The Bar Towel

Well, my years of whining for this have actually paid off. From their FB page: "King Pilsner can coming soon to your local LCBO beginning July 21st. Single serve tall can $2.95 each. Available now at King Brewery Retail Store." Yes, I believe I will be buying the shit out of this. This is...
