I was really impressed by the Cameron's Auburn Ale also, although it never seems to taste quite that good in a bar or in bottles... :sad:

So what are the repercussions of being found out? Do you get put on a shipping 'Black List' or something?

If not, over the long run its still worth it.

Agreed - I dont think these threads should be allowed to linger. They would best be deleted as soon as they crop up.

I managed to swing a 2-week vacation (Well, 3-days were conference) to Greece on the company dime 2 years ago. I'm hoping to get them to sign off on a conference in Barcelona this year, but I'm not optimistic :smile: (PS: Greece sucks for Beer) <font size=-1>[ This Message was edited by: A on 2003-0...

Had some of these for the first time last weekend (dont know why I hadnt tried it before) and it was fantastic.

I know esprit has consignment cases, but can it still be found in the LCBO? Was it recently available by itself, or only in the gift packs?

That's good news. C'est What has been consistently underwhelming me for the last 2-3 years as far as tap selection goes, hope this will breath some life into it.

What exactly do you mean by every kind of beer available in Toronto? Clearly, from some random searches, you do not list *many* beers available in the LCBO.

Or do you mean any bear as long as its Molson/Labatts/Interbrew?

I think its cool too, as long as it doesnt turn into the hard-sell for thier products (which it hasn't so far). I think hard-core fans of anything react poorly to a hard marketing sell anyways, so I'm glad to see it remains pretty laid back here. (Or, at the very least, if you are going to push your...
