Kingston is a decent beer destination now...enough to make a summer weekend trip worthwhile!

For those who may have missed it before and may still be interested in BA stouts in the dead heat of summer, the LCBO appears to have received a (large) new shipment of KBS, which is showing stock just about everywhere. Thanks for the tip, might grab a couple since I was out of country when it firs...

Had their beers tonight. Dortmunder was generic in many ways, didn't stand out at all...but I really don't drink that style much so perhaps the best Dortmunder in the world still is average to me. Toe IPA was terrible. The stout was promising, and decent, but a bit simple. Could become a good beer o...

as you can imagine, your opinion means little to me.

Phew!

Too much fuzz. I prefer nectarines.

Man you got some cojones posting a beer for trade shortly after it was released! I tried that, didn't work out so well. Apparently blasphemy around here.

Sounds like it was a good, low key event to know about....but like others, I didn't know about it. Funny, because I pretty much get all the media releases from Stone....so I'm guessing someone just did a junk job spreading the word. I like Stone beers and pick up any new ones that appear here. I do ...

Had a heady Topper and Focal Banger today.
Got a Double Jutsu lined up next.

Thsi was the first Milkshark beer I've had, but no tthe first milkshake IPA beer. These are hardly IPAs at all in terms of how they taste...I got zero IPA taste from this pink guava beer. It was just sugary, sweet fruit juice to me. It's a nice trend, its nice to bring in people who may otherwise no...

Good to my froggy friend.
I guess it didn't miss too much here then.

I got into craft beer....well I should say good beer....because of Bier Market Esplanade. Haven't been to that location in years though. More than a decade for me I used to work directly above Bier Markt there. Was good times...we'd get free beer and dinner if we worked past 6pm. Was going there be...

Looking at LCBO's business price listing page, it's these so far (inaccuracies/typos are theirs): 518084, Left Field Pale Ale, 4.5%, 650mL 518134, Imperial Super Guy, 9.5%, 650mL 518167, Nickel Brook Manevolent, 9.5%, 473mL 518100, (no listing), 5.0%, 341mL (I'm guessing Muskoka's Dingo Drank My Be...

They don't have any list online about what they have at the bottle shop currently, do they? I'm thinking of making a trip out but would rather go when I know they have some really good stuff. Also, is the better location to visit the burlington location if I'm more interested in sour beers? And the...

On a related AB InBev news item...I read something yesterday that had me thinking...a bit... It was about how AB InBev just "cut off" the entire South Africa hop harvest from non AB Inbev breweries. At first the headlines caught my eye...and the first article I read made it sound like AB I...
