I had a beer with Charles a few years ago in the Wooly in Guelph. A mutual friend that used to work at Wellington was talking to him @ the bar, and he piped up when I ordered a half of Wellington best bitter. Very interesting guy. I seem to remember him saying that he helped start up Wellington brew...

I want to love Beaus, i really do, but the only thing they seem to do consistantly is dissapoint me. I love the idea and the passion they seem to have, but their product(s) just don't do it for me.

I've just discovered that a nano-brewery has opened there, and got in contact with them saying i was looking forward to trying all of their stuff. I ...
