We're just caught in the middle as an industry right now, and we shouldn't have to be because we are the largest customers for producers' barley," said Phil de Kemp, president of the Malt Industry Association of Canada. Gord Flaten, the wheat board's vice-president of marketing, said this might solve the problem from the malting industry's perspective. But if his organization bore the brunt of these liabilities, it would incur "huge financial losses," which it cannot afford and which would come directly out of farmers' pockets. (The wheat board deducts its costs from payments to Prairie farmers for the grain it sells on their behalf.) "I think it's important to point out that the wheat board doesn't have a bunch of money to cover losses like this," Flaten said. "The only money we have ...
I have been listening to [Eric Clapton] since the 1960s and was happy to hear songs that reminded me of why I became a fan. Whether a member of Cream, or Derek and the Dominoes, or simply as himself, Clapton is one of music's true icons. It's unfortunate that he can't stand there and play for hours to include every song, but at 61 years of age he still holds an audience in awe. As far as I and the friends I was with were concerned, it was a Clapton show and it was awesome. The untold story connected to this spring's flooding in Selkirk is the damage being sustained by Lake Winnipeg. When river levels are high, Selkirk's sewer system dumps directly into the Red River. The same happens in Winnipeg a few times a year, usually after heavy rains. Both cities claim the situation is unfortuna...

Some people frown, but a drop of water will open whiskey up and enhance it," [Robert Galbraith] said, motioning for us to put a few drops -- "just a splash now" -- into the first whiskey we would taste, Bushmills Original. He called it a "gentle giant, a soft and mellow blend. We moved on to two other Bushmills: Black Bush and Single Malt 10-year-old. Galbraith helped us describe the flavors; for Black Bush, we used such words as "assertive" and "lovable rogue." (Isn't that the way every Irishman is described?) For the 10-year-old single malt, "delicate with a hint of chocolate-vanilla." Next, he invited us to smell, then taste Johnnie Walker Red Scotch. The smoky odour and taste were startling after the mellow Irish whiskeys. "That smokiness is from the peat," Galbraith said. "When S...
This is not, naturally and understandably, the image that the National Historical Society wishes to attach to itself --although its subscription rate might soar if its content was true to its title. Unfortunately, the HBC, as originally founded, was looking for beaver of the traditional sort. The NHS, consequently, plans to change the magazine's title to Canada's History. That not only will erase a bit of Canada's history because of political correctness and Internet-marketing, but it will also almost certainly yawn the circulation of Canada's best historical magazine down. Ukraine goes to the polls in a presidential vote that may not be conclusive, but will likely point the way to warmer relations between Kiev and Moscow and, as a consequence, more power for Vladimir Putin's Kremlin re...

Carol McDonald is a former Winnipeg journalist now living in Victoria who is passionate about making good bread. She has tinkered with and tweaked recipes to try and get close to the City rye bread flavour she fondly remembers, and kindly shares her recipe, Winnipeg rye bread for the home baker. Taste Tester Notes: A delightful rye bread with good flavour and texture, chewy crust and crunchy bits of rye. I couldn't find coarse rye meal, and used whole rye kernels (available at Vita Health) that I chopped in a blender. If you are a beer maker, you may have the malt on hand. The only place I could find that was Grape and Grain on St. Mary's in St. Vital (I used molasses). I used traditional yeast and a stand mixer, and the dough was easy to work with. My loaves were browning quickly, so ...
On that last score, the movie stars real martial arts star Michael Jai White (Spawn) doing an excellent impersonation of '70s martial arts star Jim Kelly in the title role (why yes, his name is Black Dynamite). Mr. [Dynamite] is an orphan-turned-CIA agent-turned-ghetto avenger, investigating a shipment of drugs apparently meant to be consumed by neighbourhood orphans. ("Not the orphans!") and a toxic brew of malt liquor. On the DVD extras is a whole episode of a British movie series titled The Fabulous Picture Show in which Dabis is shown doing a Q&A on the film at an Arab film festival, discussing how her own adolescent experience during the first Gulf War inspired this film. Elsewhere, there's straight B-roll interviews with the cast and crew in which production designer discusses...
You'll get an absolute explosion of flavour and a finish that will go on seemingly forever on your palette. You'll get the privilege of knowing what you're tasting is one of the most prestigious products produced. You'll be celebrating the labour of the people who made it and the distiller that produced it," he said. The white and black varieties of Bowmore are named for the casks in which they're aged. The black was aged in sherry casks and has a darker colour while the white aged in bourbon casks and is lighter in colour. They're both distilled from single malt barley. Will your taste buds thank you if you drop $4,500 on a bottle of single-malt scotch? Here's an excerpt from the tasting notes of White Bowmore: "The colour is golden syrup with amazing aromas of Gallia melon, mango and...
Of course, their next line is usually, 'I can't believe YOU'RE still here, too," says [Janet Klowak], who's been dishing out malts -- and more -- for 22 years, about half as long as the malt stand has been in business. "We definitely got a lot of 'I'd forgotten about this place,' or 'I used to love coming here,' during last (month's) Brier," says Ron Baker, the Bay's regional food services manager. "But on a typical Saturday, this place is packed with parents and grandparents bringing their kids downtown. It's actually become sort of a generational thing. Before its current incarnation, the restaurant was known as Chicago Frank's -- a move, Baker says, aimed at emphasizing the locale's food choices. (Don't believe the rumour that the all-beef smokies sizzling on Malts More's ever-...
AGRICULTURE Minister Chuck Strahl has thrown his weight behind a proposed grain industry centre of excellence in Winnipeg, saying the idea has "some real merit". I'm pleased to hear that the minister recognizes the merit of trying to create here in Winnipeg a centre of cxcellence, where we can bring all of the best science together in the cereal industry in one facility and learn from the synergies and build on the synergies that that will bring to us," said Earl Geddes, a wheat board vice-president. * Canadian Malting Barley Technical Centre, which supports Canada's malting barley, malt and brewing industries through applied research and pilot-scale trials at its pilot malting and brewing facilities in Winnipeg.
There are some hints of green malt and nice toasty notes on the nose of the [Yanjing Beer]. It's a nice, crisp, sharp beer that has green leaf and apple flavours, and tastes pretty nice well-chilled on a hot day. The Chinese wine industry is booming -- I've gotta try some. Almost root beer-like in colour, the Folklorama Lager has a malty, nutty nose. It's got some caramel and toffee notes on the palate, but is far smoother and crisper than its colour suggests. It's like Fort Garry Dark's younger, spunkier cousin. A nice creation. While this sake appears pink in the bottle, it's grainy and murky white in the glass, with a nose of pistachio, flowers and, well, rice. There's a hint of sweetness to the Sayuri, and it's almost cloying on the palate, but there are some nice nutty and floral f...
