OftenWrong Posted December 13, 2019 Report Posted December 13, 2019 Just now, bcsapper said: I hope they export it! Well let me give you even better news then. Yes they are! I have already quaffed some at a local pub. I kid you not, that is how I came to find out! Went in there and asked what do they have on tap. She gives off a list of the usual nouveau-craft experiments, progressive triple pine, sour grapefruit radler... I have that kind of tired, but patient and determined look on my face... I will endure this. Then she says "Tetley's, ..." I was puzzled. Surely you don't mean Tetleys? Yes, Tetley's ale. My whole demeanor changed. Alright, please bring some. After she went off I said to my wife, "It's probably not the real thing. Some kind of faux Tetley's, I'm sure. Probably made by Molson." And we all know what Molson did, to Rickard's Red. So I sat there feeling kinda glum. Did they ruin Tetley's too? But then it came, and I could tell right away by the colour! That same creamy white head, thick as a Guiness. Yep, the same. How do they do that, these geniuses of malt, hops and barley. Quote

SpankyMcFarland Posted December 20, 2019 Report Posted December 20, 2019 There may well be decent Canadian wheat beers and saisons out there but very few of them make their way to Newfoundland. Quote
Guest Posted February 17, 2020 Report Posted February 17, 2020 Pleasant enough. Not bad at all. Quote
Iceni warrior Posted February 17, 2020 Report Posted February 17, 2020 Woodfords wherry, brewed by an independant Brewery in Woodbaston Norfolk (just outside Norwich). Multiple award winning ale. Quote A Supreme Champion Beer of Britain! Mighty fresh and zesty, our award-winning, rich amber ale enjoys floods of flavours, as sweet malts clash with grapefruit hops and big floral aromas in a sensory strike. Set sail on an epic taste adventure. Easily my favourite beer and available in kit form for you to make your own. https://www.woodfordes.com/shopold/brewkits/ Quote
SkyHigh Posted February 18, 2020 Report Posted February 18, 2020 I like this thread, and some of the names Mill house, driftwood etc.. Bring back memories of my travels. Always found it weird how different each provinces "beer store" inventory was, and not even just in local products but imports as well Im in Montreal now, great microbrewery culture, one is Dieu du ciel that's available in stores. Personally im a lightweight when it comes to beer(though as my name suggests I have other vices), i like stuff like Steam whistle, clean, simple pilsner, four ingredients, hops, barley, yeast, water Quote

Unfortunately, here in Kim City the liquor stores don't always have the greatest selection.-k I feel your pain. NB has a generally poor selection. Pump house isn't bad. Distillerie Fils du roy makes amazing gin, ive never tried the beer but i know they brew some, have you tried that? Can't get it here Quote
Guest Posted May 22, 2020 Report Posted May 22, 2020 I took a risk, masked up, and visited the local liquor store. This stuff's not bad. Quote
Guest Posted January 2, 2021 Report Posted January 2, 2021 First alcohol since my last post. Not bad at all... Quote
OftenWrong Posted March 13, 2021 Report Posted March 13, 2021 No thanks. When I want orange juice, I just go and buy it. These brews get even worse when they blend in those damnable American hops, I tell you. But maybe you like that sort of thing. It figures... Quote

One would hate to be a snob but one is not convinced that any decent ale has ever been served in an aluminium receptacle. One would also like to draw attention to the second ''i'' in the word aluminium. With that said, one must depart to feed one's peacocks. Edited March 13, 2021 by Iceni warrior Quote
Guest Posted March 13, 2021 Report Posted March 13, 2021 Don't knock it until you've tried it boys. Well, you can if you want. Quote
Guest Posted March 14, 2021 Report Posted March 14, 2021 This stuff's pretty good too. Notwithstanding the Al. Quote
ChebelKanto Posted August 24, 2021 Report Posted August 24, 2021 (edited) Bonjour à tous, En tant que Belge, je confirme sans prétention que vos bières ne sont pas très bonnes. J'ai expérimenté quelques marques et j'ai découvert que les petites brasseries fabriquaient de meilleures bières. Sinon, pouvez-vous me dire s'il existe des sites ou des magasins qui vendent exclusivement de la bière belge ? Edited August 24, 2021 by ChebelKanto Quote
ChebelKanto Posted September 8, 2021 Report Posted September 8, 2021 Hello to all, As a Belgian, I can confirm without pretension that your beers are not very good. I have experimented with a few brands and found that small breweries make better beers. If not, can you tell me if there are sites or stores that sell exclusively Belgian beer? Quote

Do you think different regions have different tastes? Should we all have a taste for Belgian beers because you like them best? I have never heard of any store in Canada selling only Canadian beer, never mind only Belgian beer. Quote
OftenWrong Posted September 5, 2023 Report Posted September 5, 2023 All the attention and noise over Bud Light made me "curious". So I decided, why not, I like trying new things. And to my surprise, find out I like it. Has a different finish than Coors lite, if you're so inclined. In fact it is now my new preference. Having a new beer is not unlike having a new girlfriend, or what have you as the case may be. Especially when you know, it's probably not going to last that long but hey, for now, we're having fun...

impartialobserver Posted September 5, 2023 Report Posted September 5, 2023 The brewery in America that I would say makes the best beer is Dust Bowl Brewing out of Turlock, CA with Bayern Brewing out of Missoula, MT. Had some stuff from Double Shift Brewing out of Kansas City, MO and it was pretty solid stuff. Quote

The way you worded that makes it sound like they make the best beer in America. Solid stuff? Generally beers are either lagers or ales. Then ya got yer malt liquors, which are also might fine, might fine. Here's me enjoying a BA Johnson from Sawdust City. Edited September 8, 2023 by OftenWrong Quote
