Hey folks, sitting outside the Sens Watch Party outside the Canadian Tire here in beautiful Kanata, Ontario. Here’s some cutting edge live content—reviewing a simple, modest Molson Canadian.Remember—DPO will never die!

Rumours of Domestic Pints ONLY's demise have been grossly exaggerated! After a long, unintentional hiatus, John and Tom transition from the alcoholic high highs of Cutwater to the low lows of these domestic light beers. We run through SLEEMAN CLEAR 2.0., and then the new revamped PABST LIGHT, and finish up with YUP! LITE. Along the way we caught up on some matters, including: Crush party packs; John Daly; PUP and other late 2025 concert trips; MF DOOM; messing up deliveries; 1-800 'HOP LOVE'; breaking your glasses; and at the end of the pod we wrap with our special sports discussion 'DSPN'—now out of date (RIP Steelers and Rams) but included for laughs.We'll likely be releasing future episodes at an inconsistent rate, but we will probably return with a stouts lineup.Timestamps:04:32 Beer #1 (SLEEMAN)30:59 Beer #2 (PABST)52:36 Beer #3 (YUP!)01:14:17 Wrap up, final scores, and conclusionCredits:Intro and closing song: "Drink Beer (Till the Day That I Die)" by Dazie Mae (www.daziemae.com)Artwork: IG @nartsattack (www.natalierivet.com)

This week on Domestic Pints ONLY, John and Tom finally get around to cracking open the Cutwater Mixer 8-Pack. Quick disclaimer, these pack a punch, even consumed in the quantity we normally profile in these episodes. Fortunately, we are built different. We work our way through the lineup, starting with the carbonated Vodka Mule, and then working our way to the punchier cocktail lineup: Lime Margarita, Rum Mai Tai, and Mango Margarita. We also discuss: karaoke mules; Kyle Pitts; Terrell Pryor; Mug Root Beer Presents the Dana Carvey Show; buying vapes in NYC; John's Montreal beer adventures; and Tom winning tickets (again) on the radio. We'll like be back soon with another seltzer and another stout lineup.Timestamps:09:27 Cocktail #1 (VODKA MULE)14:15 Cocktail #2 (LIME MARG)39:11 Cocktail #3 (RUM MAI TAI)53:06 Cocktail #4 (MANGO MARG)01:21:07 Wrap up, final scores, and conclusionCredits:https://www.cutwaterspirits.com/Intro and closing song: "Drink Beer (Till the Day That I Die)" by Dazie Mae (www.daziemae.com)Artwork: IG @nartsattack (www.natalierivet.com)

As the months roll by, we accumulate random beers that don't neatly fit into an episode, so this week (or rather a few weeks ago, posting this a bit late, sue me!) on Domestic Pints ONLY we compare and contrast a few craft ales. First up is the nitro AL'S CASK ALE from C'est What in Durham, ON. The second selection is Rally's TRAIL BLAZER GOLDEN ALE. The last selection we return to Toronto's own Henderson Brewing Company to sample the RING AND POST pale ale. We were doing a lot of catch up so along the way we discussed: Tom Cruise in Cocktail; Bluesfest beers; Jeff Epstein, New York Financier; John's garden; elaborate breakfast in commercials and TV shows; 2000s indie as "classic rock"; Henry Ford; a Santa-themed bar; "Preds in the City"; and David Cronenberg's "Fast Company".We've been taking it easy this summer but expect us to record something craft-related before the month wraps.Timestamps:04:58 Beer#1 (AL'S CASK ALE)29:56 Beer#2 (TRAIL BLAZER)39:11 Beer#3 (RING AND POST)0:09:35 Wrap up, final scores, and conclusionCredits:https://cestwhat.com/https://drinkrally.ca/https://shophendersonbrewing.com/Intro and closing song: "Drink Beer (Till the Day That I Die)" by Dazie Mae (www.daziemae.com)Artwork: IG @nartsattack (www.natalierivet.com)

Surf's up! This week on Domestic Pints ONLY, we sample a new mixed BIG SURF variety pack of White Claw Hard Seltzer. This box consists of three flavours: tropical punch; strawberry kiwi twist; and mango passionfruit splash. While some of our experiences with White Claw haven't been the best, this episode was an outlier. Along the way we chatted about: Steve Perry; Alex Jones; eating kiwis with the skin on; heat waves; milkbags; and how no one cares about "yuzu" anymore.Next episode will likely be another Ontario craft mixed pack. Or another seltzer lineup if we're too lazy to plan a proper follow up. Our output has been slow this summer, but expect another episode to come in the next few weeks.Timestamps:09:22 Seltzer #1 (TROPICAL PUNCH)16:37 Seltzer #2 (STRAWBERRY KIWI TWIST)32:44 Seltzer #3 (MANGO PASSIONFRUIT SPLASH) 42:58 Wrap up, final scores, DSPN, and conclusionCredits:Music by Karl Casey @ White Bat Audio (The Saga)Artwork: IG @natalierivetartist (www.natalierivet.com)

On the twenty ninth edition of the bonus 'COLD SHOTS' series, John discusses the flagship porter from Collective Arts: STRANGER THAN FICTION.

