Re: New Arrivals at LCBO & TBS

I see the Jart-Elle Oude Kriek is available now, but at $11.95 for 375ml, it better be pretty damn good. Anyone had it, yet? Yes, I have had it. It was good, but if you want a strong cherry component, you will be disappointed. I think I could get into my displeasure for high prices, but it may be m...

Re: Barncat Artisan Ales, Cambridge

Macdonald decided to reach out to his future business partner on an online beer forum they were both a part of to congratulate him and see if he’d like to trade beers.
Could it be?

Re: 2023 LCBO Summer Release

I've always thought it tasted better out of the big green bottles too, but I just chalked that up to tasting with my eyes or my imagination or something.

The beer I really miss is Avec Les Bons Voeux. I used to get tons of that every holiday season, haven't seen it in ages.

Re: 2023 LCBO Summer Release

The LCBO does weird things when you try to search by a SKU that doesn't exist. It somehow tries to guess the right search for you, showing you an essentially random result. Like searching for 23743, it says on the one side "no results" then shows me results for 234369 instead.
