- Greg C. is drinking an Under Pressure by MERIT Brewing at King & DufferinInspired take on a style that is starting to get tired. Hazy but not thick, juicy but not cloying, bitter but not sharp. Really great!
- Greg C. is drinking a Dream Pop by Fairweather Brewing Company at King & DufferinFair bit of depth for a kettle sour. Nice lemon & key lime flavour & dry hop is well integrated. Flavourful & not too bitter. Well done!
- Greg C. is drinking a Purity Pilsener by Walkerville Brewery at King & DufferinClean grainy malt with a hint of honey. Herbal noble hops, grassy finish. Nothing unexpected, just a really solid German Pilsner.
- Greg C. is drinking a Blood Simple by Beau's All Natural Brewing Company at King & DufferinCertainly a strong citrus character - not immediately identifiable as blood orange, but still very nicely balanced with the base beer. Good!
- Greg C. is drinking a LAGERSHED Lighter by Shawn & Ed Brewing Co. at King & DufferinLight body, crisp on palate, balanced flavour with clean malt and herbal hops. Simple and quenching, just as a light lager should be.
