My tickets have arrived.

Got in touch with eTix to let them know they've arrived. We're still bringing all the stuff they said we should bring for the ticket resolution tent just in case they fuck it up somehow.

wonder if it even made it to the warehouse. lcbo promised SN that the beer would be sold fresh etc. how long until they burn that bridge I'd wager a couple of months. Also wagering that Sierra Nevada and Stone are both gone from the province in two years at the absolute very most. Asked today and s...

Yeah going to throw a few westies in as well. Forgot about my Westy and Abt 12 box when pulling beers last night. GLB has lots in the fridge now good for sharing with locals in lines and what not. I won't be making it to Great Lakes before Dark Lord Day. I don't live in Toronto, or the GTA, and onl...

Well, I've gotten everything I need for Dark Lord Day. Picked up a cooler back pack, pepperonis, pretzels and bottles of water today. I also picked out what I'm bringing for bottle shares: -Two bottles of 2011 St. Ambroise Imperial Russian Stout -Two bottle of Du Dieu Ciel Peche Mortel. Not sure wha...

just got my rejection email this AM. check your spam email folder. read the email carefully because, at first, you'll be celebrating getting a bottle. but you get the same email if you get or don't get a bottle. look for "allotted quantity" Got my rejection note this morning as well. For ...

Nice beer trip! Flying down, so I'm missing some of the beer touring. That's one of the reasons I'll always drive somewhere if possible. I love stopping at places along the way. Nothing like sh*tting on your locals. Grass ain't always greener, y'know? I'd put a couple of the Bellwoods and GLB IPAs ...

You'd be surprised at what people are willing to try at these events - ie Anything that is not available to them. I'd stop by Bellwoods and bring a couple bottles, maybe some Great Lakes project X or fresh IPA. Harry Porter and BNL are actually quite popular at these things as well. Any plans to he...

everyone loving the moralite - imagine how good it was when 'fresh' :) I have such an issue with this. If a beer can't even maintain its hoppiness for two measly months then how well was that beer actually made? It's like the bottles of Karma Citra I have. Hop flavour and aroma completely gone in t...
