The Bar Towel

Bought taps are every where, North or South of Bloor, so I don't blame that. Cost does play a role but not in the way most people think. The per-litre cost is often lower for craft beer than most domestics and especially "import" or "premium" beer. But the actual cost is much di...

How much was the flight. Considering this as well.

Yes sir.
Hampton Inn and Suites Munster,
3 min drive. Probably cab or walk it.

I'm going to bring a few local imp stouts/barrel aged stouts. Double Tempest, Hellwoods, Kentucky Bastard. A KBS and BCBS or two.

I've got a can left but it's a closer drive to the brewery for you lol. I was there Friday, there were a few flats still in the fridge, not sure if there's much or any left though.

I got a bottle in Michigan this past weekend. Cost me two KBS won't be trading it though I've never had it and it's been on the wish list for some time. I definitely wouldn't let it go for a single BCBS.

anyone have any experience aging achel bruin? or any dubbel for that matter.. wondering how long this will hold up for Ages great, I had a 2010 a month or two back and its drinking great right now. I've only one left and will likely drink it in the next month or two. I believe the Achel bottle date...

^ no this is what I meant.

HA! HA! HA! Says volumes about the LCBO private ordering process when no one wants to be the primary purchaser. :lol: The biggest obstacle is having to pick up from the LCBO office at Queen's Quay during business hours. Why they let picking up privately/online ordered single bottles of wine at your...

Anyone in GTA who needsd to fill a case I'll take a few of:
German Sour Gose With Coriander, Salt & Spruce (5.0%)

I was at Bellwoods today about 11:15. No line up. I saw one guy carrying a case home, and another guy purchasing 6 bottles. I picked up a case to spilt with my buddy. When I spoke with one of the girls last week, she said that she'd be surprised if lambda sold out sooner than one week. That was me ...

Yeah I'm not excited about that either, especially since its only a month apart from trip down to KBS this weekend as well.

Dark Lord is good but way overhyped (IMHO). Maybe a variant would change my mind, but I was nowhere near being blown away when I finally got to trying it. I wasn't blown away when I had it this past year either, but still a great RIS. hHving never been before I'm going for the experience. Looking f...

Lambda (barrel aged quad w/ brett) being released Friday as well. Limited to a case per person $12/bottle.

You guys refresh or just trust that queue nonsense? Anyone know of any ways around the ticket policy? Don't really feel like meeting up with some random and getting Dahmered. I had two windows going one in queue from abour 12:44 and one refreshed from 12:58 on. The 12:44 window went through. No ide...
