Re: Stone Brewing - Thoughts Nowadays?

I just finished an Arrogant Bastard can. It was almost 3 months old, which in the States is the hardline best before date. Here, Greg has extended the shelf life to one year.

Re: General LCBO Debate & Discussion Thread

Or maybe we've reassessed our costs and realized the beer cost us more than we originally thought. Also, many LCBOs at this time of year will put the beer on clearance. Guess who eats that clearance price? We do. Happy to hear you drink our cans however I'm sad to hear you think we're purposely try...

Re: LCBO Spring Craft Beer Release 2016

I like the Lindemans Cuvee Rene much more than the Boon Mariage Parfait Gueuze and the St. Louis Fond Tradition. It's not in the same class as Cantillon or 3F, but for this price its a steal. Right now, Cuvee Rene is tart and refreshing, but is quite immature. I have 6 bottles in the cellar to age b...

St. Ambroise Oatmeal Stout

From Bayview Village LCBO. This tastes like a DMS bomb. It even overpowers the roast profile. Drainpour.
