Re: New Arrivals at LCBO & TBS

Some interesting listings popping up these days ... I saw the Westy 12, which I think someone on here learned from the BO was a "mistake" (weird mistake to make), but now also seeing some other nice Belgian listings (but no in-store availability as yet) such as: Liefmans Goudenband - LCBO#...

Re: Coming Soon to the LCBO

Untappd showing KBS 2017 as 12% ... too close to call? That said, it does show 2016 as having two variants - 12.4 and 11.9. Would be nice to know. Consider as well Founders' own statement on the KBS Week site FAQs: Is KBS cellarable? What's the shelf life? The suggested shelf life is 365 days. Like ...

Re: Barncat Artisan Ales, Cambridge

Managed to find Pulp at Brux House in Hamilton yesterday - not sure whether other bars were lucky enough to get a keg, but Brux received theirs Saturday night and it was still going strong. Agree with everyone's praise - it was fantastic. Contender for best IPA in Ontario, if not Canada.

Re: New Arrivals at LCBO & TBS

I enjoy Dusty Boots root beer and have been looking forward to trying NYF, so glad to see it is arriving.

Yes, original location closing as of Saturday, with Zwanze being its last hoorah. They're actually pouring all draft beers at $5.00 all this week.
