Nobel - Christoffel

April 14, 2010 · 2 comments

Marston's Pedigree

April 13, 2010

Ahhhhh, English bitter. How do I love thee? For me, drinking English beers normally comes in waves, but this was a rogue one. Still, I have never had Marstons, and the bottle beckoned me when I opened the fridge. …

Best. Strike. Ever.

April 9, 2010

Today in Copenhagen, 250 workers walked off the job at the Carlsberg Brewery, not over pay issues, not because they lost their dental plan, not even for health and safety issues. No, they walked off the job, because the …

So my second stop took me to The Only Cafe. Which is strange to me, as The Only is on Danforth in Toronto, right? Well, about 20 years ago, the dude who opened the Danforth location, Jerome, sold it, moved to …

After dropping my mum at her desired location in Peterborough, I headed to Charlotte St and the pleasant Publican House Brewery. Bought myself a growler of Square Nail Pale Ale and had a great chat about their intentions …
