Matt Hodgson's Picks

Beach books + bevies: The Dark Tower

Let’s be honest: the beaches in Nova Scotia don’t quite measure up to those in PEI. However, with the right beer and a good book, you might not even notice the rocks, the ice-cold water, and the lack of sand. 

Boom, Nova Scotia beaches roasted (just like I am within five minutes of being there).

I’m a big Stephen King fan and recently started rereading what might be my favorite of all his works, the Dark Tower series. While Hollywood may have let us down with its adaptation of the series, Lone Oak’s Hollywood West Coast IPA is here to make everything better. With notes of caramelized oranges, dank and piney flavors, and just the right amount of bitterness, it’s incredibly well-crafted.
