As the weather warms up, every beer blogger and their cousins are compiling lists of their summer beers for 2013. This isn’t inherently a bad thing, and often might lead you to a new beer you had not tried before. It could also leave you crying into your lager, as you don’t have access to […]

Dunkel Buck – Beau’s All Natural Brewing Co.
Okay, I know, I kind of go on and on about Beau’s. But seriously, this is one of the coolest friendliest breweries out there. And they just keep on making awesome beers. Many of you will be familiar with their “Wild Oats” series, which are special batches of beers they make seasonally. Vrienden, Bog Father, […]
Oranje Weisse – Amsterdam Brewery
Okay, we all know I’ve got a huge crush on Amsterdam. Disclaimer stated. That being said, I’ve got a bit of a “thing” about this beer. Ummmm, it’s not a weisse. That’s a German style of beer, and the sausage-munchers are a tad bit obsessed about the ingredients, and specifically what is *not* in there. […]
Announcing Oranje Weisse – Amsterdam Brewing Co.
Just in from the crew at Amsterdam, the official skinny on the new summer beer, Oranje Weisse. I’ve had it, and (strange naming aside), think it’s quite nice. I’ve got a bottle in the cooler waiting for review, maybe later today or tomorrow. Amsterdam Brewing Company Summer Seasonal – Oranje Weisse Premium White Beer Available […]
Summer Weisse – Muskoka Cottage Brewery
Despite what homebrew fanatics might try to tell you, brewing beer is a tricky business. Not just because it requires some fairly specialised equipment, but also because there is a lot of knowledge, training and less tangible skill that is required of the brewer. For instance, lots of people make English style ales, so why […]
Hefe-Weissbier Muskoka Cottage Brewery
I can remember being 19 (so, in 1999) and seeing beer from a company called Muskoka, in the LCBO in Port Carling while up at the family cottage. If I recall, I mainly got the Cream Ale from them. I have no recollection, and wasn’t equiped at the time, to gauge it’s qaulity on a […]
Weisse Beer Pairing with Michael Hancock at The Monk’s Table – Toronto Beer Week
My last day of Toronto Beer Week was looking promising: a dinner with Michael Hancock, Black Oak beers at Volo, possibly Guinness and oysters at Ceili, and who knows what else? Due to poor time-management on my part, I was totally late getting to the Monk’s Table. No worries though, Michael was still talking through […]
Weizen Imperiale Grand Cuvee 2009 – Les Trois Mousquetaires
This is another one of those “If you’ve never heard of them, it’s probably because you’re from Ontario” beers. Les Trois Mousquetaires is an insanely cool micro in Quebec. If you find yourself in Quebec, find yourself somewhere pouring their beers, and plan on staying a good long while. This particular specimen was procured by […]
