Gee look, that's what I came here for. A cure all! http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/ottawa/stalwart-dr-feelgood-ipa-not-on-lcbo-shelves-1.4483078 Lookie here, Stonehammer, that should help with my little DIY project!. Oh, and what's this Amsterdam 3-Speed? Looks like a great solution to my commuting pr...

So, my wife and I played 'forgotten beer roulette' last night. As a home brewer, when I experiment with something big or different, I like to put a bottle aside for 'future me'. Well I have a bunch, mostly 5-7 years old that were not only forgotten in a corner, but my crude labels fell off. What cou...

I hope all the new breweries succeed, but history and logic says they won't. Yeah, I feel bad for those guys who sold everything to open that new brewery if the gist is correct and they're going to open in a saturated market. It would also go poorly for this company who's slated to open here in Lon...

The top comments on the article read almost like a parody of sullen, knee-jerk conservatives. Reminiscent of the editorial cartoonist "Kelly" from The Onion: https://www.theonion.com/c/editorial-cartoon I feel as if people don't even know what they're referring to anymore when they call p...

And now WVRST is also opening one in Union Station! I think this is great news, not only as I frequent Union Station from time to time and there is a dearth of places for a drink. (I know CW etc. is close by) A positive step for a public hub like Union where the new hospitality options won't be the...

For me, time of day seems to have an effect on my enjoyment of a beer. On occasions when I get home from work around 17:30 - 18:00 and have a beer, it almost doesn't matter what it is - it always seems to taste great. With that "disclaimer"....I just finished a Paulaner Oktoberfest Bier. ...

Does anybody know what is happening with them? They appear dead to the internet. I almost never get to this corner of town, so have only visited maybe a half dozen times when they were just ramping up. A friend who lives by mentioned they are closed and lamented the loss to the area. They were real ...

The Chernobyl wild berry lager got glowing reviews.

The ten dollar per pint barrier is looming in downtown Toronto. Several places, I have found, are twisting themselves into contortions to avoid it (shrinking glassware, anyone?) But I think it is coming soon. You're right, the bastards cant hide it. 8) Do the math and some bars charge the per-pint ...

I've had some co-workers go at lunch and said it was some of the worst food they've had in a while. The pulled pork was super dry and beer is quite expensive for having their own taps. Bummed as I had high hopes for this place. I sure hope they didn't repeat the mistake they made at harbourfront an...

Great topic! I've thought about this a bit in the last while too. Here are some random inputs. I still love my IPA's and hoppy beers, but have largely gravitated to brighter and dryer styles. I definitely prefer a great aroma (late hop) over a bitter, which I used to prefer and before that preferred...

What if they aged it more? Kellerbier is meant to be well-aged, I wonder how the cans would hold up if I kept a few for half a year. I brew my own Kellerbier in Feb/March and lager it in kegs until summer. I add some oak chips, as this style was historically kept in oak casks. I lager at basement t...

I am surprised not so see any Octoberfest beers from local brewers on offer at my local LCBO. I would expect at least a few to be out by now. I fear the LCBO will go straight from summer releases to it's shelves being polluted with pumpkin spice. Has anybody seen any local offerings? Could it be tha...

I had their Kellerbier at Bar Hop last night. I was a little disappointed. I found it too hoppy and heavy bodied for the style. Or perhaps just the wrong hops. I hope they continue to tune this one up. It's a beer I would like to enjoy and it follows their stated goal of making nice modest styles of...

I have seen this discussed here before, I might have even participated, but a search didn't seem to work. Personally, I'm not a big fan of adulterated beer, but I do know there are beer based cocktail recipes out there, and they can't all be bad... Many years back I was served a Duval and gin concoc...
