Re: Nickel Brook Brewing
There is no mistake to own up to. You're entitled to your "opinion" but you are not judge, jury and executioner. Get off your high horse. you can't admit that your opinion's incorrect, can you? like, zero ability to look at info people have laid down at your feet and maybe consider what t...

Re: Nickel Brook Brewing
I also agree with Portwood. I really like Nickel Brook, but the image on the current Naughty Neighbour cans really needs to be retired. their tonedeafness on NN and Immodest packaging has resulted in me not buying a single beer of theirs in a long, long time. first, Naughty Neighbour's current can ...

Re: Nickel Brook Brewing
You could post images of naked old folks having sex on your can's and I wouldn't give a crap. There are far more important things in life to be concerned about that actually make a difference in the world. Being offended about an image on a beer can is the type of thing I'll leave for the drama que...

Re: Whitewater Brewing - Farmer's Daughter
Good sir, I kindly ask that you don't spend time reviewing beer from breweries that don't give 3 shits about being misogynists. that can is sexist and completely unnecessary. you call it an "attractive can". maybe to sad, lonely men. not saying that you're one of them, but by praising tha...

Re: Rorschach Brewing
my friend went last week. beer geek, home brewer. brewery's typical toronto: really not good upon opening. said 1 beer was ok and the rest weren't good. i don't know if it was Louis Cipher-level bad, but he said he wouldn't return. tired of Toronto breweries not spending an extra month to get their ...

Re: Merit Brewing Company
Surprised there hasn't been a post yet about them. Hamilton brewery, look like the official open is on the 11th, tho there's been a soft open already. Anyone been? Their stuff looks really interesting. Chanan, a dry hopped saison with Indian coriander and fresh orange peel sounds amazing. Can't wai...

Re: Coming Soon to the LCBO
My generosity still extends to you if you would like to come up on Thursday evening to sample some Invictus with me. I’d be more than happy to discuss sparging, our brewing methodology, and your views on IPAs face-to-face. Yours in brewing, Peter Craft beer is 99% asshole free, are you the one? i a...

Koelship is a world-class bar with amazing beer. but this really takes things in a direction that i'm not overly cool with.
it also make me laugh. Jean opened up a 1996 gueze and a 1997 kriek for us to try. so...do i owe him $300 or so?

Re: Ontario Brewing Awards
do you not have to pay for each beer you submit?
these awards are jokes. it's a weird Ontario circle jerk, with the best beer not even being submitted and with way too many categories.

Re: Coming Soon to the LCBO
In my opinion Flying Monkeys is getting lapped by the competition and have been for a while. The ltd. edition big bottles are so hit and miss that a $38 bottle of anything they do now is an absolute pass. I didn't even try the Aurora Hearts when it hit stores because when I had a bottle from the br...

Re: Muddy York Brewing
Thanks for the info, with the name Conan I found this description: The general description of the yeast is appealing, mostly clean, but with a citrusy/apricot character. So the yeast does have some impact on the aromatics but I had thought it was all hops. Learnt something new it is believed that t...
