[ I have to agree on most points. I don't mind the busy 6 pack. I like that you find new things each time. However a website is a big must IMO. It really connects the customer to the product in this day and age. I would also suggest getting some hats, shirts, sweaters, pint glasses etc. in producti...

Hey Vet---Thanks for the comments...I guess I should change the ratebeer description at 18 IBUs.... I do take pride in making this beer as good as I can. I have ADD so being down to the less than 1% tweaking (which I am) is not normal for me - It is way more balanced than the first bottle edition.....

I am really impressed with this beer. It is well balanced and punches well above its 30 IBU weight. Keep up the good work, I think you're really nailed the recipe. As a packaging graphics dude, I'd like to point out (to certain other ontario brewers especially) that the quality of printing on both t...

I am drinking one (my first) as I write this. First impressions: Almost no head or carbonation evident on pouring. The colour was on the lighter side than what I had anticipated, but it is quite opaque, and it is obviously unfiltered. Found the lack of head alarming, but my fears were allayed somewh...

I have never tasted a St Peter's beer I didn't love. I had the Ruby Red and the IPA last night and both were excellent. Peter, if you ever decide to do a consignment order on any of their product count me in. (and I'd love to see the Sam Smith IPA as well) I wait patiently every year for the Samuel ...

After speaking with Urbain of De Struise yesterday, we can confirm that their beers will be coming to Ontario soon. Pannepot Grand Reserva 2005 was delayed by some labeling issues and it should on its way next week. Black Albert will be bottled in late April, R+R hopes to have it here in early June...

Has anyone seen it listed on their website? I have seen no clue of it, nor even a hint of the winter warmers release. Please don't suggest I ask a KGBO store clerk if they have it, it's like talking to a tree (unless you happen to be in his kinesiology class or have a C-cup or better). You'd be bett...

I can buy into your reasoning but to recycle this guy as a Liberal...it's mind boggling...a solid contender for the leadership race even more inane...did everyone forget Rae Days so soon? But...he does fit right in with the eclectic Liberal mold. Ask any of the 40% of MOE staff who lost their jobs ...

Re: Samuel Smith
We made a Samuel Smith offer last year but it didn't pan out so we're putting it back on the front burner now. We'll be offerring the following which will be available in about 6 weeks time: IMPERIAL STOUT 24 X 355ml NUT BROWN ALE 24 X 355ml OATMEAL STOUT 24 X 355ml TADDY PORTER 24 X 355ml PALE ALE...

What is in the Sinha pack? A Sinha Stout, a Sinha Lager, and a glass. I haven't seen one myself yet, but I've heard that the glass is very nice. I bought a Sinha gift pack, and the glass is nothing to write home about. Its a standard tulip with a Sinha logo poorly screen printed on it. The lager wa...
