While I enjoyed Microbrasserie À la Fût x BreWskey - Pub & Taproom 's "Série IPA Western- #2". This killer collab poured out with a slight hazy veil, smashed earthy notes on the nose & slapped a juicy yet complex tart finish. It clocked in with a 7.4% ABV.

Thirsty Thursday LIVE Matt Origin Story II

Thu, 08 Jul 2021 04:05:00 -0000

I invited three of my oldest friends to be my guests on this month's Thirsty Thursday LIVE!!!

One of my very first friends, Chris Flint, who I met in kindergarten and was in my first band Nixtasm. Vince Berardinucci, who I met in high school and I went to my first concerts with, drank my first beers with & discovered metal with. And finally, James Arsenian, the vocalist of Endast, who taught me a lot when I first started playing shows downtown in the early years of 3 Mile Scream.

No topic was off the table & we had a sick time indeed!!

Throughout this hang, I enjoyed Ras L'Bock x Boire Grand - WJW Saucissier Ahuntsic's "Sainte-Justine". This non-alcoholic brew was created to give back to CHU Sainte-Justine. This killer n/a Berliner Weisse was brewed with pineapple & lime. It was delicious & ultra refreshing! I followed up with L'Apothicaire x Augury's "Illusive Golden Ale" which was brewed as a part of Brewtal North America. This Belgian Golden Ale was hopped with a mixture of traditional & new world hops. This killer brew was slightly sweet, crisp & insanely drinkable. I finished up with Le Fermentor x The Agonist's "Brew As My Guide" which was brewed as a part of Brewtal North America. This 7% DDH IPA was ultra crushable & had an enjoyable resinous finish.

Keeping NEIPAs Fresh with Gabriel Dulong of Bière Boréale

Fri, 11 Jun 2021 04:05:00 -0000

Gabriel Dulong of Bière Boréale & I have a conversation about how he coped with 2020, his 1st brews, how he became a brewer, if he ever listened to metal, his 1st show, IPA du Nord-Est, freedom from flagships, keeping the beer fresh, collabs & his hangover cure.

Throughout this interview, we were enjoying Bière Boréale x Messorem Bracitorium 's "Tourbillon Polaire" the DDH Double IPA. This gorgeous brew poured out with a milky hazy veil, smashed juicy tropical fruits such as mangoes & pineapple on the nose, ripped a slightly sweet, fruity, dank, delicately boozy & enjoyable hop burn on the finish. It clocked in with a 8.6% ABV.

Thirsty Thursday LIVE with Chris Kells & Mihaela Petrescu

Thu, 10 Jun 2021 04:05:00 -0000

Chris Kells & Mihaela Petrescu & I have a conversation about how they coped with 2020, their 1st brews, joining the Vox&Hops Crew, working on Brewtal North America & if they could create their own unique collab for themselves.

Throughout tonight's hang I enjoyed 2 very special brews: Ras L'Bock x Microbrasserie À la Fût 's "L'Anse de Mékinac" & Microbrasserie À la Fût x Ras L'Bock 's "Rouge de L'Anse".

This is a unique Collab. Both breweries blended their own version of a Flanders Red with Wild Cherries with the others & then aged the results in Oak Barrels.

"L'Anse de Mékinac" pours out with a deep red orange veil, slaps earthy oak on the nose, rips a tart acidic fruity finish & clocks in with a 6.6% ABV.

"Rouge de L'Anse" pours out with a cloudy orange veil, radiates oak laced cherries on the nose, smashes a tart smooth funky finish & clocks in with a 5.4% ABV.

It All Started with the Prog Rock & Biker Shows with Félix B. Desfossés & Ian Campbell

Tue, 04 May 2021 04:05:00 -0000

Félix B. Desfossés & Ian Campbell the creators of No Speed Limit: Québec Metal & I have a conversation about their 1st brews, their 1st shows, the evolution of the Québec Metal Scene, why they chose to write a book, the biggest challenges, translating it to English & their hangover cure.

Throughout this interview, Félix was drinking Hopfenstark Brewery x Voivod 's "Lost Machine"! This SteinBier which is a traditional German style brew which is made by heating up rocks in a fire that are later placed in the wort was fantastic! Thanks to that unique process it has a more caramel & mineral flavor profile while remaining a crisp & crushable brew! It clocks in with a 5% ABV. Ian was drinking absolutely nothing because that is how Metal he is!!! While I was enjoying Le Trèfle Noir Brasserie Artisanale 's "Chernoe Pivo" the Imperial Stout aged in Bourbon Barrels. This phenomenal brew poured out with a thick black veil, smashed a booze driven nose, ripped a slightly sweet, chocolatey & coffee finish with a bourbon bite. It clocked in with a 8.7% ABV.

A Full Year of Thirsty Thursdays

Thu, 25 Mar 2021 04:05:00 -0000

A year ago, I started hanging out with some of my closest friends, some of the Vox&Hops Alumni & Vox&Hops' Heads on Zoom each Thursday. I called it Thirsty Thursdays. Little did I know at the time, just how important these hangs would become. The community, the family, the group of friends that has formed all across the globe is truly amazing. I am in awe of what it has become. To honor the 1 Year anniversary of Thirsty Thursdays I ask the members of the community to tell me what Thirsty Thursdays mean to them.

This brew pours out with a light yellowish veil, smashed a sweet melon nose & slaps a crisp cereal malty finish & 5e Baron 's "Améthyste". This fantastic NEIPA clocked in with a 7% ABV & poured out with a hazy yellow veil, smashed ripe mangoes on the nose, slapped tropical pineapple vibes on the finish & was an absolute delight!

I am very stoked to announce that I have enlisted the help of my friend & ultimate Vox&Hops' Head Jerry Monk to create monthly playlists where he features the most brutal new releases. I have aptly named Jerry the Metal Architect because he consistently sends me albums that he thinks I would enjoy. It was an easy choice to bring him on as the Curator of these monthly playlists.
