144/1962) The 3 Brewers, Heartland:  Uncle Sam's Hoptacular Adventure by The 3 Brewers of Ontario:  **1/2;   pours positively murky;  earthy resiny pine flavours;  citra hops make their presence known towards finish;

This differs from the version of some eleven months ago in that it adds Mosaic, Centennial and Citra hops to their IPA - fewer hop varieties and since it is quite a different beer I am counting this as new to me.

145/1963) Home:  Freedom 35 Trailer Park Boys Lager by North American Craft of Ontario:  *;  5%;  added wheat flakes;  bready nose;  mild fruitiness;  sharp hop bite;  Rumour has it contract brewer Paul Dicky is the brewmaster.

"From the heart of the park"

"From Sunnyvale Trailer Park with love"

I had to miss the opportunity to attend the launch of this beer at the Queen's Quay LCBO in Toronto.  It sounded like a lot of fun.  The actors were there in character and tins were signed.
