- Greg C. is drinking a Farm Table: Dortmunder by Beau's All Natural Brewing Company at King & DufferinVery good Dortmunder with bread crust maltiness, herbal noble hops, hint of sulphur and some light minerality. Good balance throughout.
- Greg C. is drinking a Forever Sparkling by Folly Brewpub at King & DufferinExpected bright & effervescent based on name so haze is a bit disappointing, but it’s delicious - pineapple, lime zest, mandarin & more.
- Greg C. is drinking a Hitachino Nest Saison Du Japon by Kiuchi Brewery at Sho IzakayaSweeter & fuller in body than I usually like for the style, but the yuzu and malted rice both add some interesting flavour characteristics.
- Greg C. is drinking an Elvis Juice by BrewDog at Henderson BrewingA beer called “Elvis Juice” should really be the best beer ever made. This beer isn’t. But it’s still a rather nice grapefruit-infused IPA.
- Greg C. is drinking a Vagabond Pale Ale by BrewDog at Henderson BrewingGluten free? Really? Honestly wouldn’t know if you didn’t tell me. Just a nice pale ale with a herbal/soapy note to the hops.
