I had been making plans to get my two kids out for some Perch on Simcoe this weekend, it would be their first time ice fishin. My 9 year old son has been itching to get out and my 8 year old daughter is pretty keen as well.

However, given that we would be white bucketing it, with no shelter, I have been forced to postpone this trip until next weekend given the forecast temps and high winds. I don't want to turn them off on their first trip by freezing their little ba doop do's off on their first try.

So, I have decided that we will stay home this weekend and I will do my best to find the bottom of some beer bottles! (2012 has not started off very well!)

So my biggest problem is.... yup, lager or ale?

What do you guys suggest???

Some good Mill St. Lager. That will go down nicely in these colder temps. Enjoy, I will be out on Simcoe just sheltered in the warmth of my hut.

Labatt Blue is a nice PILSNER.

Thanks... I find pilsner's to be too sweet... that said, a nice cold box of the "numbers" (50) has it's appeal!

LOL

I think I remember it being called Labatt Pilsner back in the 60s.

For me, I'll tend towards ales in the winter. (Fullers London Pride, Old Speckled Hen, Mill Street Tankhouse, and lately Crazy Canuck by Great Lakes). Summertime a whole different bunch of lagers or Pilsners, Especially Urquell. .

Cheers!

Knowing you like I do Joe I'd say Steam Whistle, nasty beer in IMO but good enough for you. ;)

 

Or perhaps some lemon wedges...... whistling.gif

From the guy who drinks Carling!!!!!!! :whistling:

Lemons are an important source of vitamins and fibre.... :angel:

Like that Mill St. choice. Maybe if the unseasonably warm temps keep up you should take Corona, some limes, sandals and your banana hammock! lol.

 

 

No pictures PLEASE.

kronenbourg 1664 for lager

 

Mill Steet Tankhouse for ale

 

 

Ugh, no offense, but that tankhouse ale was enough to put me in the outhouse. It's almost as bad as Red Racer Pale Ale... mellow.gif

I quite like Steam Whistle...

Sinclair this stement is wrong on sooooooooooo many levels....but i have to give it up to Steam Whistle for the innovation to duplicate the pine car fresheners into an alcoholic beverage....

Edit - Should add this - If you can find it around it's worth a try. Barley Days Brewery Some LCBO's carry the product or if you are out the Picton way just stop in. Hours and map.

February is stout season! Just finished up a bottle of Lake of Bays Mocha Porter. Also keep an eye out for Great Lake's Brewery's Red Leaf Ale [red ale similar to Rickards but far better], Black Creek Porter, as well as Creemore's UrBock. All excellent craft-brewed Ontario beer.
