Yeah, I picked up 1.5 lbs of Mosaic since it’s also my favourite hop and use it in every hoppy beer. Compared to Mosaic, I’m not as crazy about citra usually. We recently did a NEIPA and after the boil split the batch in 2 to ferment with different yeasts and do different dry-hopping. The one...

Stone Ruination 2.0: I tend to like a lot of Stone beers, but find the ones that show up at the lcbo tend to be a bit pricey. This is a DIPA and was pretty well done, with a good balance of hops and malts Schneider Aventinus (2018): I should have grabbed a few of these. Extremely smooth with...

I’ve been pretty impressed with most of the Dominion City beers that I’ve tried. I really like their Sunsplit IPA and also managed to get a couple cans of their Between Two Evils, which was really, really good.

I had a Hellwoods (imperial stout) by Bellwoods Brewery the other day. It was extremely smooth and well-balanced, especially considering that it’s 10%. It almost felt too clean, since it wasn’t particularly roasty and booziness was nearly non-existent, even as it warmed up. I had thought about...

Ok, here it is. Quite a bit of it is up to personal preference, especially how long you ferment for. 1 Head of Napa cabbage (say 4 lb. The rest of the recipe is scaled to this size of cabbage) ½ cup of large-flaked salt (kosher, Maldon, etc) 2 TBSP grated garlic 2 tsp grated ginger 2 tsp...

@Boots I have a pretty good kimchi recipe I could share with you, if you’re interested. It’s pretty easy to make.

@miggs I had the Inkwell and Working Hard when I stopped by the brewery today. Both were really good. I finally tried this 1105 by Sawdust City and Nickel Brook that had been in the fridge for a while. Pretty rich and smooth and the cherries really come through, maybe a bit too much...

A bunch of IPAs lately... Flying Monkeys Sparklepuff: huge and juicy and pretty smooth for 10.2%, but lots of hop floaters https://i.imgur.com/eLzrTBB.jpg Collective Arts IPA 8: better than 6 and 7 but not as good as 4 or 5. Pretty smooth, but the hops are a bit muted. Their latest Surround...

I’m also a big fan of the Zodiak. I’d say it’s one of my go to IPAs. Redline Clutch is another, but I haven’t had it in a while, and it’s also a bit less potent.

Left Field Laser Show: pretty mild for a double IPA, neither super malty nor super bitter like some other beers in this style. Smooth. Most of the hops were probably added pretty late (+double dry-hopped). Not hazy, unlike a lot of “Vermont”-style beers these days. Spencer Trappist Ale...

Thanks for the recommendations, @kwtoxman! I’ll check out the artists you mentioned. I’m familiar with Solomun’s boiler room set, as well a number of his sets at various years of Tomorrowland. I’ve been listening to a lot of Kangding Ray (https://soundcloud.com/kangding-ray). He’s more...

@kwtoxman that’s one of my favourite sets by Solomun on YouTube. If you don’t know him, Maceo Plex is also pretty good https://youtu.be/5vHRUsP20dQ
