beer as a part of Blyth's 140th
Justine Alkema
On Saturday, October 29, the
area in front of Scrimgeour's Food
market in Blyth was fenced off to
kick off Blyth's 140th celebrations.
For Blyth's 140th year, Blyth is host-
ing 140 events, with this being the
first.
As a part of this primary
event, Cowbell launched their
second beer, called Doc Pur -
due's Bobcat. This beer is the
second of five beers in their
"Founder Series" which will
remain a core series of Cowbell
beer in the future. Like their first
beer in the series, the Absent
Landlord, it is named after one
of the founders of the Blyth.
The beer is a west coast ale
which is a mix of an IPA and a
west coast pale ale. There are tons
of hops and lots of flavour, how-
ever without the intense bitter
aftertaste. It is juicy with lots of
grapefruit flavour and pine. It has
a strong aroma, is full bodied and
is incredibly clean.
Territory manager Bobby
Wagland said it is a great intro-
duction to strong beer, since
even though it is super fla-
vourful and hoppy, the
minimal aftertaste makes it easy
to drink.
Doc Purdue was available for
free, generous samples. Absent
Landlord was for sale at the event
as well as Scrimgeour's sausages.
The local band Sal's Valley also
played at the event.
They wanted to provide the beer
for free samples so the local com-
munity was the first to try it.
"We really wanted people to be
able to sample and taste it in our
back yard," said Director of County
Cool Experiences Genny Smith.
It will be available at LCBOs early
to mid-December and at several
restaurants including the Black
Dog.
There was a pub crawl in the
evening as a part of the event as
well.
The third beer in the series
will come out next year. How-
ever beginning in the next few
weeks, Cowbell is planning on
releasing a number of beers in a
short, one off series, with a
number of more unique beers.
These will be made in a
very small supply with
