Keep it in the cams and keep it year round. Don't play silly games with names, availability, and formats, and then increase the price. Len, they said why they aren't keeping it year-round: The beer has moved to a seasonal as a large bulk of sales for that brand were in the summer . I wouldn't be su...

I was there on Thursday night and asked and was told that all the changes are in the background (like a new fridge, etc.) and that the beer and food shouldn't change. Let's hope. One great new development is that the cask for the last few weeks has been Great Lakes. When I was there it was Lackey's ...

I've yet to go (perhaps one of the upcoming WC matches will bring me there), but Greg did a write-up on The Football Factory on Bathurst at Richmond. Decent tap list (Mill St., Great Lakes, McAuslan, etc) and the food sounds delish. http://www.tasteto.com/2008/11/04/pub-crawl-the-football-factory/ ...

I quite enjoyed my visit there a few weeks ago as well, really good food and the beer they make is solid. BUT, it would be nice if they got out of the safety zone a little bit. All the styles are the most mainstream ones: A Porter, a Lager, a Pilsner, a Wheat beer, etc. I hope in the future we will ...
