I remember a tasty imperial stout (Stout Impérial, 7.5%) from L'Amere a Boire in Montreal in April. A definite standout from a whirlwind brewpub tour (4 out of the 5 in one night). Obviously of little help to us here, but good to keep in mind if you find your way out to PQ. <font size=-1>[ This Mess...

Thanks for the tips Lyle. Does anyone have any suggestions for good pubs to check out in Buffalo during the fest weekend? I've been to Pearl St. many times in the past, and I'll definitely be heading back there at some point. I've heard Alternative Brews is also a great place to check out. <font siz...

Lyle, you nailed exactly what I did to satisfy my hoppy cravings. A few months ago when the HopDevil ran dry, a few friends and I decided to homebrew a superhop ale. I had homebrewed a number of times before, but never this kind of brew. We threw in at least three kinds of hops, including some of th...

Well Josh, we'll definitely be able to meet at Buffalo :smile: But you're right, the TO fest is now marketing-oriented. There is no longer any motivation for the organizer (Cottage Creek) to put on a festival for the hardcore fans. As of right now, Cottage Creek can do the same kind of fest every ye...

Hi Greg, thanks for the review! As for me, Josh, I was there :smile:. From about 4-8pm on Saturday. But like you, I was suprised that I didn't see the people I knew were there at the same time. Strange. Yeah, the festival was as expected. Few new beers, but lots of crowds. Not much opportunity to ch...

Well, I went to La Palette today for brunch. I was most impressed. It is a fantastic little bistro, with a relaxed atmosphere, friendly staff and a cool decor. I had a crepe filled with apricots covered in a maple glaze - yummy. And to complement this, a delicious draught Blanche de Chambly. The bee...
