Two young babies discuss the Ontario craft beer scene together while cultivating a strong and lasting relationship.
Boo!!!!!! We're here to frighten and shock and make you thankful on this week's edition of the BNP. We tried three pumpkin ales from Great Lakes Brewery, Flying Monkeys Brewing and Big Rig Brewery and it was quite the ride. We're not usually adjunct boys but I think we found some winners in the pumpkin patch this year boy howdy!! We are thankful for you!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Woah! After a five week recording break, the two small babes had a lot to catch up on. So much in fact that we dedicated an entire episode to scrolling through our Untappd feeds. What a thrill... We paid specific attention to Matron Fine Beers out of Bloomfield (whose Leisure Landbier is a strong contender for Beer of the Year) and Town Brewery in Whitby, but also mentioned some winners from Signal, Block 3, The Second Wedge, Halo, Dominion City, Sonnen Hill, and Left Field. Lots of stuff to love!! Follow us Untappd @brewnorthpod Follow us Instagram @brewnorthpod --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app
The holy trinity of hype comes to a satisfying conclusion as the BNP boys head on over to beautiful Caledon, ON to experience this juggernaut brewery. We really went through a journey across the four beers that we sampled. We had our first Belma hop experience which Caleb found fully transcendent, saying the drinking experience was like "getting swaddled in an adult-sized manger". Mark likened Sabro Lotus to receiving "funky acupuncture". We both thought Very Provocative had a Very Appropriate name, with quotes such as "it's like the devil in my mouth; take me away, O master," and "it's like getting the shit beat out of me but in a cool way," emerging from the experience. The hype is real! Please make the trip and support these legends as they begin expanding further! Peace and love, stay safe, have a great weekend!
Kingston, Ontario!!! We have officially consumed you. A grand young lass who is also Caleb's twin sister supplied us with the goods from Stone City Ales and boy are we ever grateful. We had an absolutely grand cerveza-style lager, a Jelly King-level fruited sour and an absolutely groovy single hop IPA that blew our little melons wide open. What a treasure, what a treat. Come along for the ride if ya want
Wee-woo wee-woo amazing brewery alert! This week, us baby boys drove on down to Ayr, Ontario to nab some gold from one of the newest and brightest stars in the Ontario scene, and holy smokes was it ever worth it. No spoilers but if you listen to this episode you'll be listening to us experience our new favorite pilsner ever for the first time. We can't stop thinking about it. Go to Ayr!!! Peace and love, have a grand weekend
This week the humble young lads are smashing three beers that are actually accessible in the LCBO! It's Great Lakes Brewery!! Being veteran figureheads of the Ontario scene, we needed to give these folks a shout early doors not only out of respect for the old-guard, but because they have meant so much to both of us. Caleb has already made his obsession with and nostalgia for their Canuck Pale Ale clear, and Mark has a very special connection with Octopus Wants to Fight IPA, which we drank alongside Sunnyside Session IPA and their newest year round release, HazeMama NE IPA! Spoiler alert, we love GLB. Drink along if ya want! Chances are good that all three of these beauts are available at your local government controlled beer distributor. :) Peace and love! Wear a mask and respect each other!

Their IPA got snatched up real quick, but we managed to nab their More Czech than German Pilsner and their Space Juice DIPA, two of the most complex beers in their respective styles that we have ever consumed. It was a real delight! The boys then jump in to their favorite Lagers and Pilsners that we have had up until this point.

We're drinking something other than IPA and lager today! What a thrill. Caleb was way out of his comfort zone but Mark was right in the sweet spot. We compared three different iterations of the Black is Beautiful worldwide collaboration this week, and it was a very interesting experience - there's more to stouts than just roasty-toastiness!! There will definitely be versions of this collab in your local area so grab one or five and tag along with the two baby boys.
