Cigar City Florida Man Double IPA -Canned Dec 12 2020... begrudgingly purchased Oskar Blues Can-O-Bliss Double IPA - Canned Oct 2020.. pass :cry: This makes me think Oskar Blues is partially to blame for the embarrassingly stale product we get here. Begrudgingly purchased a 6 week old double ipa fr...

Anyone else think Bellwoods is out to lunch with their pricing these days? The latest releases for BOYD and Skeleton Key are $20/btl! That's still a 500ml bottle btw. I used to buy Bellwoods all the time but they've lost me with these crazy high prices for their barrel aged releases. Out to lunch f...

I missed out last week. Anyone in the K/W or Guelph area pick up more bottles then they need?

I have things to trade and whatnot.

Wouldn't mind a Brandy Rat Queen too, but not the priority.

Just realized we aren't getting Samichlaus this year. Bummer. Hope it returns in the future, as I only have a few bottles left. Same here, I think I’m down to my last two bottles I’ll generally drink an older vintage during Xmas eve day, and replace it with the current year to keep rotatiting the s...

Beard of Zeus is still available at the brewery. Just picked up a few myself.

My last Taru Ichi can went off like a rocket - lost about half of it. The Kizuna was alright - maybe a bit too citrus forward (I think Bim and Shaun came up with the recipe ages ago and that was Shaun's extent of it being brewed). Better to drink at room temperature. I found the Kizuna almost astri...

I picked up the Origins of Darkness mix pack at the new Toronto store last night. I tried the Almond Milk/Coffee variant and it was ... nothing special. Not a good balance as the coffee steamrolled over the other flavours. The Untappd reviews so far seem to reflect my experience. I cannot find this...

I fear all my Taru Ichi cans are infected...the last one I opened was a gusher and extremely tart, I had to pour it. The rest of my cans are taut. Pushing my thumb on the can has absolutely no give to it compared to cans I've aged 1+ years which clearly have less pressure built up inside. Oh no! GS...

Anyone know what's in Winter Flight Pack this year? https://www.lcbo.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/en/lcbo/taster-pack-16118296124-1/amsterdam-winter-flight-pack-17504#.X3Yfk2hKiUl There is now a photo with the listing. Thank you. It’s not Starke pilsner and Tempest, but I’ll pick up one for sure.

Innocente just announced their Wet Hop is out next week.

Had the Godspeed "Nana" recently, brewed with Japanese shichimi spices and was really impressed. Didn't know what to expect, and it turned out to be one of my favourite beers of this summer. It's pretty intense, all these woody spices. A second can awaits me. The chili peppers are certain...

Craig wrote:Really? What happened to NB's brewery?

Burlington brewery hasn’t made the retail stuff for years due to capacity. They had that joint brewery with Collective for years and when that fell through they ended up at Wellington.

S. St. Jeb wrote:I'm under the impression that Wellington does a fair bit of contract brewing. Perhaps that has helped the financial side to allow them to improve.

They make all of Nickelbrook’s retail offerings, for staters...
