what an ontario master cicerone has to say

did you know that craft beer is catching on in bc?
of course you did
still, its a nice write up of bridge and deep cove

you probably know this too:
just one sip of beer can release happy brain chemicals
(for me, just a sniff of hoppy aroma is enough to get the rush – which if you read the whole article is slightly worrying from an alcoholism perspective, but whatever)

cask night

last night’s cask at the yaletown brewpub was their pale ale dry-hopped with cascades
and it was a good one!
rumour has it there’s a stout cask coming up…

because it was martini night (and that’s not my scene)
we left yaletown for rogue wetbar and more beer
because we follow rogue on twitter we got to try one of their new beer cocktails for free!
i love free!
and i love a bellini, so i went for the beerlini
pyramid apricot beer with bellini slush
it makes for a murky drink, but damn, its delicious!

then i had to have a pint of the hopworks abominable winter ale because they still had some available at rogue as their rotating tap
guess it isn’t officially spring for a couple more days…

question

craftbeer.us tweeted this the other day
and i think its a great question!!

Here’s the situation. You are allowed 3 specific beers to have on a desert island forever (in unlimited quantities). What are they? Go.

hmmmm
today i would pick central city red racer ipa
deschutes hop in the dark
and…..
can i have a rotating tap for #3?

i can’t make up my mind which is third
this is a hard question!!
