The Bar Towel

Sorry for the multiple messages...forget how these message boards work, lol. On the NOLO fest, I thought Jazz Dance was mediocre. It was tasty, but had that lemony taste that a LOT of non-alcoholic IPAs have and starts to feel generic over time. I've tried probably about 300 NA beers, and have anoth...

It was a weak attempt at deadpan humour on my part. All good brother. In the article about The Only NOLO event St. John also had positive feedback on Jazz Hands. I’ll have to get my jazz hands on some. Recently tried the Sierra Nevada Trail Pass IPA. I was looking forward to this one based on initi...

Sweet, wasn't aware of this one. Will have to seek it out.

Nice.
Thanks to their casks in a box, I've ordered home delivery from Granite more than any other brewery in Ontario.
Can't resist those in summer!

dealing with this market is a nightmare, thats why you dont see many widely distributed brands here In addition to missing Rouge, I miss Southern Tier too. That was a fun time. I miss doing the private orders. My favourite was ordering cases of Great Divide Titan and Hercules. Those beers blew me a...

Had gout once a handful of years ago. No fun!
I had pretty much been living off of chicken wings, beer and burgers at the time.
No problems since...don't eat much steak or burgers any more.

I don't know how I missed this old post, but ya...there are some decent beers in the Galapagos. Santa Cruz positions themselves as the first craft brewery in the islands, but there is some controversy there. They existed first, but originally brewed in Guayaquil, Ecuador - not in the islands. When E...

In the past, I seem to recall there being a $50 limit when ordeirng to be shipping to store. So I pre-stashed a couple of other bottles in my cart to get over that limit. Went to check out and was told that the availability of one of my items had changed. I was sure I missed out, but turns out it w...

It's not sold out....I was getting the same issue.
Just went back and there are 600+ bottles left now. What a mess.
The beer I wanted to add to get to the $50 threshold is sold out now though, lol.

Happy to have snagged some Orval recently.
Sad that the Triple Karmeliet and Achel Extra that appeared on the LCBO app last year never materialized.

Muskoka Detour, feeling simple these days.

Rode one of these in Milwaukee. They didn't serve us beer, although they had space for supplies. Instead we stocked up ahead of time and drank what we picked up at each stop along the way. So no "serving" but plenty of "consuming". Truly the fun part is drinking while pedaling wi...

Great to hear how everyone is "coping" 8) That was a good point by Craig...not buying as many "expensive" bottles. I think that fits my pattern too. I did splurge on a few big money online orders, but overall it's been the $3-4 beers. I've been off sours for quite some time, so t...

Curious how people feel their drinking habits have changed in recent months? Were you desperate to get out to a restaurant for a pint and food during Stage 3? Were you ordering beers to go from your favourite bars? I've ordered beers online from many breweries I might not have otherwise (Bell City, ...

Been enjoying the "Everything Goes Away" series from these guys (big triple ipa bombs).
