Thanks for the info. When I first saw this post I thought "winery = Niagara". But from your web site I see Southbrook is in fact at Major Mac and Bathurst, which is pretty convenient.

Yeah, I had a bubba of Bolduc a few years ago.

And you're right Perry, Maudite has left for Sleeman. Manul (or anyone else) - you should probably contact Kelly Ryan about orders. He's Unibroue's new Toronto rep who we met at the Bartowel night at Ciro's. Not sure if he frequents the forum.

But the show was a lot of fun, and it was an extra bonus to bring back all the Grand Crus. Manitoba, considering it...

Does anyone remember this thread? We discovered that Manitoba stocks both Rodenbach Grand Cru & Old Foghorn. Well, guess where I happen to be going tonight? That's right, Winnipeg! I'm bringing an extra backpack to carry home beer.

Well, what I meant was is there any interest from the beer reps/agents/pub owners, etc. to maintain this kind of thing?

Obviously I know there's interest from the beer connoisseurs :smile: But without the participation of the reps/owners/managers, we've got nothing.
