Re: 2009 Utopias in original box with Riedel glass in case and Jim Koch letter , bottle 03389

I don't get all the hate on here. Yes I think the bottle is over-valued too, however if I'm buying a used record I certainly don't berate the guy asking too much, I just shop elsewhere. Please read back. One guy responded not so favorably and OP got defensive and tried to justify his pricing.... po...

Re: Dark Lord Day 2015

I went for the first time this year. Managed a French Vanilla Militia (Group A), so pretty stoked. Other than the weather it was a beautiful event. The music was rather toned down, unlike what I expected, so that was great. Had a nice tour of FFF the night before, that was the highlight for me. Wou...

Hell, this is even worse than some of the junk on the Canadian FB ISO/FT groups.


Just put an ISO: HF shelf stuff and I'm sure it'll get done. People are trying to offload that junk at every turn.

You are also in the city. So you are suffering on many levels beyond beer. :wink:

We will fill any clean brown glass 1.89l growler. (please bring your own cap)
Why only 1.89L?
I like half growlers. Any chance you'd open up to this?

Re: New Arrivals at LCBO & TBS

And a quick follow up from our earlier post today. We weren't lying when we said we were continuing to find solutions... :D The brewery will continue to tweak as needed. And, just to confirm, the date on the cans (and cans out there in the market) references the PACKAGED ON date. http://greatlakesb...

I refuse to buy any GLB cans with smudged/illegible date coding.

Nice to see Immodest here in Windsor. Total surprise. Couple weeks old. Drain pour AMIRITE? ;)

Re: Keep6 Imports opens online bottle shop

Have you gone to your local and asked? I went into my local just to tell them two cases were coming. They said "oh you're Matthew George. There's no phone number on the packing slip and your address is wrong." Indeed they were correct: no phone number, no email, Toronto listed instead of ...

Re: Keep6 Imports opens online bottle shop

How prompt was the release at 12pm?
I was on just after and it was unavailable. Still noted that it would become available at 12pm (even though it had passed).
Assumed I missed out.
