I have no idea why I think this is one of the best beer blog posts ever written but it is one of the best beer blog posts ever written.
The Junket Registry: A Good Beer Community Service for Tips and Confessions featuring Thrilling Tales of Graft and Sloth in the Lives of Wanton Dipsos!
Have a look at the commentary wiki for The Oxford Companion to Beer - and let us know if you have anything you would want to add.
Please support fine and imaginative local craft brewers like our nearby Church-Key Brewing of beautiful Pethericks Corners, Ontario.
Please visit our kind sponsors, Ontario Craft Brewers. They are the makers of many of the fine ales and brews you read about around here.
You can sponsor us, too. For less than four bucks a day you can now reach a whole whack of beer fans - plus an unknown number of RSS readers and all those spam bots, too. Ask us how at beerblog@gmail.
