7/3357) Home:  Hungry Hollow by Furnace Room Brewery of Ontario:  ***;  5.5%; ; malt bill includes wheat and oats; from their Hazy Pale Ale series, the first installment of this rotating hops line;  only very mildly hazy for all that;  the tin does not reveal which hop but thankfully Untappd says Vic Secret;  crisp, fruity, apple-like citrus;

Named for a trail south of Georgetown along Silver Creek, branching off the Credit River.

8/3358) Home:  Kentucky Bastard Imperial Stout (2020) by Nickel Brook of Ontario:  ****1/2; 11.9%, 70 ibu; aged in Kentucky bourbon barrels; brewed with malted barley, malted wheat, oats and demerara sugar; sweet oak, vanilla, boozy bourbon nose; flavours of vanilla, oak, bourbon, booze, dark chocolate, dried fruit;  I had heard good things about the 2020 and still my expectations were exceeded;
