Went to Summerhill today. They replenished. Get it while the getting is good.

They are sold out as of right now. Welp, so much for being able to buy some I guess. Do we have any idea if they'll show up in other locations? Aside from Queen's Quay, that is, which I assume will get some. repeat after me: 9000 bottles in ontario 5000 going to the GTA 9000 bottles in ontario 5000...

Ugh, that's what I'm afraid of. I want to grab a dozen, but I don't think I can make it to Summerhill until around 7 tonight. They are sold out as of right now.

Finally tried a bottle of the new Ghost Orchid. I was told that the only changes to the recipe were increased alcohol and more nelson in the dry hopping, but for whatever reason it has completely fallen flat for me. It's just uninteresting now. Someone I know who also had the first batch said it tas...

KBS has been added to LCBO site as product #491613 - $7.25/355ml bottle ... SOON! It's like the time they brought in 4D from Kuhnhenn. LCBO being weird again. Still have a few 4D kicking around, such a great beer. It's a shame it was only a one-off. "It sold out in a matter of days? Welp, bett...

Has anyone confirmed that Cafe Bastardo is at Summerhill?

Ghost Orchid is back in the bottle shops with its own label, has been reclassified as an IPA, and apparently has an updated recipe. I hope it's as good as the first batch that went out.

Anyone try grandmas boy yet? Is it as good as last year? It's excellent! I'd say very similar to the last batch but a touch better. I'm right there with you. I grabbed 4 bottles from Hafis this weekend and I too think it's better than the last batch. The guy who was manning the bottle shop told me ...

The dark sour came out really well. Very light bodied, a bit roasty, and crushable with some subtle stouty notes coming through from the 3MTM cherries. Need more straight up sours from Bellwoods.

Well that was unexpected. That price is amazing.

If a brewer can convince me they will make more money if I pay cash at the LCBO vs. pay AMEX at their bottleshop....I'll never complain about it again. I know AMEX is more (sometimes much more) expensive to merchants, but I really don't give a hoot. Many small guys Do accept it...so some brewery, p...

Maybe they forget that profit margins on craft beer are usually razor thin, especially when considering barrel aged products. It's pretty obvious when a brewery is doing something exploitative or abusive with their pricing *cough*Three Floyds*cough* and Bellwoods does not appear to be showing any of...

gouged by AMEX too? AMEX is a very expensive card to accept, which is why we dont accept payment via AMEX Not only is Amex more expensive to the retailer than the other major cards, they hold the funds 3 days. Whereas the retailer gets the money from Visa/Mastercard in their bank account overnight!...
