Vancouver, Breweries, and Beer!
Vancouver Breweries...yes, despite the fact that I (Lynn) am not a beer drinker, reading about the specialty microbreweries in Western Canada and the process used, even my interest was peaked! (Especially when I found out there is such a thing as Chocolate Beer!)
Of course, 5 days in Vancouver was not nearly enough, and packing in sight-seeing, wineries and time enjoying the Drink Guy's wonderful family out there, left us choosing one brewery to tour, for this trip anyway!
Our choice was Granville Island Brewing , a local establishment that advertises...

Facebook, Twitter!
Facebook profiles, Twitter streams, social media that allow a student to connect with a teacher or a coach, good idea or bad?
The question posed to the Bartender and the Life Coach in Episode 11 does not have a simple answer in our opinion.
As an adult in a position of influence, as a teacher or perhaps a coach, means that we carry a certain responsibility level to our students.
If we allow those students to connect with us through social media, are we helping or hindering the positive impact we are attempting to have?
Certain social medias, such as Twitter,...

Jesse James and Sandra Bullock are still the Hollywood buzz as we continue our great Drink Guy fans discussion in Episode 10 of TDG TV! This time with the help of a male fan we discuss whether Sandra has any fault in the affairs, and why did they not learn from Tiger Woods?
As the story goes Sandra Bullock apparently appears completely oblivious as her famous husband Jesse James, has his way with anyone and everyone who walks through the front door, apparently following the example of Tiger Woods!
Is it necessarily Sandra's fault for being away working all the time, while Jesse's...

Sandra Bullock and Jesse James are all the buzz, and in Episode 9 of The Drink Guy TV, the Bartender and the Life Coach enlist the assistance of some Drink Guy fans to discuss this ongoing Hollywood story.
As most of you know, the recent story that has taken Hollywood by storm is the situation between Sandra Bullock, Jesse James, and marriage infidelity. The alleged affair took place between Jesse James and Michelle McGee, although it seems that more mistresses are coming out of the woodwork.
Following a well deserved Oscar win on the part of Sandra Bullock, and a speech that brought...

The Bartender and the Life Coach are back, this time dealing with the question of how to handle the issue of alcohol within a relationship.
Not the standard situation of alcohol abuse, but rather the query of how to deal with a situation where one partner has emotional issues tied to alcohol abuse from childhood, and makes demands on a partner because of this.
In this Episode of The Drink Guy TV, the Bartender and the Life Coach have been asked by a young man who wants to enjoy a successful relationship but is struggling with the demands of his significant other.
The young man in...

The Bartender and the Life Coach are back, this time dealing with the question of how to handle the changing dynamics of a long term friendship. Once again with our special guest Amber, we now delve into a personal situation she is dealing with...a friendship relationship that has changed in a way that Amber is not sure how to deal with.
Our entire lives revolve around the relationships that we create with the people around us, from family and friendships to casual acquaintances and vocational (especially as a bartender and a life coach!) connections. How we "manage" these relationships...

The bartender and the life coach deal with the question of cyberstalking! This question arrived via email, and brings up many issues, both moral, ethical and legal...we do believe it warrants a follow up post with a more in depth answer, but the bartender and the life coach kick off the conversation in Episode 6 of TDG TV.
Cyberstalking is certainly a concept that goes hand in hand with technology, and a concept that has become quite a concern. There are many levels to consider, from the simplicity of a significant other accidently finding your email open and reading a message or two,...

The 2010 Winter Olympic Games wrapped up last night in Vancouver amidst much pomp and circumstance. The excitement and enthusiasm was high, but these Olympic games were not without their controversy. A question was posed to our Bartender and to our Life Coach via our Facebook Fan Page, and a request for a "signature Glenn cocktail" to mark the occasion...thus Episode 5 was born!
The host country of Canada did "own the podium" in regards to record breaking Olympic Gold medal achievement, and so the signature cocktail Twenty Ten Gold was born. Our guest on the episode, Amber, truly...

Moving on! Our Bartender Glenn serves up a nice glass of white wine, a 20 Bees Unoaked Chardonnay, to our Life Coach Lynn while discussing the next question from our "Don't Cry in Your Beer" forum. The question posed to our bartender revolves around the issue of disclosure in the early stages of courtship...not dissimilar to an earlier question posted on "Don't Cry in Your Beer" titled "How Many is Too Many".
This question deals more with the specifics of what level of disclosure should take place, and when. Our Bartender and our Life Coach once more enjoy the light-hearted, tongue...
