Re: Coming Soon to the LCBO

Since Founders is being mentioned...anyone know if PC Pils will be back this summer? It just says product discontinued at the website. When it came along near the end of last summer, maybe early September, it became my only regular pilsner until the local LCBO ran out around November. Tons of PC Pi...

Southern Tier

What happened to Southern Tier in Ontario?

Miss having the IPA available and the special releases like 2XIPA, Gemini, Unearthly, Pumking, Warlock and other Blackwater series beers.

I miss Southern Tier. :(

Re: Uncorked-Wine and Spirits Appreciation

Buffalo Trace, at just over $40, is a solid value in an everyday bourbon. Knob Creek Single Barrel (provided you get a good barrel!), is a bargain at $58. Any other bourbon ‘steals’ at the lcbo in your opinions? Feel free to mention any other spirits available at the lcbo that strike a fantastic bal...

Re: Beer in Grocery Stores

Zehrs in Barrie on Big Bay has got a beer and wine section now, most of it refrigerated. My first Ontario grocery store beer purchase! It had a pretty decent selection. TBS on Bayfield at the north end actually has an employee (not sure if he was a manager or not) that's been working on bringing mo...
