Re: Georgetown Craft Beer Festival Sept 17/2016
The Georgetown festival was a great success. They had a full capacity sell out of 5000 people, despite the slow steady rain all day. It was a great party atmosphere, more like a town social event that happened to have beer, food and music. Had a great time talking to customers from work that i knew,...

I found a couple articles online, it...

Re: Block Three Brewing St. Jacob's
will do, thanks for the suggestion!Bobsy wrote:I visited Block 3 last week. I'd recommend buying more of the imperial stout, maybe at the expense of a bottle of the pale ale or raspberry ginger. All the beers I had from them were good, but the Loneliness was definitely the pick of the bunch.

Re: LCBO recalls exploding cans of Amsterdam beer
last year i made my own blood orange radler by mixing half lager and half san pellegrino blood orange beverage. turned out good, and that way you can use a good quality beer base. also can add an ounce of vodka to fortify it back up to 5%

Re: LCBO recalls exploding cans of Amsterdam beer
why would they explode, are they infected? it says they refermented, but they wouldnt have much yeast in them to begin with would they, as it's part beer and part soda?

Re: New Arrivals at LCBO & TBS
aside from the stone's (which no stores near me have yet), it feels like a bit of a lull right now in the lcbo beer dept. aside from replenishing some IPA's for fridge stock, there's not much interesting to warrant a trip to the store
