231/879)  Home:  Sea Dog Amber Ale by Vancouver Island Brewery of British Columbia:  *1/2;  brewed in Victoria, as a tribute to the West Coast Royal Canadian Navy;  malt and central European hops dominate the nose;  malty with a mild hop finish;

232/880)  Home:  Smokin' Banana Peels by Beau's All Natural Brewing of Ontario:  *;  Wild Oats #11;  4.9%;  pours a  cloudy yellowy colour;  smoky bacon nose;  very smoky taste reminiscent of bacon over-powers mild clove and banana notes;  as I have said before, smoked beers do not work for me, except as a marinade - your mileage may vary;  from Beau's Oktoberfest four pack;

233/881)  Home:  Brooklyn Pilsner by Brooklyn Brewery of New York, U.S.A.:  *1/2;  "brewed in the style favored by New York's pre-prohibition German-American brewers";  strong Euro-hop nose;  a malty lager with a bite of central European hop at the finish;
