Having correctly guessed which Double IPA was in front of them in the last podcast, Robin and Greg are looking forward to enjoying two other OCB-brewed interpretations of the style. The three Double IPAs featured this month are Amsterdam's Fracture Imperial IPA, Black Oak's Ten Bitter Years Imperial IPA and Manantler's Seismic Narwahl Imperial IPA.

We Tout the Stout
In this second Ontario Brewer Podcast for September, Master Cicerone Mirella Amato continues her exploration of OCB-brewed Stouts. She is once again joined by Robin LeBlanc, beer writer and owner of TheThirstyWench.com, and historian and beer writer, Jordan St.John at saintjohnswort.ca
Having correctly guessed which stout was in front of them in the last podcast, Robin and Jordan are looking forward to enjoying two other OCB-brewed interpretations of the style. The three stouts featured this month were Granite Brewery Keefe's Irish Stout, Mill Street Cobblestone Stout*, and Perth Brewery Oatmeal Stout.
* At the time these podcasts were recorded, Mill Street Brewery was still a member of Ontario Craft Brewers. Since then, the brewery has been purchased and has left OCB. We thank Mill Street for their past contributions and wish them well in the future. Click here for OCB's response to Mill Street's sale.

Customer Reviews
Getting behind the bubbles!
Hearing the voices of the people who craft your favourite brew is really interesting. Particularly for the folks who understand that care and sweat are key ingredient to a good brew.
Keep up the great work.
ps. Would love to hear from the Hockley Valley Brewing folks!
