That's what I always say.

I have a couple extra bottles of Founders KBS from the now sold out LCBO release and was looking for something from Trillium or Treehouse in trade. Edit: Or anything else the beer geek community feels is an adequate trade taking into consideration recent releases, bottling dates, type of yeast, amou...

Fat tug in cans would be fantastic I was tired and quite drunk when I first read this news about lug tread. So drunk in fact, that I somehow read it as Fat Tug was switching to 355 cans. After re-reading and realizing it's lug tread/beaus, it's quite the comedown Did this get better all of a sudden...

Has anyone grabbed the Le Trou Du Diable Dulcis Succubus? Curious how it's tasting and whether I should order this, the Buteuse or Le Coq if I had to pick one.

Check your canning dates when you're at Loblaws! I'm specifically referring to the Loblaws at Leslie & Lakeshore in Toronto. Even after I msg'd Collective Arts to tell them about the ridiculously old beer on the shelves it's still sitting there even though the rep said they'd look into it. This ...

Anyone heard when this is arriving? I think it's one of the last to show up from this release.

Dieu Du Ciel! Aphrodite is showing back on the shelves. Picked up a case and should've checked the bottling date before bringing home as it's from August! Can someone explain why the LCBO can't get fresh DDC beer on it's shelves? We have to contend with stuff that's 5 months old? Same thing happened...

Arghh.....the Rogue Hazelnut is from JULY! Grabbed a bottle anyway and some G'Knight. Lib Village LCBO.

need someone to let us know how out of date it is this is in stock too: St Feuillien Brune Extra Strong Belgian Ale Lagunitas sucks now showing stock! Bottled Sept 10, 2016. The date code on the bottles starts with 25316 and Laguintas uses a Julian bottle dating code. It could be fresher, but it co...

Finally, also agree about the ABV. I have never been more hungover on three pints in my entire life :o Have a feeling those pints may have averaged about 10% abv. Yeah what was the deal with that? Myself and a buddy restrained ourselves pretty well at the event and still had to worship the porcelai...

Totally. We're into gouging territory now. Drink up everyone!

Bunch of Keep6 offerings showing stock again. Most notably DDC Moralite and Sentinelle and Evil Twin Low Life. I just ordered a dozen beers from Half Hours on Earth otherwise I would've partaken in this round of availability. Just got my case of Moralite in. Not too happy with the bottling date of ...

No love for their Canadian friends. I love that they come up here for Migration week to tease us with all these great beers we have no chance of buying.

Thanks for the head's up! Grabbed 6 cans last night. Any idea when this was brewed?

Was just there for a pre-Cask Days dinner. The beers are clean and tasty but nothing that will really knock your socks off. The food was great though. I had the Jerk wings and buddies had the BBQ braised beef and everyone was raving about how good the food was. Upstaged the beer pretty much.
