Canadian Band Beer series
This is gimmicky, but cool. CBC Music did a poll earlier this year for Canadian Band Beer puns, garnering results such as "You say barley, we say rye!" (Dark Rye "IPA" @ 5.5% & 55 IBU) and "Said the ale" (5.8%, 28 IBU Belgian Pale Ale). They're being brewed by R&B Brewing in Vancouver. I wish I could get my hands on some just for the labels.
I think I'll try to rip the recipes off and make my own.

Brewing right now: whatever is going on tap at Stillwell in a few weeks.

Re: Canadian Band Beer series
What song does the second one refer to?
This is my signature. There are many like it, but this one is mine.

Re: Canadian Band Beer series
Well, I've never been too impressed by the beer in the R & B bottles. If you can't have that, I guess you have to have some gimmick to get sales. I'll take a look down at our one good beer store this weekend and see if I can find one with a label to send you Ben.

Ben,
A & I have managed to get three of the four. PM me your snail mail and I will send the labels out east.
