Re: Burdock Brewing
I have had 13 of their beers, and can't say I disliked any of them. The Peach and Apricot Berliner and the North East Brown Ale have been my favourites.

Re: Godspeed Brewery
I'm pretty sure Godspeed is a contraction of 'God has peed.' This is taken from the expression: "This beer is so bloody good, it tastes as if God has peed in the bottle!" As a big fan of divine urination, i like the name.

County Road Beer Co.
Dropped by this new brewery last week-end (apparently their grand opening is actually this coming week-end). They share a location with the Hinterland wine company, a Prince Edward winery specializing in sparkling wines. My wine knowledge is limited, but they have an ancient method sparkling wine th...

Re: Burdock Brewing
Burdock has a limited run in the bottle shop of their first blended barrel fermented beer: Cuvee 1. 852 bottle run. If three customers constitutes a line, then this was the first time I have had to line up to buy beer at Burdock! http://www.canadianbeernews.com/2016/02/03/burdock-launching-cuvee-ser...

Re: Left Field Brewery
Can't remember exactly but between 7 and 8 ($7.95?) for a 650ml bottle. They had two full shelves of the fridge stocked when I got there but likely more in the back.

Re: Left Field Brewery
Left Field has a new one in the bottle shop this weekend. It is called Sweet Jesus Mocha Marshmallow Stout. Haven't had one yet but the tasting room smelled great when I dropped by an hour or so ago.

Re: Dieu Du Ciel Anniversary Party & Bottle Release
I can't remember which BA version of Peche I got to try a while back, but I do remember thinking I liked the regular one better. Which isn't really criticism, since the original is amazing. I had the bourbon barrel aged variety last year at Volo and had the same thought - it was good, but the bourb...

Re: Bellwoods Brewery
To add fuel to the fire, one great thing about these barrel aged releases from Bellwoods is that even if you buy your 4-8 limit and don't like the first of the bottles you try, you can rest assured that you will be able to trade the others for great stuff without much problem. The list of things tha...
