The Bar Towel

I thought it was a great event by and large. I mean it's hard to top the roof deck in beautiful sunshine of the last Brauhaus event, but I think the beer quality was higher this time. My two favourites were the Azaroth Double IPA and the Saison du Printemps Brett Saison. After that, the Mangose Gos...

I'm heading there today before I go to the People's Pint event - keep reading good things about the Saison so I'm excited to try it. Thanks. I'll be at the People's Pint event so hopefully I'll see you there. I think we're a pretty good warm up for amateur brew since we're still only semi-pro! :D I...

Yes - unfortunately. It wasn't offensive or anything like that, just underwhelming.

had the apocalypso at bellwoods tonight (albeit on draft) and wasn't super impressed The Le Trou de Diable stuff that is truly amazing is rare as hen's teeth, but now I've sampled some of those I have a hint of sentimental respect for their regular offerings. The hype doesn't always help this brewe...

Yup. Recently we asked to change from 750ml to 500ml and were declined. So more high priced 750's from us it will be. But respectfully sir, I don't buy those from you. You're competing with Saison Dupont and St. Bernardus Abt 12 in well-priced 750mls. What a bunch of tossery that is keeping Ontaria...

Probably not. Long Dark Voyage to Uranus was priced at the same amount and it went very quickly. Also, I don't think that Girl Pants is as mediocre as you think it is. Should be interesting. I actually didn't say Girl Pants is mediocre. I've tried two distinctly different versions of it in this las...

new PRINCESS WEARS GIRL PANTS LCBO 419762 | 473 mL can Price: $ 5.25 I wonder if that's a new highest price point for a tall boy can at the LCBO. I also wonder what this will taste like. I had two rather different versions of it on tap in the last year and change. One was meh and the most recent on...

Ditto at 12:45.

I went yesterday (Monday) around 11am and they still had some bottles left - look to be sold out now, though.

what the.. it's already expired?! edit: you sure that's not the brewed on date? would make a lot more sense from SN's webpage: "All Sierra Nevada beer is dated when packaged. This code represents the production date and can be found on all our bottles, cartons and kegs." I think it says o...

Yay - I can interact!
