we have never filtered a beerMatttthewGeorge wrote: ↑Thu Jan 05, 2023 3:47 pm
@matt7215 since your the only brewer I know on here and a swell guy that doesn't seem to mind sharing what Barncat does, your lagers in particular are almost always crystal clear. Do you filter some of your beers?

Re: Something in the Water
See, I'd love to try that oatmeal stout or ESB, but instead they send things like their lime lager or (yet another) hazy IPA to the LCBO- thus I've yet to try anything from them. Good to hear the beer is good though, I usually grab food and a beer in LV before I go to shows at the Amphitheatre, but...

Re: Breweries Selling outside beers
A trend that has started, and I wholeheartedly approve of, is breweries starting to sell stuff from other breweries. A few times this year I've bought from Willibald and got them to send me stuff from Matron and other PEC breweries. It's nice for me because I get the free shipping from Willi, which...

Re: Is cask beer still a thing?
I've been saying for years that I wish Cask Days would drop the Cask. If it's all about experimental stuff, just put it in kegs so we can try it the way it's meant to be. Most of the beers served there don't benefit from the cask treatment at all. The Wooly has 4 engines?! I can't recall seeing mor...

Re: Great Lakes Brewpub (Queen's Quay / Jarvis)
the only 2 things that need to be on a breweries website should be the hours when they are open and the product they have available I like when some get really creative and also list their address on their website. Sure it's kind of pretentious, but still a nice touch. :wink: having the address of ...

Re: Great Lakes Brewpub (Queen's Quay / Jarvis)
All bars, breweries & restaurants should post basic details such as hours and location prominently on their home page, and keep it up to date. It's maddening how this info is buried on sites, if present at all. the only 2 things that need to be on a breweries website should be the hours when th...

Re: Is cask beer still a thing?
I'm guessing that with the short shelf life, it may have been to economically dodgy to commit too much to casks for the last few years. I hope to see a comeback. That said, I have no interest in the trends that had infiltrated the cask scene. I stopped going to cask days because it stopped being go...

Re: Is cask beer still a thing?
as a brewery owner I can tell you Ive been asked for cask beer zero times in 6+ years
not once in our taproom by a customer
not once by a licencee looking to bring in cask beer
we usually fill one or two casks a year for cask days but that is it

Re: Would beers from the past be highly regarded today?
There are plenty of examples of beers that have been largely unchanged for decades that are still excellent. Heck, many of my favourite beers fall in that category. Rochefort 10 is and always will be outstanding. So anything made back then that stacked up against those things I think you have to co...

Re: What're you drinking right now?
I know what you mean, you often hear about hop burn in the style and it can be described as an astringent, sort of vegetative flavour. I've definitely experienced it, especially in some of the more hyped local breweries whose hazy IPAs are often overkill to my palate. In a seemingly counterintuitiv...
