Don't mess with brewery workers and their beer: http://bit.ly/aEXprt
Best. Strike. Ever.
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 …

Working with #masters streaming on my iphone. Watching the Amen Corner feed. Thanks TSN.
Free Beer! (if you turn 19)
I just came across this at Greg Clow's blog, Beer Beats and Bites. Apparently the Granite brewery, in celebration of their 19th anniversary in Toronto, is offering a present for anybody else turning 19 this year. Come in …
Ptown crawl part IV - The Olde Stone Brewery
Last stop, though I really should have already left. The Olde Stone is a brew pub right in downtown ptown. With a brewery in the basement, this place serves both their own brews on draught, as well as five Ontario guest …
Anniversary Pilsner - Old Credit Brewing Co. Ltd.
So this past week I found myself in Port Credit, meeting a new potential client, and also connecting with an old friend before the work-meeting. The work stuff went well, and the coffee with a friend (Rob), was also …
Ptown crawl part III - St Veronus Cafe and Tap Room
On the advice of Marty at Publican, I left The Only and wandered along Hunter St. to St. Veronus which is a classic Belgian style bar. Elegant and clean layout, with a few different rooms, including a small bar room …
Ptown crawl part II - The Only Cafe
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 …
Ptown crawl part I - Publican House Brewery
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 …
Ptown crawl - intro
So, this past Saturday, my mum needed a lift to Peterborough. I, being a good son, happily obliged. Certainly, because I love my mother, but also because a trip to ptown means a stop at Publican House, and also, …

@NotesOnABeermat and I did a four stop crawl of Peterborough to drown my recent Leeds woes. It didn't work.
Some Technical Notes
I don't know if any of you readers manage any websites, and if so, if you use Google Analytics, but let me tell you: It's scary. Between the info I get from GA and the reports Wordpress generates, if you've posted a …
Beer and Cheese at Castro's
So, if you haven't been following along, not only am I a quick witted beer blogger, but also the host of monthly beer tasting at Castro's Lounge, in the Beach. These events are not so much structured flights where we all …
New Bottled Beers at Volo
Just saw on Facebook, Volo has got some new bottles in, and coming in. Bottles from The Meantime Brewery in London England are now in and being served, and bottles from The Garrison Brewing Co. in Halifax Nova Scotia …
Brooklyn Lager - The Brooklyn Brewery
The Brooklyn Brewery is trying to re-introduce our New York neighbours to beers the way they were pre-prohibition. Brooklyn Lager is their flag-ship brand, and is a wonderful amber lager (think Creemore, Big Wheel, etc). …
Russian Gun Imperial Stout - Grand River Brewing
So this little wonder is gaining quite a bit of notoriety in the circles I drink in. I must admit, that I have thrice not had it when the opportunity presented itself to me, so when I was in the Queen's Quay LCBO last …
Monday Maple Madness @ the Stinking Rose, Campbellford!
