Peter Lopaty

A sad farewell to a man who was instrumental in changing Ontario's craft beer landscape. Without Peter’s passion, knowledge, dedication and contribution, our beer scene would be way less interesting.

Join us in raising a glass of something really good to Peter Lopaty of Esprit.

RIP Peter

Blame the low Canadian dollar for the increase. Samichlaus is still a bargain here though compared to other places in North America :)

We have applied with the Cuvee Van De Keizer Blauw every year since it was last here, but the LCBO has turned us down every time! It sold very well so we are not quite sure why it was turned down.

Re: Becoming an agent

To be perfectly honest, it is easy throw the entire blame onto the LCBO's shoulders - God knows there are practices and ways that have been forced upon them. They also happen to have some very hard working, passionate and well intended people across the entire organization but the rules are there to...
