Re: Collective Arts

A re-focus on quality may do them some good..... I think you are on to something. For a while now I've thought they should regroup to some of their core product, get it right and throw in some rotational seasonals and maybe the occasional collab. Every time I go to the LCBO I feel they have some ot...

Re: Barncat Artisan Ales, Cambridge

Brutal. One of the best breweries in Ontario/Canada. Gonna miss their stuff.

I remember visiting them early on in my craft journey and being completely mind-blasted. Sad beer day.

Re: Anyone get a beer advent calendar?

We did an exchange at work. 25 people each brought a beer and each person left with 25 different beers. We drink and share them daily in a chat. Been a good way to get people together.

Re: Ontario Craft Beer, Imports and Pumpkin Beers at the LCBO (Fall 2019)

I believe it needs to be aged in a LCBO warehouse prior to its release... Goes without saying. I'm pissed about Jai Alai. I know I can just drive to Buffalo if I really want some. But I don't always have that luxury. Aaaaaanyways, just hoping we see a decently fresh iteration of 90 Minute sometime ...

Re: Ontario Craft Beer, Imports and Pumpkin Beers at the LCBO (Fall 2019)

Anyone have any information on the DFH 90 Minute IPA that we were supposed to see? I know it's technically fall for another month, but as time goes on I'm starting to feel like it is not going to make its arrival.

From what I hear, this one is all over the place too. And I'm sure will be readily available at Liquid Arts festival next weekend!

Re: New Arrivals at LCBO & TBS

Pretty sure it's this one: http://www.lcbo.com/lcbo/product/great-lakes-brewery/561456 I got it at Queen & Coxwell, but it's pretty much all over. That's the one. It's the first 4-pack of short cans I can think of in the LCBO for GLB. It's just listed as "Great Lakes Brewery"............

Re: New Arrivals at LCBO & TBS

GLB's Meanwhile..Down In Moxee is drinking pretty darn juicy. Get it while it's still fresh. It's also well priced at $2.74 per can. Bought a four pack and fell in love. I think it's better than Octopus Wants To Fight. Anyone have a SKU # or anything? I can't find it in the system. Or......could ju...
