bradm Posted November 20, 2009 Report Share Posted November 20, 2009 (edited) Heritage Brewing in Ottawa is having a Holiday Beer Bash on Tuesday, November 24, from 5pm - 7pm, featuring their new Blackcurrent Rye Beer, and music from Mike Sasso.Come out and taste some beer at Heritage Brewing on 866 Campbell Ave just off of Carling Ave in the West End of Ottawa by the Canadian Tire. Tom McMahon and I will be playing some tunes. It's a good time and they make truly excellent beer in many varieties. It's the biggest keg party you will ever go to*. After Work on Tuesday November 24th 5pm-7pm. There will be food there too.Aloha,Brad* I suspect that Mike is unfamiliar with the celebrations of Canada Day that took place at THAT PLACE.

StaggerLee Posted November 20, 2009 Report Share Posted November 20, 2009 I'm having one of these right now. Great beer. Definitely exceeded my expectations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradm Posted December 15, 2009 Report Share Posted December 15, 2009 I found individual bottles of Dieu Du Ciel's "Corne du diable" (The Devil's Horns) at the LCBO (Carling & Woodroffe) the other day, and really like it. It's their take on an American IPA, and it's wonderful, though on the rich side, with just enough hops and other flavours to make everything balance nicely.

AD Posted December 16, 2009 Report Share Posted December 16, 2009 I've been loving Campbellford, Ontario's Church Key Brewery's West Coast Pale Ale. Its on tap at the Manx and Moon Room on Preston. DELICIOUS STUFF.. Church Key Brewery Stay away from the Holy Smoke Scotch Ale though - tastes overpoweringly like smoke. Liquid smoke. Gross.On another note, I had the Oaked Arrogant Bastard Ale over the past week or so. It's strong (7.2%) and dark, and I didn't like it at all - until the 5th sip or so and then it becomes very good. Not sure if I'd buy it again, just because of the first few sips.I am also loving the Rogue Hazelnut Brown Nectar. It's (obviously) a Hazelnut beer, and I made a beer float last night that was delicious.I've had a lot of Rogue beers and they have mostly been excellent.

StaggerLee Posted December 16, 2009 Report Share Posted December 16, 2009 Rogue does a smoked beer too, but it is also way too smoky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SolarGarlic Posted December 17, 2009 Report Share Posted December 17, 2009 AD:Have you tried making a float with Rogue's Chocolate Stout?? That beer is MADE for that sort of action. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AD Posted December 17, 2009 Report Share Posted December 17, 2009 That's been on my list for a while but haven't been able to pick any up yet. Looking forward to it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradm Posted December 31, 2009 Report Share Posted December 31, 2009 (edited) I bought another six-pack of this today, and just realized that they print little messages in their bottle caps (is it Magic Hat that does that, too?). So far, I've had Change is inevitable...except from vending machines. Do not have a battle of wits with an unarmed opponent. Free beer tomorrow. [three times] God. Family. Beer.

PassedOutGuy Posted December 31, 2009 Report Share Posted December 31, 2009 Is that an Ontario brew Mr M? Is it hoppy like an American IPA? Curious to see if my LCBO could special order it in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradm Posted December 31, 2009 Report Share Posted December 31, 2009 Is that an Ontario brew Mr M? Is it hoppy like an American IPA? Curious to see if my LCBO could special order it in.It's made in Barrie, ON, and is hoppy like some of the American IPAs (that said, it's not super-crazy-hoppy).It's part of the normal LCBO catalogue:http://www.lcbo.com/lcbo-ear/lcbo/product/details.do?language=EN&itemNumber=132670Aloha,Brad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SolarGarlic Posted January 2, 2010 Report Share Posted January 2, 2010 Amazing beer. Previously, the Lagunitas "A Little Sumpin’ Sumpin’ Ale" was my North American beer choice of the year (2009). This one is just a smidge "better" but that's my opinion. The corriander bomb is really addictive in this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Esau. Posted January 7, 2010 Report Share Posted January 7, 2010 Young's double chocolate stout is one I've been enjoying over then last few months. Although, I couldn't drink more then three at any given time. I love it as my starter beer on poker night.Definitely a good one. Anyone else into this brew?

ollie Posted January 8, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2010 I bought this at the LCBO on Richmond Road... Punk IPA by BrewDog Brewery in Scotland. This is an incredible beer! From the first smell I was sold and from the first taste smitten. This unassumingly light coloured beer packs an awesome hop punch, starting with floral notes that turn into a burnt bitter taste at the end. There is quite the flavour profile in between. This is a classic American style IPA brewed in Scotland -- it's quite disarming. I am so pleased with this discovery! The 6% ABV is a nice bonus.

AD Posted March 24, 2010 Report Share Posted March 24, 2010 May I present to you gentlemen something of exquisite beauty and wonderful taste. It's the awesome new 4-pack! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StaggerLee Posted March 25, 2010 Report Share Posted March 25, 2010 I had a bottle of Dieu du Ciel's Charbonnière last night. I think I need to drink another to figure out how I feel about it overall, but it was definitely the best smoked beer I've had. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Esau. Posted April 11, 2010 Report Share Posted April 11, 2010 This is an extremely strong beer, it should be enjoyed in small servings and with an air of aristocratic nonchalance. In exactly the same manner that you would enjoy a fine whisky, a Frank Zappa album or a visit from a friendly yet anxious ghost.ABV: 32% OG: 1092 Malts: Marris Otter, Dark Crystal, Caramalt, Chocolate Malt, Roast Barley Hops: Galena, Bramling Cross Twist: Frozen by Penguins for 3 weeks at an ice cream factory resulting in the worldÕs strongest ever beer (ever) Available in * 330ml bottles http://www.brewdog.com/tactical_nuclear_penguin.php They also have a 41% IPA called Sink The Bismark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davey Boy 2.0 Posted July 28, 2010 Report Share Posted July 28, 2010 'Brewers have invented a beer laced with cheese to help amorous boozers perform after a night on the tiles. The brew promises a 'positive and healthy' response even after a skinful. "My wife can't have any objection to me spending the night down the pub now," said one drinker in Bregenz. One risk which could break the mood though might be the drinker's breath after a night of cheesy booze. So drinkers be weary to take a toothbrush out to the pub with them' - Metro.
