613BeerCast613BeerCast #34 - Dan Beaudoin from Brasserie Étienne BrûléKaty (@klwatts) is joined by Chuck Thibert (@varxint) and Dan Beaudoin to chat about Brasserie Étienne Brûlé (@brasserieeb) and what made him make the big move from Toronto to Embrun to brew beer! Show Notes: Just in case you need more information about who Étienne Brûlé is (isn't it nice that you get a history lesson with your beer?). I will admit I have a domain registering addiction and it took all of my will power not to stop the podcast and register those domains. Ecocert is a Canadian organization that certifies organic producers, process...2016-12-0553 min
613BeerCast613BeerCast #33 - Shane Clark and Rob McIsaac from Beyond the Pale Brewing Company You have no idea.. Katy (@klwatts) invited Shane and Rob from Beyond the Pale Brewing Company (@btpbrewing) to her apartment to record a podcast. Little did she know what she was getting into.. Show Notes: I sometimes wonder how I get all of these people to come into my apartment. Oh right, beer. A beer a day for 41 years - that's job security. It's true, the hotel I stayed at in Mexico did blow up. Gainsbourg is a brewpub in Gatineau that JB used to brew at. It was known to serve some fantastic b...2016-11-2846 min
613BeerCast613BeerCast #32 - The Stray Dog Launch Party Ahh, the "OH SHIT I NEED A PHOTO" beer glass half full shot. Katy (@klwatts) treks to Orleans to attend the Stray Dog Brewing Company (@StrayDogBeer) launch party at Occo Kitchen (@occokitchen). Little do the attendees know, she has a recorder in hand.. Show Notes: Katy, why didn't you take an Uber or a taxi to Orleans? Well, this is not a high budget podcast. And, how else was I suppose to get that sweet, sweet bus background noise recorded? I believe this is the brewery that Marc is referring to in Navan: Draft Ho...2016-11-2027 min

Katy (@klwatts) is joined by April Thibert (@AThibert) and Ian McMartin of Whiprsnpar Brewing Company (@whiprsnaprbrew) to chat about beer, Whiprsnapr's 2nd Birthday and how the brewery is doing. Show Notes: Little do you know, listener, I have edited out a whole chunk of the podcast where Ian and April were making fun of a dishwasher smell that was coming off my tasting glasses. Those beer drinkers! So persnickety! Just like wine, brewshops can offer a "ferment on premise" option for beer (although it seems less popular). Perth Brewery is known as a...2016-11-1354 min

613BeerCastEpisode 26 - Old Beers, New Friends Best beer in the world? Hmm... Katy (@klwatts) is joined by new friends (who she met through the podcast!) Emily (@ercbrown) and Jamie (@jamiemasse) to drink some mostly old beers. Show Notes: Does anyone even care about episodes numbers? Yeah, the dry hopping was a fail. Halo Brewery is a Toronto-area brewery that opened in May by three homebrewers. I can't identify with the 0-80 mentality at all (/sarcasm). I have a real hard time associating beer flavours with other descriptors. I'm getting better over time, but it's a real skill to be able...2016-09-061h 01
