This Christmas things have changed as I have gone down the dark side enjoying the pleasures of sampling many of the great beers from Ontario, across Canada, the U.S. and the world.

I have a couple of bottles left of Saint Andres Lager. I am not a big lager fan but thought I would

There are a few Southern Tier IPA, a delicious American Pale Ale.

I brought home a suitcase 12 pack of one of my favorite Pilsners and the green bottles of Steamwhistle look quite festive sitting on the shelf.
Waiting for a tasting are my two bottles of Black Sheep Ale from Black Sheep

Finally there is the Signature Ale from County Durham, with it's nice hoppy bite.
In the past few months I have found many new favorites and agree with that old saying that variety is the spice of life.
Going to be a tasty Christmas, HoHoHo!
