334/2152) Home:  Viaduct IPA by Danforth Brewery of Ontario:  **1/2;  6%;  named for the Prince Edward (or Bloor) Viaduct which crosses the Don River and connects Bloor Street to Danforth Avenue;  fresh pine dominates the nose;  flavors are a blend of pine and citrus, the balance leaning towards pine;  I wish it was easier to find;

335/2153) Home:  Sergeant Stripes Export Stout by Beau's All Natural Brewing Co. of Ontario:  **1/2;  7.9%;  Wild Oats series;  brewed with barley, malted and unmalted, and blackstrap molasses;  roasty nose with sweetness, but not the bourbon or oak variety, and dark, nearly burnt, coffee;  dry roasty flavours, faint alcohol;  sweetness emerges at the finish and through the aftertaste;  it has a nice sweet edge without any sort of barrel aging; 

From Beau's Fall Mixed Pack.

336/2154) Home:  White by Black Bellows Brewing Co.of Ontario:  *;  5%;   a take on a wit with malted barley, unmalted wheat and spices;  opaque;  yeasty nose;  assertive yeast, wheat flavours;  nothing special;
