For such a large brewery in Ontario, GLB makes it stupidly difficult to buy their beers direct, if you don't want a case of stuff. I don't think you can even just show up at the brewery to buy what you want anymore? Pretty sure you can get singles / mix and match etc if you go to the retail store n...
As far as I know, Revel and West Avenue are the best of the cideries out there, but I'm not as familiar with them as I am the breweries. Agreed. I personally find West Avenue more consistently good, but partly that is because Revel does a lot of interesting experimental stuff that are misses for me...
Tomorrow’s drops I'm probably just an old fogey but the idea of beer "drops" vs just calling them "releases" or "availability" or something similar drives me bonkers. :wink: Sorry lol, I don’t really disagree No worries. :) There are several other beer social media phr...

Our usual approach to it was to try an...
Well thanks for doing it this long either way! What are your options? Would some volunteers help at all? I can't code but would be happy to help with updates once it's set up. How much would you have to charge for the site to make it worthwhile? Have you looked into sponsors at all?
To be fair, its nearly impossible for breweries to survive selling one can at a time to untappd tickers... Having said that, it is odd to sell a special release in 4-packs when all regulars sell as singles. The opposite strategy would seem to make more sense. I think the sales trends at the LCBO pr...
