Mill Street Tankhouse
True North IPA
King Pilsner
Anything from Grand River

and maybe a few bottles of Blue aka "The Good Stuff" for lawnmower beer. I still have some in my fridge so I might as well drink it :)

I'll be looking forward to defending my championship that I hopefully win in two weeks!

I'm not sure how many weeks Ovechkin has helped me win.. but it's been quite a few :)

I sent an email to Charles MacLean last night and got a reply this afternoon: I just finished brewing my first Pale Ale here. I have done the Scotch Ale and the Organic Country Ale on cask so far. I will have bottles out late April from my retail store here. The adress is 212744 Baseline Rd., Norman...

So where is his place? My parents live up in Harriston so I go up that way quite a bit. I'll have to make a trip over to his place sometime and check it out :)

My sister picked up a few beers from Propeller last summer when she was out there (ESB and Honey Wheat). I really enjoyed the ESB and it's nice to see the LCBO bringing it in. I'll certainly be picking up a bunch of it when it comes out and try to keep my fridge stocked with Propeller ESB and Rogue ...

I don't think there is.. most of the Sleeman stuff is in clear bottles, and so is Brick Red Baron.

Then you got some stuff in Green bottles such as Steamwhistle.

I doubt they would but you never know. Or they could just tell you to pick up a fresh case of blue, which is of course.. "the good stuff"

I've been meaning to try the Magnotta brands as well.. but the layer of dust on the cases just doesn't look that appealing.

I went in today to pick up a case of the IPA that I pre-ordered, apparently I was the first one :) Tried a sample while I was at the brewery and it was amazing! Definitely one of the best IPA's I've had. I saw they had a few bottles in the cooler today, but I think they were selling them in limited ...

I don't mind picking up a case of Trailhead the odd time. It's my go-to cheap beer that actually tastes good! With the price of a case of Trailhead around $30.95 (according to TBS website) and the regular cheap beers like Lakeport at $28 a case... I'd much rather spend the extra 3 bucks and get some...
