The Bar Towel

Kind of sad that the Buffalo Bisons (the Jays farm team) is increasing their craft beer selection and promoting it as well. Scroll down to near the bottom: http://www.milb.com/news/article.jsp?ymd=20140324&content_id=70009284&fext=.jsp&vkey=news_t422&sid=t422 You can't have that stu...

I wish a local brewer could shed some light on why bombers have become the go-to. Is it a shelf space thing? Profit margin? Ease of production? LCBO requirement? Or are new brewers just following the herd, since bombers seem to be one of the modern standards (the other being the much-superior 473mL...

Wow. I've never investigated Mikkeller's and didn't know anything about it. Very interesting. Thanks for posting.

Any brewery, regardless of location, ownership, or size can produce high quality beer. We may prefer to support a local producer of high quality beer. We may prefer to suport an independent producer of high quality beer. We may prefer to support a small sized producer of high quality beer. Well put...

I had this over a year ago and quite liked it for what it was, but I agree that "West Coast Style" is misleading.

Here's a little article I did for Pub Magazine in 2011 when I worked for him: http://www.tradersforum.ca/pubmagazine/pubmagazine_2011_06_web.pdf Jump to pdf page 37. It gives a bit of his history and of the little brewery is has now, which will stop production at the end of this month I believe. Ni...

Sawdust City Long Dark Voyage to Uranus

Wow! 650 ml of 9% goodness. A challenge by yourself after having had some other treats during the day.

Pours like used motor oil - and I say that in a positive, most complimentary way.

Don't recall seeing this mentioned.

I'll be in Michigan for my son's hockey tournament at New Year's. Can anyone compare Merchant's on Michigan Ave and the Beer Baron on Middlebelt Rd?

Just curious. I'm sure either will do for my purposes. Where do you park at Merchant's? Out behind the store?

Dupont Monk's Stout

I picked this up a few months ago. It was over-carbonated, and I didn't think it had an abundance of great flavour.

I know the general feeling of most of you about Trafalgar....I'm not as hard on them. One thing I find interesting is that I rarely, if ever, read any news about them, and then one day I see a new beer from them in the LCBO. Saw this yesterday while in an Oakville store. TRAFALGAR NORTHERN HARVEST L...

Good for them. I've purchased this at the brewery twice, and quite like it, although the second case was a little over-carbonated.
