A little about 5th Line
Our beer
What does it mean to be a 5th liner?
“5th Liner” is a term created to make fun of our hockey skills. We have played the game with some very talented people, and competed at reasonably high levels, but we’re far from the cream of the crop, more like the trub in the boil kettle more often. But we have kept playing the game of hockey, at higher levels than we are really capable, because we love the competition, the grind, and the friendship. We have all been on teams where most everyone should play ahead of us. Even if we didn’t get to skate we would still love to be on the team, just because of our passion for the game and the team camaraderie. This is why we call ourselves 5th Liners. As long as we get that post game beer with our team, that’s one of the best parts of the experience.
Are you a 5th Liner as well?
