The Bar Towel

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).

Had the Godspeed "Nana" recently, brewed with Japanese shichimi spices and was really impressed.
Didn't know what to expect, and it turned out to be one of my favourite beers of this summer.

Kind of surprised there's not more chatter about this brewery on here. I've mainly had their IPAs, but they've been uniformly excellent. Kind of bringing back the more classic style IPA, but with a modern presentation. I jumped in on the first delivery package they offered. No car these days, and r...

I did finally give in this summer to convenience and have grabbed brews from my closest grocery store multiple times.
can see myself maybe getting more used to it when weather gets nasty and it's the closest option.

Ah cool...good to know.
I suppose a bike ride out to GLB will have to happen soon one weekend soon to see what they have.
Ya, I guess walk-up biz isn't their main deal seeing as how they close at 6 during every day.

Wooop, love the Belgian gift packs.

I'm guessing none of them have glassware though...I pretty much just buy the giftpacks for myself though

Those Cascades were hype for a short time weren't they?
Good stuff, just pricey.

Great Lakes BURST! A New England Pale Ale coming to the LCBO. https://www.canadianbeernews.com/2020/08/05/great-lakes-brewery-burst-a-new-england-pale-ale-coming-to-lcbo/ For such a large brewery in Ontario, GLB makes it stupidly difficult to buy their beers direct, if you don't want a case of stuf...

Anyone taken advantage of this yet?
I just can't pull the trigger and pay the high prices of volo / bar hop / wvrst / etc to drink at home.
Perhaps as a special treat now and then...like if we're still locked down when my birthday rolls around in the summer.

Agreed...hard to get great quads locally. I do a "Merry Quadsmas" event over the holidays and it is a struggle to find decent options that aren't the go-to ones from Belgium.

I do have the 3x versions of Tetrahedron in my fridge right now...holding out hope they'll be ok.

Took a month off recently...back at it now...
Some recent highlights:
Barrel Aged Rat Queen...whatever year was the first year they did it
Blood Brotherhood - Badlands collab...looked ugly, tasted great!

While I'm happily depleting my built up stock...I will take advantage of this before too long.
Great work!
