After two days of snow shovelling and blowing I need some energy. Thank goodness I have something that fits the bill. Hopeye by Rouge River Brewing Company. It’s a Hazy IPA with oodles of hoppy deliciousness. #epicbeeradventure #beer

A couple we know went to Hawaii recently and I begged for them to bring back some Kona AA beans back. Today I was able to brew and let me tell you, it’s like heaven in a cup. #coffeezilla #coffee

You know who I feel bad for now? The staff at the Liquor Control Board of Ontario, BC and QC. They gotta put all that American alcohol back on the shelves for another month. #tariffs

I received Box TWO by NPH yesterday and I can’t wait to rip this open and get extremely frustrated with my problem solving skills. The first one was so much fun and even with the duty, US exchange, I had to buy it. Wish me luck! @nphstuff.bsky.social

Do you live in Canada and want to support local Canadian products and services? Here is a website that you can use to plan out your shopping list. I suspect the site will be busy after tonight’s tariff announcement by the Orangeman. madeinca.ca

I love playing this album with company in the house. I have yet to have anyone know what band this is and when I tell them, they don’t believe me. Beastie Boys, The Mix-up, Brooklyn Dust Music. #Vinyl

Friday night is vinyl night. I pulled this and didn’t recognize the cover art. Do you have this one in your collection? #vinyl #music

Dee and I did a 10k loop in the woods and my reward is a scrumptious Chimay Blue and a seat by the fire. Now that is how you spend a Sunday afternoon folks. #epicbeeradventure #beer

I knew I wasn’t dreaming. The imported beers available at the LCBO have been decreasing over the last few years. Thanks for sharing @beaumontdrinks.bsky.social how do we fix this, is the question? #beer

Here’s my fave shot I took in 2024. Dee & I walked over to the new Canadian Canoe Museum in PTBO and when we were heading back near the lake I caught this. #favephoto #sunset

Time for another #epicbeeradventure with this Belgian, BIERE DES AMIS CR[H]AZY IPA. I am loving the stubby bottle as well as the flavours of this 5.5 % New England Style IPA. #beer

Tonight’s choice is the Hanky Panky, but alas I didn’t have any Fernet Branca so I subbed in Amaro. #cocktails #cheers

My son got me these amazing cocktail cards from Death & Co and my wife chose to make the Monte Carlo. What a great way to expand your knowledge and tastebuds. #cocktails #cheers

Happy Boxing Day world. While I did break down a few boxes today I did no shopping. Instead, I cleaned the oven and took a nice long walk with the Mrs. Now time to sit back and relax with one of my fave beers, Rochefort 10. Man those Monks now how to brew! #epicbeeradventure #beer

The last 45 of the night is from one of my all time favourite artists. David Bowie and Bing Crosby singing Peace on Earth/Little Drummer Boy from 1982 on RCA. #vinyl #MerryChristmas #hohoho

The next Christmas record was a purchase based on the packaging. Look at this gem. Mario Lanza sings four Christmas Carols. 1956 on RCA Victor. #vinyl #merrychristmas #hohoho

I found this album at our local record store downtown. Each year I pick up a few gems. This is Christmas with Patti Page from 1951 on Mercury Records. #merrychristmas #hohoho #vinyl

Thurstdays are great days for new beer adventures. Tonight’s gem is an English Trappist Ale called Tynt Meadow. It’s brewed by the the Monks at Mount Saint Bernard Abbey in the UK and comes in at 7.4% ABV. A solid caramel malty treat for certain. #epicbeeradventure #beer #cheers

It’s not the end of the world. Well, it actually is what this beer is called. This Belgian style IPA is from Quebec, Canada. Unibroue knows something about making delicious beers and this one is on mark. At 9.5% ABV, you’d think it would overpower the beer but it doesn’t. #epicbeeradventure #beer

Someone has been baking and I helped. I chopped the chocolate and greased the pans so that means I get first choice. Look at these magnificent shortbread! #baking

In Canada we honour the moose and bear. It appears the fine folks at Sawtooth Brewery in Idaho do too. This tandem Dbl IPA packs a punch with 8% ABV and 65 IBU. I call it delicious, perfect for a snowy Sunday afternoon! #beer #epicbeeradventure

Here’s one from my Advent Beer Calendar. Hello Velo, a sparkling crisp ale from Wold Top Brewery in the UK. Perfect for a summer day after riding in the countryside. Since it’s 1 degree here and we just went on a hike in the snow, I should have gone for a stout or porter! #epicbeeradventure #beer
