Anyone know of anywhere in Toronto that currently has some on? All the likely establishments either just ran out or will be putting it back on soon. I want some today! :)

Nope, nothing left tomorrow. We finished it early this evening. And it was tasty. Yum. Thanks to the folks at Victory for putting this on, hopefully we'll brew it again soon. ??? I was at the Victory last night and the only cask they were serving was F&M Stonehammer Coffee Oatmeal Stout. Did th...

I was going to leave this alone but I have to add a final word on this. Peter's claim that someone called his house to threaten him (which I personally call bullshit on) insinuates, to me, that one of us did it. I was with several of the people who are fed up with his practices in this thread that n...

I was going to type out a lengthy response to Lopaty but I stopped before I started, I just couldn't be arsed to waste the time. Instead I will just continue with my boycott of Esprit's products. When I see a Rogue or Orval on the shelf tempting me I will remember threads like this one. P.S. Remembe...

I'm assuming they will only deliver to Quebec? Do they deliver to a Quebec SAQ or a residence?

First off, thanks to Peter for his well written and informative post. Please keep us up to date, I look forward to trying your new beers. I'm especially happy about this comment: I really like the stuff from Three Floyds Brewery in Indiana who use Amarillo hops in their wheat beer. That is one great...

Thanks guys. Bloor West Village is where I'm referring to. Dr. Generosity looks good, they have several good beers listed, but unfortunately they close at 10:30 on Friday nights so that's out. Yellow Griffin may be an option bu they list no beer on their website which isn't helpful. A Dark Horse I w...

High Park

Anywhere good to drink there? I read 10 pages of this folder, bringing me to almost 2005, and found no mention of anywhere in that area that's decent. One good beer on tap is all I'm looking for.....anything?

That can't be right, I paid $79.32 a case.

I'd like to add my much-delayed, big thanks to Ralph, his family and the rest of the Volo gang for the best Cask Days yet! A great selection of beer, a less crowded environment, great cheese and snacks, the staff were great and everyone seemed in a great mood, including myself. I enjoyed myself grea...
