Drinks On Us

Iced Coffee vs Cold Brew and cooking with tea!

Sawdust City Beer, Whiskey with Chris from Forty Creek, and wine with Chris from Colaneri Estate Winery.

Twitter weighs in with popular Canada Day beverages!

This week, Courtney takes us through Tea Trends for 2020. (try saying that 5 times fast!)

Three great interviews about beer! First, Ren to chat about diversity in beer, Amanda and Matt from Railway City chat with Courtney, and Erin from Little Beasts Brewing Co talks about women in beer!

Virtual Pride was this weekend, and the DOU duo take us through some of the online vendors you can support, who are likely really missing the business that Pride weekend brings to town.

And finally, you the listeners weigh in again! This time, you talk about your guilty pleasure drinks. Some of them are pretty good.

Happy Father's Day!

And we're back. This week - has COVID-19 affected the coffee supply chain? Will we see a shortage of coffee as a result? Michelle gives a 20 minute monologue (sort of) on coffee basics for those who may have had to learn how to brew coffee for the first time during the COVID shutdown.

In our new Northern Ontario Series - this week Courtney and Michelle are joined by Kevin from One Time Brewery in Thunder Bay to talk about their new brewery.

Just in time for Father's Day:

John from Nickelbrook joins to talk about their Father's Day release and things they have going on at the brewery.

Troy from Great Lakes Brewery joins to talk about their "Over My Dad Bod" Pilsner, and some of the great things they've been doing in partnership with Dalton and Ken Pompey, with the proceeds of their Electric Circus sales.

And Michelle finds a recipe online for how to make your own Kahlua, and does just that. (This one might get a bit sloppy...)

Join us, this is a good one!

After a quarantine break, Drinks on Us is back with a new co-host and a new show!

Courtney Lander Watson joins Michelle on a permanent basis!

This week the DOU duo talk about the benefits of green coffee and coffee with a cause!

Courtney walks us through some delicious Mocktails, for those days when you either can't or don't want to enjoy your favourite alcoholic beverage.

Josh Rubin of the Toronto Star joins Michelle and Courtney to talk about the state of the Beer Store. Then the girls take to twitter to see how their listeners have made use of delivery/curbside pickup from their favourite breweries and wineries throughout the COVID shutdown.

And finally, Michelle and Courtney make a blueberry iced tea cocktail live on the air, and share their thoughts on the concoction.

Matt is self-isolating, so Michelle is joined by Courtney for the week!

Because neither lady is Irish, naturally the theme was St Patrick's Day! Irish(ish) coffee is sampled, who invented Irish Coffee anyway?

Did you know that St Patrick's name wasn't Patrick, and he wasn't even Irish? These and other St Patty's Day facts are discussed.

After falling asleep and not making the planned Irish snack, Michelle goes on a journey prior to the show to find an Irish treat. Not sure she was successful, but the scones and jam were delicious nonetheless.

Courtney brought 3 stouts to enjoy. Is White Stout really stout? There seems to be controversy! The three stouts are all delicious, could highly recommend!

This is the old friends episode...

Hover and cover returns as Matt and Michelle taste Single Origin Kenyan coffee from Java Works! The duo kind of touch on International Women's Day...

10 weird coffee drinks...and they ARE weird. 10 Legends about alcohol.

And battle Milkshake IPA! It's less of a battle and more of a comparison. Lost Craft and Sawdust City Brewing offerings are discussed.

Coffee Myths are de-bunked...or are they?

Michelle makes Matt some delicious sangria, and suddenly he gets what all the fuss is about!

Cooking with Alcohol! Penne alla Vodka. So full of fat, yet so delicious!

Matt and Michelle talk about Taylor Swift's Netflix documentary, her music, and about how great her music is.

The duo, who were gifted some delicious Cuban coffee from sauga960's own Joty Pannu, try to make it authentically. Michelle screwed it up. Both agree that the coffee on it's own is delicious!

There's a guy who tried to register his beer as a support animal...not kidding. Michelle share's a White Claw story.

The main event is Brandon from Sawdust City Brewing Co, who brings delicious beer, and rocks the DOU duo's minds with Viva le Stout! Who doesn't want their beer to taste like a childhood favourite cookie?!

Courtney Lander-Watson joins Matt to fill in for the globetrotting Michelle.

The duo chat about "Pour Your Heart Into It", the book written by Howard Schultz about his adventures in making Starbucks into the empire that it is today. Matt reads some select quotes.

Alcohol flows from taps in India and Matt and Courtney chat about bourbon and what constitutes being labelled a bourbon whiskey. The DOU crew sample a wine aged in bourbon barrels.

90's Music Trivia is activated and Courtney fumbles her way through it.

The Drinks On Us duo is reunited! They're joined this week by Dave, who thought he was coming to observe, but instead ended up being part of the show!

Shehan of Lost Craft comes and shares the story of how Lost Craft came to be, and what the future looks like for them. Matt has a blonde moment halfway through the conversation...

Michelle & Matt fight over who will take the Lost Craft cider home with them...
