The Bar Towel

I thought it was mostly about warehousing and shipping conditions rather than in-store?

I would have preferred this in 6-packs/cans, but I'm happy this is coming to the LCBO. Excellent beer.

Insightful post. Yep

I love getting Facebook updates from Volvo. Their cars are the best!

Easy enough to find in Buffalo, or really any good American liquor store, if you can drive. Otherwise you're stuck trading with someone else who has one.

Perhaps this explains the lack of IPAs in the spring release. Good news!

Pretty sure you can only order products through the LCBO that they actually carry/have a distributor in Ontario, not just anything.

I find that English styles just don't do a lot for me. I definitely wouldn't rank Granite in my top 5. My top 5 goes something like this: 1. Bellwoods 2. Amsterdam 3. Great Lakes 4. House Ales 5. Cameron's Though Bellwoods is the only one on this list that I really endorse fully. All the others have...

I think Amsterdam and Great Lakes can, for the purposes of this thread, be considered GTA. How often do their limited release/one-off beers make it out of Toronto? A lot of them show up at an event, or at a couple downtown bars. The regular lineup of GL and Amsterdam is really nothing to get excited...

Actually yes, my name is Sherlock. Have you been stalking me?

You guys were likely not charged duty because you purchased fairly little beer. If you cross the border for an hour and come back with upwards of one case, you're almost certainly paying duty. Especially if it's 7 cases.

Next tasting: all sours all the time

What did you think of the Wild One, Marcus?

Certainly an interesting beer to start with, sets them apart from all the other startups and their lagers and ales.

Brut barely appeared in Toronto, so don't feel too bad about that one.
