On the Big Screen – Who knew that a television series from 1966 would eventually lead to a hugely popular international movie franchise? Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation the fifth film in this current series returns this weekend. And Tom Cruise returns as head-spy Ethan Hunt, but really Tom Cruise just plays Tom Cruise at this stage in his career. Is it even necessary to get into the plot? We think not – just expect more motorcycles, glamorous women, outrageous stunts, techie shit and bombs – lots and lots of bombs. You got a problem with that?

OUR WEEKEND BEER PICK

With summer now upon us and temperatures rising we’re dialing things back at the ACB compound and Victory has brewed an authentic German-style lager that we’ve been hitting a lot lately. Victory’s Helles Lager is 4.8% ABV pleaser that’s a nice take on a style that more and more brewers have been returning to lately.
