After London made their taste match, Montreal was more motivated than ever to do it. Based on my feedback, they too only had some minor adjustments that needed to be made and were determined to get it right as soon as possible.
With more and more Canadians enjoying Alexander Keith’s, it’s time to pass on our tradition by expanding beyond our hometown of Halifax, Nova Scotia.

Montreal Makes a Match!
Wednesday, February 9th, 2011We Have a Match!
Friday, January 28th, 2011With such small adjustments to be made to the trials in London, we made sure to do a second round of tasting while I was there. Based on our discussions and my feedback, Mark and his team had gone right back to work to try to get precisely the right match to Keith’s profile and thought they had corrected the minor things that needed to be changed.

Back to the Kettle, Scott!
Wednesday, June 10th, 2009The results have been thoroughly analyzed, and the Columbia Brewery’s Keith’s IPA that we tasted did not match the Halifax Keith’s IPA. Scott and the team need to go back and make some more changes. I will grant them that it was a good effort but the expectation is that in order to pass the [...]
The Results Are In
Tuesday, June 9th, 2009Again we are “taking the time to get it right” and now for the results of the taste comparison between Keith’s IPA brewed in Halifax versus the B.C. Keith’s IPA . Check out the video below to see if I conclude there is or is not a flavour match.
The Daily Tasting Panel
Friday, May 29th, 2009In one of my previous posts, I talked about the Keith’s Daily Tasting Panel . In this video, Scott and I review in more detail what goes into the daily tasting. Once Creston is accredited, Scott will also be completing this daily tasting to ensure that the Keith’s brewed in Creston BC tastes identical to the Keith’s brewed in Halifax.
