Re: GSU Pub - University of Toronto
Funny that this never came up in the thread for happy hour deals. I should have remembered. :o I was never a U of T student (OCA instead), but an alumni friend introduced me to this place years ago and I still visit regularly. Nobody has ever asked me for my credentials. I will say, that based on my...

Re: Booze in Toronto Parks - 2023 Pilot Program
I bet drunk squirrels are hilarious. Don't get me wrong. I'm all for squirrels enjoying a nice IPA or chardonnay while hunting for nuts. What I worry about is how those stupid signs will disorient them and they won't be able to find their nests. Also, more drinkers will probably mean less tokers, w...

Re: Breweries closing and/or restructuring and/or bought out
I'm glad to see that, after a brief disappearance, Maclean's seems to be back in production: their Pale Ale is on tap once again at my local (the Done Right Inn). It's a good beer and I hope it sticks around. I'm glad Done Right Inn is still open. I haven't been by there in a long while. I don't ge...

:roll: Red Herring
While I get the sincerity of what is being said, I really think the conversation should be more about putting stupid stuff in beer. https://www.cbc.ca/news/world/peanut-allergy-beer-1.7161997 And if it's about respect for people with allergies, then it's also time to pile onto brewers using lactose....

Re: The Gem on Dupont Closed
Minor correction: Davenport. I grew up in the area and although The Gem came after my time there, it was often a place of reunions with old friends from the area. I heard about the fire and feared this would be the outcome. They were an archetype of the perfect neighbourhood gathering spot. Sad to l...

Re: Breweries closing and/or restructuring and/or bought out
I never managed to try any Cassel beers. it does feel a bit weird having Ontario breweries open and close without having ever sampled their goods. I'm not sure I've even heard of Cassel. It makes me wonder if their outcome might have a bit to do with having been invisible to followers of the Ontari...

Re: What's Your Favourite Ontario West Coast IPA?
Peak to Peak is very good. Nice selection of hops. I am pleasantly impressed with Peak to Peak. It's a return to form for Collective that seems to have had some execution issues of late. I hope it's a sign of things to come from them. Except maybe on pricing. It feels a bit steep, but this must be ...

Re: Alcohol regulation changes
I seem to recall having to submit to a proctology exam at a Beer Store once, but that was just to return some empties.

Re: Non-Alcoholic Beer
I know it's just one case, but I have a friend who decided to give up drinking over a year ago. His normal potions were macro lagers. He is regularly trying different NA beers and reports that they all basically suck. He's a serious foodie, so if he can't find something that meets the taste baseline...

GLB Karmageddon.
*tries to channel Borat voice* - Is niaace!
Well balanced for a big beer. Oddly, the aroma has a hint of grilled meet. Not off putting, just weird.
