The Bar Towel

Ya, I also just picked up a 6er of Trois Pistoles already aged just shy of a year (production date: Jan 2006) I was very happy to find this as I've been wanting to cellar Trois Pistoles for awhile now. I never got very far! My only hesitation was that I've read the corked, 750ml bottles age better. ...

That is so awesome! so awesome...

For anyone whos interested in the DFH 90 Min but would like to trade on a smaller scale, I have a couple bottles in the cellar Ill put up.
Drop me a beer mail.

Hello Bters. I have been studying-seeing Italy for a month. While I hate to leave I am more than anxious to return home. Beer here is expensive, and (with a few German import exceptions) sparse. I miss the Toronto scene (didnt know it was possible) and CANT WAIT to return to all our beer bars to mak...

Jon, where are you? I am also in Italy, studying in Tuscany for the summer. I have only 2 weeks left. Id be curious to know where you are-have been. Drop me a message if you can.

Still pretty hit and miss in my opinion, but I won't complain too much about this lineup. Not too bad, actually there are a few real good ones in there! I'm not upset, there's enough there to keep me happy until Winter Seasonals. Only thing is, we'll have to see how long they last and where/when the...

It's funny how everyone seems to pick up a bottle of the Middle Ages Wailing Wench their first time at Premier.... I wonder why that could be ?

On a completely unrelated note, I usually keep my bottle next to me when I sleep, and not in the cellar with the rest of them ...

Is anyone interested in trading? If so, send me a message. I don't have too extensive of a list but a few good ones from recent trips to Quebec and Premier.

I also have a couple bottles of the DFH 90 minute.

Beyond a handful of good imports at the LCBO and a small selection of good Ontario micros at the Beer Store, your best (and pretty much only) option is to hit up some of our great beer bars. Like others, I would agree VOLO is your best start. The other places are all good too, and each one offers a ...

I wouldn't say it was a 'great' spring release at all. I'd say it was more of an average LCBO release with a couple great beers. Also, I'm starting to see some repeats in these releases. As much as I liked the Asam Bock, (and Christofel Blond in upcoming release) I can't help but *partially* feel ri...

Last I heard he took a call to audition for the Blue Man Group...

They actually DID just axe the lager...give or take 3 months ago. Can't remember exactly when, but that one has been put to rest as well.

So doubt they'll bring back the ale...

I sent them a short email as well, just thanking them and telling them again of the great market response up here. I got a very kind and quick, almost within the hour, response from Claus Hagelman. Before trying their beers, DFH really impressed me. After trying a small handlful of their stuff (espe...

Wow, listen to you guys!!!

I can only imagine what kind of response the 90 minute would get?!?!?!

Someone should send the link of this forum to the LCBO people.
Everytime I sign on this post has doubled in size...

I was just thinking to myself the other day that Ontario needs another Munich-style Helles lager and another German style pils. What's the line homer uses when talking about the Designer Jean market: "These are the people who saw an overcrowded marketplace and said, 'Me, too!" Yes! Haha, ...
