The Heart and thistle has alright food, but good beer. Never been to the gastropub in the valley, but have been meaning to take a drive down. I also like Rogue's roost here, don't hear much about it, but it's good.

I think Brew Dog is amazing, but back on topic... Apparently the NSLC won't carry anything over 12%. This is ridiculous because they will carry Bacardi 151 (75%), and I will do a whole lot more damage if I drink that whole thing. This is just a closed ming approach that allows them to cut corners wh...

Hey,

I'm down in Halifax, but really want to get my hands on some of the great craft beers in Ontario. I had heard that you can't ship across provincial borders. Is that true, and if so, anyone have any suggestions on how I can get these beers?b
