Beer of the Week – Shine On You Crazy Diamond

For all of the gallivanting around North, South and Central America we’ve done in search of fish, Hanna and I haven’t spent much time in Canada. Our last trip was Lake of the Woods in 2022, and that was just barely over the border.

That should change in the next couple of years, and we’re particularly excited about heading to the provinces we’ve yet to visit. Those include Alberta. Once we’re there, in order to feel local we’ll want to throw spoons like the classic red and white Dardevle and the Len Thompson Five of Diamonds. As long as we’re going native, we might as well enjoy a Blindman Brewing Five of Diamonds Pilsner.

Notably, Blindman’s brewery is located less than five minutes from the Len Thompson factory, and a portion of each Five of Diamonds sale supports conversation and recreational fishing programs.
