WINNIPEG, MB – Half Pints Brewing have announced that their Sweet Nikki Brown will be hitting shelves in Alberta this week. Here’s a description from owner/brewmaster David Rudge:
It’s an American Brown Ale brewed for my lovely wife, Nicole. Lots of up front, dark chocolate malt notes, with a snappy grapefruit hop aroma from a liberal Centennial dry hopping.
The bottle reads: “A little sweet and a little bitter, just like my wife.” So true…

- Greg C. is drinking an Ice Cider by Spirit Tree Estate Cidery at The Kay Gardner Beltline TrailSplit at tasting. Lacks the complexity of top notch ice ciders, but has a nice sweet-sour green apple thing going on.
- Greg C. is drinking an Emperor Norton by Almanac Beer Company at The Kay Gardner Beltline TrailSplit at tasting. Old bottle but still in pretty good nick - apricot meshes well with the strong Belgian-ish ale. I dig it.
- Greg C. is drinking a Mature Situations by Goose Island Brewhouse Toronto at The Kay Gardner Beltline TrailSplit at tasting. Everything noted in the description - honey, blackberry, lemon, Pinot Noir - is there in great balance. Nicely done.
- Greg C. is drinking a 21st Century Means by Stillwater Artisanal at The Kay Gardner Beltline TrailSplit at tasting. Not sure what they’re going for here. Malty amber ale crossed with dry & peppery farmhouse beer? It’s... weird.
- Greg C. is drinking a Ruby by Burdock at The Kay Gardner Beltline TrailSplit at tasting. Another great saison-wine hybrid from Burdock. Lots of berry & fruit-forward wine notes. Summery & refreshing.
