The Bar Towel

How many do you have in an average night? I usually have one with dinner each night and a few on a Fri/Sat, but I'm sometimes hard pressed to get through what I have without buying 6-12 of the seasonals/rare items.

This. I just happened to end up there with some people from work who wanted to go for a drink after an event.

I had them "liked" up until a couple days ago, I got really sick of the 10 or so inane, substanceless posts that their shill posts every day.

I had a pint of the Mill Gap cask last night, it was great. Left a bit before 10 though.

That's easy, they just drop it from the line-up.

As far as killing brands goes, it doesn't really bother me that much since I would rather a brewery produce a few really good consistent beers than a ton of beers that are really hit or miss in terms of quality. True, and I agree. I will be sad if the Sgt Major, Corporal Punishment and Stuart's don...

Apparently sir, you have never heard of micro carbonation or limes.

Thoughts please ladies & gents.... Since you asked, I have no idea who you're talking about, and since I don't get up to TO much, I'm not that concerned who it is. I also don't fault you for wanting to vent about some jerk-bag you keep bumping in to. However, if I was treated poorly in an estab...

Speaking of dark ale, the LCBO lists Corporal's Bitter Brown (aka Corporal Punishment) as discontinued: http://www.lcbo.ca/lcbo-ear/lcbo/produc ... mber=94383
Boo-urns.


edited to add: And Stuart's and Black Irish Plain Porter.

I've never even heard of this. Did I read this wrong, or have I broken a federal law when I bought from BC and AB home to ON with me? Not to mention the East Coast and Quebec.

I like the Muskoka Summer Weisse....I mean Hefe Weisse.......I mean the Autumn Wheat.......I mean........... I had it on Wed and I like it whatever they wanna call it, though it'd be easier on me if they'd just pick a name and stick to it. I was also very disappointed in the Waterloo wheat, I'm not...

I just finished a bottle, thought it was another good beer from Black Creek, but to me it seemed more bitter than others were describing it, about at the limit of what I'd enjoy. However, I'm not a fan of the hop-bomb kinda beers.

I'm not a lager fan, but I quite like the Upper Canada Dark. I buy it regularly since you never know if that imperial stout or whatever is going to go well with your dinner.

so what, we can special order a case of Delirium Tremens? As much as I wish that was true, I doubt that is the case. Would "LOVE" to be proven wrong. This again feels like 1 step forward 2 steps back for LCBO. Have you tried? You can submit a request for anything you want. As long as the ...

Future expansion? Why come up with your own recipes when you have ready-made and tested recipes? It would be too bad if Corporal Punishment was discontinued.
