The Bar Towel

We'll be brewing a seasonal every 3 weeks now and switching over our seasonals on the equinoxes (is that a word?), so you should still be in time.

Should be sometime in mid-April. We wanted to release this a bit sooner, but we needed our new tanks to come in before we could brew anymore seasonals...this is also why our BogWater sold out so darn fast. With our first new tank in now and 3 more arriving Monday, we figured we could get away with s...

We brewed the first batch on Saturday, and we're pretty excited about it. We're trying to get our seasonals into the LCBO, but it is very difficult for a small brewer like us to get seasonals into the LCBO quickly - it needs to be submitted for approval about a year in advance and we decided to make...

Breweries can set different prices for licensees vs. retail but the price has to be set with the LCBO, meaning you can't legally sell a keg to one restaurant for $250 and then charge another $275. There is also an additional (and hidden) tax charged to retail customers - licensees pay only the GST, ...

I don't know how to delete threads, that's why I asked for help!

OOPS! This was supposed to be a reply in the topic "Returning beer to the LCBO"

Don't know how that happened. Or how to fix it for that matter. Cass? Clow?

Breweries are allowed to proved customers with sample product. They also can test the off-beer if they get it from you, which makes it more valuable from a learning perspectiveDepending on where you are and the size of the brewery it might not always be feasible, but it is possible.

Another option is to call the brewery directly. If they are concerned about quality I'm sure they will be prompt, courteous and quite thankful that you let them know about the issue.

I'm interested!

We'll just be starting it this weekend, so we'll have to wait and see...certainly more than we would if we didn't do this though. We also encourage customers to reuse the bottles themselves, for salad dressing, maple syrop, homebrewing, etc. and many more keep them as keepsakes, but we do get a heal...

That's what they said about our BogWater, too!

We've developed a different alternative to the Beer Store, seeing as they still refuse to give us our bottles back! I think you'll agree this is far superior from a social benefit perspective... http://www.facebook.com/wall.php?id=41816841569#/event.php?eid=41816841569 http://centretownnewsonline.ca...

I'm so there! Jason Ellesmere from Cameron's told me he'll be there in spirit, too, and its close to Haloween, so that should be a little creepy. I told him his spirit better be payin' for my spirits!

yeah, I've already come and gone! Thanks for posting it for me!

I'm in Toronto on Aug 20 (Thursday), so give me a call on my cell if you'd like to meet casually to learn more about us and what we're looking for.
