Sad but true
Well, not entirely true, but sad enough. This is a blog from this week's Economist on the UK pub scene. http://www.economist.com/daily/diary/displayStory.cfm?source=hptextfeature&story_id=11826680#tuesday I think an interesting part of this story that us beer lovers sometimes forget is that pubs...

That's so funny. Greg you should work for Comcast! I'm amused by his/her comments on the service. While I've had good service at the Boiler House, I'm convinced Pure Spirits only hire the most inexperienced and undedicated people they can find. I have had terrible service there several times. I even...

Let's say for argument's sake that the LCBO did a fantastic job. Stocked everything we could imagine, priced fairly and reasonably, had decent extended hours, chilled craft beer, supported Canadian producers at least as much as foreign - if not more, and took back their own empties. How many people ...

When the district first opened, I thought, here is a great business and arts incubator. The most successful result has been Mill St. and maybe Balzacs. I think it's great there is a place that can launch quality micro businesses into quality mid-macro businesses. It's what turns me on about the neig...

The whole issue of pouring rights, whether at events or in bars, irritates me big time. Especially when it leads to exclusivity, I mean lack of choice. It's one thing for a marketing department to gain visibility by sponsoring events or buying banner space, but it speaks of corporate insecurity when...

I have received a number of private messages encouraging me not to permanently leave the bartowel, and as a result I have decided to stick around. In the future I will not get so emotionally involved, and I will limit my LCBO defence posts as most people here find them to be insane. That's great! I...

Recent Coors ad
I just noticed a new Coors ad about colour changing labels. I guess their customers now need to know when it tastes like cold.