This week on Domestic Pints ONLY, we return to Ottawa to cover a popular east-end brewery: Orleans Brewing Company. As always, we discuss a bit about the brewery before profiling the beers, starting with the Kolsch Me Outside ale, followed by the smoky sweet Maple Cabin ale, and wrapping up with the Billy Bob Bison APA. Along the way we talk: pre-amalgamation Ottawa, greedy garage sales, Tom "serving cunt", Hacker's visit to Alberta, underrated Waterton, planetariums, and old Family Guy.Next week we cover some new seltzers.Timestamps:054:58 Beer#1 (KOLSCH ME OUTSIDE)23:55 Beer#2 (MAPLE CABIN)34:05 Beer#3 (BILLY BOB BISON)59:55 Wrap up, final scores, and conclusion01:08:45 Sports Talk (DSPN)Credits:https://orleansbrewing.com/Intro and closing song: "Drink Beer (Till the Day That I Die)" by Dazie Mae (www.daziemae.com)Artwork: IG @nartsattack (www.natalierivet.com)

On the way back from a cottage weekend in beautiful Quebec, John picked up a special box of artisan releases by the popular microbrasserie Boréale . This week on Domestic Pints ONLY we discuss the brewery and then run through the box contents: the light ISA Des Chutes, the hoppy Pale Ale Des Bois, the honey sweet double Blanche Du Lac, and wrap things up with the "puffin beer", the IPA des Côtes. Joining us for the ride, for the first time, is friend of the show AUSTIN. Along the way we chat about: weird taste in glasses; Cabella hunting games; Motorace USA; urban fishing; the Pepsi Taste Challenge; and $10 breakfast at the strip club.Nous ne sommes pas fini! After sampling the first half of the UNIBROUE sample pack, this week John and Tom returned to go through the rest of the lineup. Starting with the lighter P'TITE MAUDITE variant, followed by DON DE DIEU, and the iconic LA FIN DU MONDE. Along the way we discussed: Parlez-Moi, Tom's visit to the Alberta Craft Beer Fest, John's Montreal hockey trip, finding vintage smut at flea markets, weird IG reels algorithm, and we mention getting featured on Feedspot's top Canadian Beer Podcasts (for real!).Next week we head to Ottawa for a new craft lineup!Timestamps:05:42 Beer#1 (ISA DES CHUTES)15:42 Beer#2 (PALE ALE DES BOIS)24:28 Beer#3 (DOUBLE BLANCHE DU LAC)41:39 Beer#4 (IPA DES COTES)01:01:247Wrap up, final scores, and conclusionCredits:https://www.boreale.com/produits/serie-artisan/Intro and closing song: "Drink Beer (Till the Day That I Die)" by Dazie Mae (www.daziemae.com)Artwork: IG @nartsattack (www.natalierivet.com)

It was the holiday long weekend, so we were able to get the gang together for a special GOOD FRIDAY edition of our Sunday Seltzer series. Joining us again this week was "Seltzer Queen" Teris! You may have seen Instagram ads for a new Coors Seltzer "mixable" pack, so we got around to sampling the box, which consists of: LEMONADE, STRAWBERRY BLISS, and PEACH DREAM. And yes, as the name suggests we made sure to sample each possible combination of these beverages. Along the way we chattered about: frozen canned juice mix; Katy Perry in space; and beaver pee.Next week we will return with a Quebec craft lineup.Timestamps:07:55 Seltzer #1 (LEMONADE)16:02 Seltzer #2 (STRAWBERRY BLISS)26:05 Seltzer #3 (PEACH DREAM) 44:56 Wrap up, final scores, and conclusionCredits:Music by Karl Casey @ White Bat Audio (The Saga)Artwork: IG @natalierivetartist (www.natalierivet.com)

You thought we were done with Founders Original? Think again. This week we return by sampling the FOUNDERS ORIGINAL VARIETY BOX. We omitted the Tequila Paloma since it was covered in our previous episode, but we discusses the other drinks in the pack: the bourbon sour, the vodka mule, and the gin bramble. Along the way we talked about: the word "effervescent"; Indian street food; Nintendo Switch 2; Steve Miller Band; Oscar Robertson; spirits our dads' drank; and Tom's gin mishaps. We will return next week with a brand new seltzer lineup!
