I can't think of any other Ontario crafts without some form of date code. LOL Plenty of Ontario crafts WITHOUT any form of date codes... The most loved of them all - Bellwoods - doesn't use date codes!!!! Others I've had of late without dates: 5 Paddles, Little Beasts Brewing, Town Brewery, Blood B...

They had a platform?
Wow, and the whole time I assumed Drug Fraud was just making shit up as he went along ...

If that is how you judge your drinking habits, you live a sad life. Also I am an accountant. You are the reason I hate the stereotype that is associated with our profession. Just to make sure you're right about me I googled the definition of accountant. Here's what I found: "drives 80 Km on a ...

Desperation? or a brilliant read of his base/supporters?

never thought I would ever see a "Conservative" Party promise something so interventionist/socialist/anti-free market.

I rarely, if ever, look at beer reviews beyond comments that people make on this website, and I certainly don't use Untapped. Having said that, I don't read too much in to this. The differences in these overall averages are not huge, and I think there are a lot of things that could affect and skew ...

IMO Komes, a hefty, sumptuous 9% Baltic Porter, is really great value at $3.65 for 500ml currently. Interesting you bring this up. Being an anal accountant I keep track of my "inventory" in a spreadsheet. One of the data points is a calculation of cost/ml of alcohol (i.e. a $5 10% beer is...

...Because it's the result of 30ish years of underinvestment in hydro infrastructure.

Unless there's a proposal to cut the cost of hydro generation, which the conservatives do not have, what's the point? Dougie is going to fire the CEO and save a million bucks a year*. Then he's going to hire another CEO and pay her/him <$100K to stay off the sunshine list**. I'm not up on the costs...

As much as I hate the current system and would love to see beer/wine/spirits sold by private stores, I'd rather continue with the AGCO/LCBO status quo than have Drug Ford as premier.

Anyone notice price differences between the grocery stores and LCBO/TBS? The other day I bought some Side Launch Pale Ale and DAB (Dortmunder) - both 500ml - at Sobey's. I think I glanced at the prices below the cans before picking them up but didn't notice any price difference from the LCBO where ...

i think it depends on the store (i.e. how diligent they are in receiving the package on the system after they actually receive it) Its taken me anywhere from 3 to 5 business days after receiving the shipped notification email. current order placed May 13, ship notification May 15... received email ...

It's not always the store. I went I three days after I got a shipping notification once and my local spent 20 minutes searching in the back for it despite it not showing in their system. It arrived a few days later. you get 3 email notifications 1. order received 2. order shipped 3. order received ...
