“Lake Effect IPA – Tank Ten” (IPA), Great Lake Brewing

January 15, 2014 by Dale Leave a Comment

Ok, so I’m learning that I’m a sucker for a pretty, I mean well-designed, bottle. Yes, I guess that makes me easily influenced when it comes to beer reviews …. (Shhhh) So here’s a 650mL bottle that has been yearning towards me for a number of weeks, but I had to get through the Renaissance…

Baked Brie with Maple-Apple Jelly

January 14, 2014 by Dale 5 Comments

I’ve talked many times about the hedonistic pleasures of food, but there are going to be few things in life that get more hedonistic than baked brie in all its molten, gooey glory.  When I created my maple-apple jelly in the fall, I knew I was going to be tested in terms of what I…

“M.P.A.” (Imperial India Pale Ale), Renaissance Brewing Company

January 11, 2014 by Dale Leave a Comment

As evidenced by my last beer review, every risk does not bring with it a happy Discovery. So it is with some trepidation that I stepped off the cliff and prepared to sample the third of Renaissance’s beers that I had purchased, this one an imperial aka “double” India pale ale (DIPA). I love love…

Inspired by Tradition but Proudly Ourself: A Canadian Resolution

January 7, 2014 by Dale 12 Comments

I love problems … love finding solutions to impossible predicaments. Challenges beget curiosity and creativity and they fill me with resolve…. Each New Year doesn’t in-and-of-itself present a problems to me: it provides a 365¼ day tableau on which to create life. And, other than when I’m actually writing, there is nothing I love doing…

Eggnog with Forty Creek Whisky

January 6, 2014 by Dale 2 Comments

Canadian Whisky Eggnog

Mmm, what better cocktail to ring in the holidays than eggnog? Unless you are allergic to eggs or lactose intolerant, eggnog is probably pretty high on your list of winter indulgences … and judging by the run on the store-fresh organic stuff from our local produce chain, Farmboy, there are a lot of people who…

Triple-Ginger Gingersnaps

January 5, 2014 by Dale 2 Comments

Triple Gingersnaps

Gingersnaps … for ginger fools™. One of my grandmother’s legacies to me is a love everything ginger. Ever since I was a child, I would eat anything ginger that she pressed into my hands: ginger marmalade, candies, crystalized ginger, chocolate covered ginger … and gingersnaps. I ate it all … I adored it all. And…

“Discovery” (American Pale Ale), Renaissance Brewing Company

January 3, 2014 by Dale Leave a Comment

There seems no better way to start a new year or describe my own yearning in life than discovery …. So I pulled the second of the Renaissance trio I have in my fridge, intent to start the new year fresh and ready to explore what 2014 will bring me … and not so secretly…

Pumpkin Pie Latte

December 30, 2013 by Dale 5 Comments

A few things about me…. I love my coffee and almost every day starts the same with a latte. I love all things pumpkin and as much as I generally dislike the coffee and commercialization that is all-things “Starbucks,” I do adore the emergence of their pumpkin spice latte every year. But, in some regards,…

“Perfection” (English Pale Ale), Renaissance Brewing Company

December 28, 2013 by Dale Leave a Comment

After watching Invictus the other night and then scoping out my fridge for what to taste next, the New Zealand trio seemed almost perfect given the how big the All-Blacks rugby team had figured in the film. As bold as Eastwood was to dive into a sacred moment in world history, Renaissance Brewing is equally…

Traditional Tourtière

December 27, 2013 by Dale 2 Comments

Some traditions run deep …. A few weeks ago, I broke with French-Canadian tradition and created a vegetarian tourtière and wrapped it in a gluten-free crust that stole the show. While  the French-Canadian in the family loves her whole grains and veggies, she isn’t a vegetarian and she couldn’t for the life of her figure…
