Drinks On Us

Steve Himel from Henderson Brewing joins us to talk about the best beer you'll ever have, brewery gymnastics, and how things have changed since the late 80s in Toronto's beer scene. We also discuss the drink you'll never have again, thanks to input from our Twitter respondents. Listen in because you never know what Michelle & Courtney will talk about next!

This week, Michelle and Courtney are joined by the not-so-silent partner Jamie from Rose N Crantz Coffee Roasters in Thunder Bay. He's the only person who's ever talked to us about going up north in such a way! The ladies also taste the Cellar Candy Pink Whitney Chewy Shots, and 30 Kicka** facts about liquor are explored.

On today's show, Taylor from Sweet Side Hustle by Tay joins us to talk about how she got started, her classes and creations, and a rhubarb machete. We're also joined by Teena from Cellar Candy, who creates wine gums with real wine - and it was her kids' idea! Finally, we sample Spearhead's Lighter Lager.

This week, the Drinks On Us team are joined by the team behind Common Bond. Which is a collaboration between Molson Coors and J.P. Wisers.

Listen as they get the lowdown on this collab from Andy, Beverage Director at Molson Coors, Don, Master Distiller at J.P. Wisers and Madison, from the Molson Coors Marketing team.

You’re going to really enjoy this!

St. Patrick's Day is nearly upon us once again! Why do we celebrate what we do, why do we wear green, and what are some traditions that are followed? Also, we talk to Omid from Dairy Distillery, makers of Vodcow and Vodcow Cream. They created an Almonte Friendship Series gift pack crafted with flavours from local companies.

Courtney sits down with Kevin Whiting to talk about Railway City's Brüniversity program, their new milkshake IPA, and a whole host of other things. Then, Courtney & Michelle talk about the 2021 Canadian Whisky Awards results. To close it all off, the ladies sample Spearhead's Madagascar Vanilla Bean Bock.

Get ready to listen to some fantastic interviews! Julius Makarewicz from Nude Beverages talks about being an industry pioneer in the hard seltzer category, and what's coming to the LCBO this spring.

Then, have you got a Thirst For Knowledge? Roger Mittag does, and he talks to Courtney & Michelle about how he started educating people about beer, and why it's important.

Courtney and Michelle talk to Jennifer Tamse, Beer Czar at the Charcoal Group of restaurants, about their growler program. And what the heck is a growler anyway, and how does it differ from a crowler or a howler? Also, there are TWO Celine Dion's in the world - listen to find out how it's possible!

We start off our show with Troy from Great Lakes Brewery. They made a big announcement this week, and Troy provides some more details about their BrewPub, coming this fall to the Harbourfront in Toronto.

Next we have a great chat with Ed from Shawn & Ed Brewery in Dundas. We’ve talked to Ed before about wine, but this time it’s mostly about beer. Their small batch series is running; learn more about that, their historic home, their brewmaster, and so much more. Plus! We get to taste!
