Yep, it's now available at LCBO's across the province. Should be up on the LCBO website any day now, but you can find it at pretty much every major LCBO and those stocking Craft Beer. We've pretty much sold out, so what's in store is all that is available. We'll save a few cases for our retail store...

Our Winter Ale gift set should be available some time round mid-November. It's working it's way through the system right now, so hopefully it makes it through on time. It will include a bottle of Winter Ale and two small snifter glasses with the Winter Ale logo on them. It's all packaged in a fancy ...

Hey folks, Our brand spanking new Pumpkin Ale is finally ready in bottles and on tap. We sent out the first few kegs to C'est What, Volo, Academy of Spherical Arts, Allen's, Victory, Bow and Arrow and some cases to Bier Markt, Jamie Kennedy and elsewhere. Bottles are for sale at the brewery, $4.95 e...

I suggest we ALL make LOTS of requests to our local stores as JB says, and then discuss the outcomes here (the stores, products, strategies, the obnoxious resistances and the encouraging successes.) Better than just whining about it here! :D [/b] Time to show some political will. The more the bette...

Glad to hear everyone's enjoying Devil's Pale Ale. It's taken much longer than we thought to finally get it on shelves, but it's well worth the wait. This is a general list for us, so you can expect to find it year-round. We've been frantically canning to keep up with demand. As a result, only a han...

Good news! The first batch of cans are finally ready! After weeks of saying anyday now, I can tell you we'll have them at our retail store starting this Friday. It took us a little longer than we expected to get our canning machine up and running, but I think we've ironed out all the wrinkles. We've...

Cans will definitely be available at our retail stores, perhaps as early as this Friday, and definitely by next week. They should be hitting LCBOs from London to Ottawa around the same time too. And although it may not be an "extreme" beer, we feel it's a big step for us and will be one of...

In response to tuqueboy's comment, I have to offer my 2 cents as well. We recognize as well as anyone the limited (but certainly growing) market for distinctive beers such as our seasonal ales. If we were to focus entirely on these brands, we'd be out of business next week. It certainly isn't a fina...

Project X is finally ready! The first few kegs of Project X were sent out last Friday to Victory Cafe and Ronnie's Local in Kensington Market and the Merchant Ale House in St. Catharine's. Volo will get theirs tomorrow, and hopefully a couple more places before the week's up. Although it doesn't rea...

Hi all, Just a quick note to let you know we've got something new on the way...it's a one-off batch of 1000 litres, so about a dozen or so kegs that we're hoping to send to some of the usual suspects downtown. Hopefully it'll do it's thing over the weekend and we'll have it ready to go by late next ...

Just noticed this thread...I was in Amsterdam two days ago stumbling around the city's finest pubs...well worth a stop. Most of the best destinations have been mentioned - my faves would certainly be the Eagle's Nest (great small little place with excellent dutch selection plus about 10 beers on tap...

It's great to hear the varied responses to the beer - everyone gets a different taste, which is just what we wanted. Had a couple fruit beers in Belgium over the past couple weeks, some of which were wayyyy too intense (ie. Beck's Orange Beer) so I'm happy that our beer appeals to a number of palate...

The initial response to OPA was even better than we expected, meaning that we've been a little short on the draught end for the past couple days. In talking to a number of bartowelers, consumers and lcboers, we've been quite happy with everyone's response - that said, a surprising number of people f...

As for distribution, it'll be available in LCBO's in Ottawa, Kingston, Niagara Falls, London, KW, Barrie, Orillia and points in between...check the LCBO website for details next week!

Hi everyone...
Orange Peel Ale won't be available until Tuesday or Wednesday next week. We lose a bunch of days this weekend for bottling, so that's why we're a little behind schedule. But we think you'll like it once you get a taste...
