The Bar Towel

Last night tried out for the first time:

Dogfish Head Black and Blue (not too impressed with this one)
Stone Cali Belgique IPA (interesting take on their IPA)
Oskar Blues Ten Fiddy (delicious imperial stout)

Last night I enjoyed some:
Brooklyn-schneider-hopfen-weisse
Brooklyn Monster
Lagunitas Hop Stoopid

Last night I had a Dogfish Head White Squall. A very nice DIPA that was unfiltered. My favourite DFH beer! A dry-hopped, unfiltered version of the 90 min. I had never heard of this, but when I saw it in the store (Total Wine), I had to try it. Funny, the lady at the cash, proobably around 55, gave ...

I'm in SW Florida right now and every restaurant seems to have Sam Adams etither on tap or in bottle. It's typically the only "craft" beer avaialable (though if lucky they have SNPA in bottle). Would be nice to see more of their offerings in Ontario.

Started with a Oskar Blues Dales Pale Ale, then had another one, then moved on to Lagunitas Maximus IPA..phenominal.

Glasses are small, put so are the prices for the beer. Not sure what the fuss is all about. If a recall correctly, they were advertised as full a...

I predict that:
1) one of the majors will buy another Ontario craft brewer a la Creemore.
2) Steamwhistle will contemplate making another beer really really well
3) There will be at least three new craft brewers in the GTA with at least one of them having a focus on specialty beers.

While I haven't been lucky enough to try the Ten Yeas Bitter, I was at the brewery maybe two weeks ago (and picked up some Nutcracker), I was told the TYB would be back in the new year - sounds like they are still having problems with their bottling line and that seemed to be part of the reason for ...

My most consumed is likely Fuller's ESB, but Mike Duggan #9 is catching up (espeically when I buy it by the case!).

Oskar Blues Dale's Pale Ale...not a radical beer, but highly enjoyable.

I had a Rogue Yellow snow, followed by a ST IPA. I found the ST IPA much more enjoyable and well rounded for a hoppy IPA.

Same experience. Hope to try some newer stock and see if any difference.

Black Oak Saison, Rogue Yellow Snow IPA...not sure what's next.

Enjoying some Yellow Snow IPA right now...bought from Jane/Dundas LCBO.
