Re: The Bellwoods Brewery Release Thread
For some reason I thought it was a proper sour, must have mixed it up with something else. Perhaps I'll skip it.

Re: The Bellwoods Brewery Release Thread
I love sours, so I'm always apt to buy whatever I see. I think I'll pick up a couple.

Re: New non-LCBO/TBS beer releases
Any opinions on Omerta? I believe it's been made a few times?

Re: Eataly in Toronto
If they had a in-house brewery like the NYC location, this would be great. I hope it materializes.

Re: Sours, Brett, Wild, and Saisons
He is pretty prolific in his production, so of course it isn't all great, but a surprising amount is. That said, I've not been into the offerings at the LCBO, but they've also arrived old. Either way, great bars if you ever get a chance. There are 3 in Copenhagen and a 4th in the works which is a co...

Re: Sours, Brett, Wild, and Saisons
I'll check out Le Saint Bock and follow developments with Exchange.
It was actually a few trips to Copenhagen and trips to Mikkeller bars that really got me into sours.

Re: Sours, Brett, Wild, and Saisons
I'm planning a trip to VT and will stop by Dunham on my return. Are there any Quebec retailers which stocks one-off Quebec releases that you recommend (in Montreal, or near Ottawa)? Belgian - thanks for the feedback. I noticed you've posted about Stone City a few times, they have a Brett/Farmhouse r...

Re: Sours, Brett, Wild, and Saisons
Thanks for the replies. Do you think the market in Ontario just isn't there yet? I lived in NY for awhile, and I know the market is just beginning to shift there over the last couple years with 3 or 4 Belgian centric breweries opening.

I don't believe there is anyone specializing in Belgian styles, is there (like Allagash or New Belgium do in the USA)? I think Bellwoods stands out at the forefront o...
