The only beer they make that is very tasty lager that looks lite, but has a rich and full taste, but not hoppie or too IPA. It is a red shaded golden with a very good frothy top and holds that head all the way down the pint!

This was a recomendation of the tender at Vintage Chophouse in Calgary over Traditional ale.

Whistler Black Tusk is the first choice for the evening. This is a bold black (surprise) beer with a bitter bite for an aftertaste.

I was not sure how I would like it, but with the microbrewed halibut and chips, it goes down smooth!

Pappa J is on the road again… This time sitting at Bottlescrew Bills Old English Pub in Calgary Alberta Canada on a Wednesday night.

Decided to have a French Oinion soup (I am a sucker for a good soup with my beer). The soup was really interesting … not the best this monk has had, but the fresh sliced onions and a bit of chedar on top really worked well.

Well, the first selection for the night is Wild Rose Brewery’s Brown Ale (recommended as the best in the house by tender). The brown ale is very tasty , sweet even with a touch of hops in he aftertaste , but not too much.  I would compare it to a darker (better than) Newcastle.  Has a bite on the front end but after two…going down smooth.

Oh, by the way also hade the Son of a B*%sh stew – that is AWESOME!!

May your next brew give you a frothy mustache
