Don't worry Dogfishhead, most of the Beer Markt customers are probaly Coors Light, Corona and Heineken drinkers. They don't really depend on beer geeks like us to make a big buck.

Just a thought... Hopefully you are considering the fact that a standard weizen glass is about 500ml. So I guess any bottle size close to that would work out nicely.

I have to agree with Mississauga Matt regarding Fuller's brews. You simply cannot put this brewery down. I find most of their beers quite good and above many other from UK, and their "1845" shooting to the UK top brews. Fuller ESB is even a very good representation of the ESB category.

Anyone knows where Fuller ESB can be found? For me this is the highlight of the fall release.

Hello Peter, It would help if you guys would add some variety on the Rogue products you bring for LCBO. We could try something new every now and then. I remember having the I2PA in Portland last year and I was wondering - what's wrong with this one ? Instead we get Dead Guy Ale every year which is -...

Thanks for the info. I'll get the Kriek in LCBO when it's released. Do you have a price for frambozen yet?

Since probably La Terrible is not available on draft I would definitely vote for Trois Pistoles.

Yesterday I tried mu first bottle of XO and I found it to be very nice. You can certainly taste the cognac and I think it's quite a nice twist to a good beer.

I'm sorry Perry and Greg. I obviously misunderstood Perry's comment. And thanks to Howard for clarifying the date code for us. <font size=-1>[ This Message was edited by: Manul on 2002-11-11 11:08 ]</font> <font size=-1>[ This Message was edited by: Manul on 2002-11-11 11:09 ]</font>

I think you are missing the point here Perry. No one is disputing the quality of Creemore but rather the way LCBO handles non-pasteurized products. And by the way Howard one reason sometimes I'm reticent to buy Creemore is because there is no clear production or expiry date on the bottle (maybe I'm ...

Has anyone else tried this? I opened a bottle yesterday and just loved it. It think it's at least at the same level with Aventinus. As far as I'm concerned this is going to be my winter beer.
