Yes the...

As a 4 time Session attendee I have enjoyed them all and I look forward to next year. I agree it was crowded and the washroom situation was almost a literal #^%show . I have no idea about Artscape but they sound like a poor organization - I hope someone cut them a new one after the porta pottie fail...

Thanks Len, for the info and the recommendation.

What music is playing at your LCBO?

I can't say I have ever noticed before but tonight while picking up beer at LCBO 115 KING STREET SOUTH WATERLOO I enjoyed the dulcet tones of Doug and the Slugs!! 'Too Bad' from 1980's 'Cognac and Bologna’ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HzocrN1zUE8 The kids buying their Somersby weren't as enthused ...

Was there yesterday afternoon. They apparently opened Saturday and it has been slammed both days. They suggested a grand opening later in July. They had an admitted 45 min wait for food and not all beers were available yet. But what we did have was good. The Market Ale and the Boneshaker are great b...

I'm sorry but I find all these collaborations with musicians\celebrities and local DJ's (?) so gimmicky. Focus on the beer and not what celebrity wants to throw their name on a label. I think it's great personally. I imagine that it would help bring more exposure to craft beer, more exposure could ...
