Wow great looking release (with the odd stinker tossed in there).

Looks like I'll be spending a good chunk of my Christmas bonus at the lick bow.

Great event. I had about 5 'loons in quick succession. Highlight for me was actually the Zwanze. Very unique finish and one of the best beers I've ever had. The 25th anniversary barlywine was a big hit with my group and I really enjoyed the bellwoods offerings as well. Wish I had more time and money...

Feel blessed and honored to be one of the chosen F5 stampers to get through on this lol.

I had a friend from Detroit spamming F5 from 11:58 on and he didn't even get through. What a stir a $20.00 5oz pour of beer causes these days!

This rule has been broken at just about every beer event I've been to. Why do they chose to enforce it now and WHAT IS THE BENEFIT?

We'd gladly sell more beer North of Eglinton if anyone would have us. Tough market for sure. Much simpler to focus on D/T and east/west Toronto. Curious - what are generally the reasons? Lack of knowledge of craft? Cost? Bought taps? Bought taps are every where, North or South of Bloor, so I don't ...

Player 1 - I highly recommend this place!! It's a full retro arcade where every machine is open play (no money needed), and the beer list is great and reasonably priced. They also have console video games at the bar (NES, Xbox one, Playstation 4 etc). http://player1orlando.com/ Noted! If I ever get...

Returned from Orlando and I didn't do alot of beer hunting, but I made a couple stops: Redlight Redlight - highly reccomend on BeerAdvocate. The selection is VERY good, but the prices are INCREDIBLY high compared to what you find even in downtown toronto. I went though the whole bottle list comparin...

I've been wondering about this for years. Toronto doesn't stop at Bloor. No but it does at Eglinton. :wink: haha! So true.. That being said though, even around Yonge/Eg there isnt that much choice. But I'm tellin ya guys, there is literally NOTHING up here, unless one of the obscure korean bars has...

No beer in No-Yo

What's the deal with North York? Fuck all craft beer bars up here.

I've lived Younge/sheppard for over a year now and there is not a proper place to get a decent pint within a 10k radius.

It would be a great investment for a budding restauranteur.
