Re: 2023 LCBO Summer Release

On the plus side I just drank a beautiful can of Superflux colour and shape picked up from the LCBO. Big tropical fruit flavours with a nice bitterness in the finish. A nice addition to the LCBO options. Out of curiosity, what was the canning date? My gf brought some back for me from BC a couple mo...

Re: New Arrivals at LCBO & TBS

Didn't St Andre disappear for some time? Or am I misremembering? I recall it used to be on tap at C'est What years ago. Lol I remember drinking it on tap there close to 20 years ago when dating my ex who lived at Church/Esplanade. It was my go-to before I even had a thought of what craft beer was. ...

Just received the email this morning that they're ready for pick-up; assuming you guys will see the same shortly if not already.

Re: Goose Island Black Friday & Bourbon County Stout

Anyone received an email in regards to being able to pick up their BCBS order yet? Still waiting. First year ordering so I'm not sure what the typical turnaround time is. No, not yet. I checked the last time I ordered BCBS online. In 2020 I ordered on Friday Nov. 27 and picked up my beer on Tuesday...

Agreed, had one on the weekend. Hated the first sip, enjoyed the second and then went back and forth till I finally dumped the last little bit left in my glass. :lol:

Re: Sourpalooza: hosted by Exchange Brewery, 2022 March 26

I like sours but find I drink far fewer these days. I tend to prefer wild fermented and aged or blended ones vs. kettle sours, which sometimes have an unpleasant one dimensional sourness. Either way though I don't think my enamel or heartburn could handle an entire festival of sour beers though, yi...

Also a pass.

Being an old school hip-hop fanatic, I loved going on the Fridays in years' past. Absolutely no interest in seeing Shaggy though. :lol:

I live pretty close to the Farm Boy in Etobicoke; when I was there last week, they had Town & Country Blonde Ale and Two Flags IPA. Those are the only two I've seen there and usually it's just the blonde ale. I hope they get Sunsplit at some point.

CBS is also at the Bloor/Royal York LCBO. Just picked up a couple on the way home from work tonight (sits right next to the KBS).

Re: Collective Arts

Anyone else try Hydro Thunder yet? It was released at the bottle shop last Saturday; collab DIPA with Twin Sails. I was so disappointed by it (especially since they made you buy four, otherwise, I would have just grabbed a couple to try out). Completely lacking carbonation, just syrupy flat boozines...
