Re: Worst Ontario Craft Breweries
Not Ontario but Parallel 49 is being cancelled right now due to staff treatment by owners and management. Has anyone seen the notourp49 Instagram and their response?

Re: General LCBO Debate & Discussion Thread
I'd just like to point out how shit the LCBO's ecommerce platform is. The site is slow, counterintuitive in its sort functionality and riddled with crap. I spent about an hour sorting through their current selection, and after putting together a case, I get this message at checkout: "There are...

Re: Third Moon Brewing
Definitely one of the better IPAs I've had. Nice full flavor and lingering moderate bitterness which is missing from most hazies these days. Hits the spot for me.HeadyestTopper wrote:I had Bone Tree today, phenomenal.
Will try Cut Me Down tomorrow, looking forward to it!

Re: Collective Arts
I don't mind the chunks. Often those batches taste better (ie Sparklepuff, Life In The Clouds) From what I've heard and my very limited brewing knowledge it's due to too much protein.
Whatever, give it a swirl before you pour that last quarter! You'll be fine!

Tangerine Sour is ok but I prefer their dry hopped raspberry sour. It's available for online orders, just received mine yesterday.duckdown wrote:Anyone tried their new Tangerine Sour or the FEST IPA?
I didn't order the Fest IPA, not a fan of fruited IPAs. Would try one can but not a 4 pack.
