Not all stubbies were retired so early. Labatt's with regards to some brands hung in there at least until '85-'86. Porter and Crystal were two such brands. Carlsberg and Carlsberg Lite, and Extra Stock Ale were also still available in stubbies.

I do, but do not have access to a copier. There are a couple of vintage images as well, and the resolution is not that great so I am not sure how well they would copy. Amazon does have a couple of private sellers with copies listed right now in the chance that you cannot find yours. Around the 18-20...

Though not listed as an IPA, Dragons Breath from Kingston Brewing Co. was perhaps my first experience with very hoppy beers. This would be when Hart was brewing it. I see now it is bewed by McCauslan. Not being much for over the top hops, I would have to say Bell's Two Hearted Ale, was my next, and ...

PaulV, you must be a man of many means if starting a micro brewery is low cost entry to you. A million would not get you very far in this buisness.

I happened to be on my way to Owen Sound on the weekend, and happened to notice a arrow sign along the highway near Blue Mountain that read "Pineapple beer is here". Not sure what the place was, obviously a restaurant/bar.

Interesting how the one house you picture in your video was torn down while the brewery was under the ownership of John Wiggins.

Milos Beer

Forgive me if I missed a post with regards to this. But do any of you know where this is being brewed? I find this very interesting indeed.

Had a Kozel, earlier when I got home, and now just finished a Schneider Wiesen Edel-Weisse. After a very long day on the road, I am now ready for a nap.

If Mr. Wiggin's was so darned concerned with the future of Creemore Springs, why the hell did he sell out in the first place? It would also seem that "if 2 houses" had already been torn down as PaulV states, under who's ownership did this take place.

Just sayin'
