Re: Nickel Brook Brewing

Nickel Brook has re-branded their No Bad Daze Easy Going Lager to simply Easy Going Lager. Hmmmm. Can't think of why. Turns out it isn't re-branding, but a replacement. "Please note that this new brew will be replacing our "No Bad Daze - Easy-Goin' Lager". You can still purchase No B...

I'm not much into Bourbon, but this might be interesting for those who are.

Re: Henderson Brewing Co

I like this brewery, have stopped in two or three times and have ordered on-line as well. If you know anything about them, you know they partnered with Rush and have made several Rush-branded beers, as well as other merch. I think they had a Rush "day" last summer and are doing that again....

Re: Lot 41 - Delta Marriott Pearson Airport

Re: Greg Clow to close Canadian Beer News

I hope this site becomes active again soon. Aside from The Bar Towel, it was my main source of information to know what was going on in the industry.

Re: Recruiting back to the Bar Towel

I know it doesn't seem like much, but the activity on the forum thus far in 2024 puts us on pace for the most activity since 2018. Woo! Keep it up! There's been a lot of good discussion. Nice to see. I am particularly intrigued by how much traction the "Non-Alcoholic Beer" thread has got ...

Re: Breweries closing and/or restructuring and/or bought out

When did they rebrand? I swear I just bought some of that Highlander Smoked Porter the other day. Indeed it's currently listed in the LCBO right now. It is a little confusing. Here's a couple of items to help explain. Highlander Brew Co. Rebranding as South River Brewing (2020 November 13) United C...
