Think you'll ever make another imperial black IPA like Apocalypse Later or your 25th-anniversary brew?

For those of us who like that style, they're pretty legendary!

Glad to see someone posting about All My Friends! I have yet to visit, but did an order a little while ago and everything was great. I'll go on record to say Boujee Juice is one of the best NEIPAs I've ever had.

This is the description on the LCBO website: "B.C.'s Driftwood Brewing brings us a Northwest-style IPA with an intense and flavourful hop profile. Aromas and flavours of grapefruit, mango, melon, passion fruit, tangerine, pine, sweet malt and floral notes deliver a big, bold and smooth-finishi...

Nice! I'm hoping to visit the area this summer. Some good times a-brewing.

Goose Island Toronto has a fairly new trip', called Tripel/Time: https://untappd.com/b/goose-island-brewhouse-toronto-tripel-time/5118602 I picked one up. Will letcha know how I liked it! Okay, nothing special...as expected. Here's another interesting one I found that's tasty but far from tradition...

Hahahaha, exactly why this "hype" brewery isn't on my radar.

I'd consider it to be the best brewery in Ontario, though. In other words, not hype.

And Destihl comes to Ontario! Would not have guessed that. https://www.lcbo.com/en/destihl-haze-of-the-dead-hazy-double-ipa-29592 i could not tell canning date but was guessing it was already months old on the shelf. so hazy yes but not fresh. Besides GTA does world class hazy now I bought one of t...

Anyone 'member when they brought in some Dogfish Head 60? It was the greatest summer our lives...

Please share any examples of beers you've tried that were between 0.5-3% ABV that 'scratched the itch'... The Big Drop stout was somewhat convincing to me. According to Ratebeer there are low alcohol beers that are far more than just passable. For example.. https://www.ratebeer.com/beer/miloslaw-be...

I don't really consider nonalcoholic beer much of an indulgence, but sometimes you want something fizzy and dry that goes well with food, but sans alcohol. The choices have gotten a lot better over the years (for instance, I recommend Bellwoods' dry-hopped nonalc fruit sours), and I expect that tren...

So...Mill Street Brewery has come out with a hazelnut brown ale. Would I recommend it? No, not really. But it might scratch a certain itch!

Good video, thanks for posting it up! I was frantically taking notes...

In terms of Ontario-made brews, Godspeed makes excellent traditional Czech lagers, both light and dark, that could certainly pass as lawnmower/dad beers. They just happen to be very sophisticated and well-made, with authentically difficult-to-pronounce names. Third Moon makes a great Czech lager (ca...

I was in Dublin in May last year, and got to try all the export beers at the brewery. Really good stuff, and I did everything I could to advertise their availability. Alas, most people didn't get past the basic version of Guinness, no doubt entranced by the opportunity to pull your own draught.
