Beau's Home Delivery shut down by AGCO
This was posted recently on the Beau's Facebook, since it's ACGO related I figure it fits here: "Hey Everyone - We received some unfortunate news this afternoon. The AGCO, acting on a complaint by another brewery, informed Operation Come Home that they cannot purchase beer from our retail store...

Not sure whether to post this in the general LCBO discussion or here: I had a conversation with a woman at the Bramalea store about Great Lakes Winter Ale. She told me that none of the Brampton stores are getting any stock based on what the computer says. (Brampton stores don't show up) This seems ...

I was embarrassed to buy it. Seriously?? Who cares. I bought 5 today without thinking twice. The cashier actually seemed to think the bottle was pretty cool, he even showed it to the cashier on the other side of him. Maybe its just me, but as long as the beer is good, I couldnt care less about the ...

I believe the main factor for this difference is likely the time it sat around at the lcbo. For the last couple weeks i've been drinking Smashbomb bottled July 1st that was picked up at the brewery then straight in my fridge. It's been amazingly hoppy and delicious. Yesterday I got my first 6'er fro...

I'll have to fifth the diacetyl on the one. Reminds me alot of the trait i find in bottled dead elephant ale, but with a bit of light citrus. Will try not to drain pour, but won't be going for this again. The Fuller's Honeydew was actually the surprise of the night, liked that alot more than this or...

Going to be there Tuesday through Friday. First real visit to Montreal where I'll get to explore all around. Staying near DDC and have been compiling an extensive list of food and drink to make sure I take in. I've read Depanneur Peluso is likely my best bet for bottle purchases, but since i'm bussi...

Before the Mad Tom, the last time i've shopped in a beerstore for myself was to get some dusty Trois Pistol. More recently tho I went in to get a 24 of tankhouse for a friend, and I realized it was such a long time since i'd been in a walk-in store cause i was shocked to see their (be it small) sele...
