Kinda wish that some of our microbrewers could get some air time to talk about the ludicrous, self-serving cost of shelf space at TBS, or the amount of dust on cases of Iron Duke...

Betty's

Stopped into Betty's this week and was pleasantly surprised that they do indeed have their casks going. Seems there was an issue with them any other time I was in there, but it has been awhile.

Re: Organizer Feedback

Thanks to all who came out. It was by far our best attended event, but again had it's hiccups. Thanks to all for all your critiques and suggestions. Regarding the WASHROOMS: you can imagine our horror when we found out the porta-potties wouldn't arrive in time. Last year we had a washroom debacle, ...

I had a couple of pints of the Basil McRae and it was like drinking a pine tree, albeit on cask. I had a "Golden Ale" as well which was quite pleasant but I don't recognize it from the list.

If I see another one of those putt-putting along Lakeshore Blvd., I'm going to run over it. But not if it's this one.

That's fine with me, as long as he isn't still using his page as a pulpit for insults and attack.

I'm on the fence about this since he's attacked me personally and he's duping many people, as others have said. However, I'm not trying to bait him but I would like to see his participation here in a discussion. His page doesn't seem to exist on Facebook, unless I've been added to the blocked list.
