love for McAuslan Brewing from Montreal.  I kind of go on and on about them….. Their Pale Ale makes me quiver, etc.  So, when I was sent a bunch of their brews, I was a little more than excited.  That it included their new barrel-aged Russian Imperial Stout nearly […]

St Ambroise India Pale Ale – McAuslan Brewing Inc

St Ambroise India Pale Ale

McAuslan is another one of those breweries, that if you read here enough, you know I’ve got a bit of a thing for.  A big bit of a thing.  Their Pale Ale is just amazing, their Oatmeal stout is one of my favourite stouts, their Citrouille is probably my favourite pumpkin beer; the list goes […]

St Ambroise Citrouille – McAuslan Brewing Inc

St Ambroise Citrouille - McAuslan Brewing Inc

It’s pumpkin weekend at my place, at least in terms of beer.  Friday Fred and I drank pumpkin beer on the Edge, yesterday I reviewed Shipyard’s ferocious Imperial Pumpkin Ale, “Smashed Pumpkin”.  Today, I’m going to do a review of one of the pumpkin beers that helped convert me to a fan of pumpkin beers, […]

Winter Warmers – LCBO Winter Release

So I posted a few days ago, and mentioned the new beers in the LC, but thought I’d give you the full break-down of what they’ve got to keep you warm through our long nights.  Can I just take a moment and say how awesome this release looks?  They just keep on upping their game, […]

The Griffin Gastropub – Bracebridge

Growing up, we used to have a cottage about half an hour from Bracebridge.  While we would pop into Bala or Port Carling for quick shops, when we needed to buy big items or lots of anything, it seemed like we always went to Bracebridge.  While I was aware there was a quaint area in […]
