Comrade, the will of the people have chosen the beers and the state provides those beers and only those beers that the will of the people will buy from the beers provided by the state. I hope you understand.

Speaking of underwhelming Rogue, I tried the Youngers Special Bitter last week, it was totally blah, low hops, low malt, low esters. No way! I enjoyed the bitter last time I had one. In fact I enjoyed it because of the lower hops and malt. Sometimes you need a break. The nut brown didn't do anythin...

What do you guys think the oak aging would do to the taste of Unearthly? Just make it taste more, uh, like oak?

"alcoholism and “untreated substance abuse” costs the state $4.15 billion in lost earnings as well as more than $8 million for health care and nearly $1 billion in law enforcement-related expenditures. " all caused by beer! hey I know something that costs about 40% of most economies that s...

I think I quite like esprit's grumpiness!

esprit - do you have a web page to show how to order with you, or what you can order, etc...? (I am expecting a grumpy answer of course...)

1900% increase in tax on a barrel of beer. Only government could be so stupid.
Government is the enemy of beer.

The new owner is "crazy"?
Or was the old owner "mad"? Was his name Monty?

As for the mice, they always had a good mouse curry. it was cheap don't knock it

I noticed Mad Monty's (north of yonge & Eglinton) closed down after 15 years. Paper on the door says it will reopen mid-February with new owners.

Anyone heard anything?

It's right near my home, but since the only thing I liked on tap was Guinness, I didn't drop by too much.

went to Abbey brewing. wish I took a picture. run down building with about 3 stores boarded up and a neon "bar" sign, open door to the dark.... A little worried about going in however...amazing beer. I forget everything they had on tap and in bottle, but I had a pint of their IPA, which wa...

Peculiar! I don't think I've had one for years. Next time. It's always one of the bitters, the IPA or now, the hopping mad.
Try the stout!

I need a bit of warmth, going to Miami.

Anyone been to

Abbey Brewing Company
or
Titanic Brewing and Restaurant?

or know any others worth going to?


Oh, and any good beer stores in Miami Beach.



I can't wait to wear my white jacket, pastel t-shit and loafers, I'm gonna be so Miami vice

In all the years I've gone to the Granite, I never tried the stout. Had one last night. Very very good. I love their beers.

Oh and I'm also wondering how the current up-pricing equals "social responsibility" You all realize that getting less expensive beer and private sales means that it must be proven to most of Ontario that the concept of "social responsibility" must be questioned. I want to buy go...

Perhaps the government needs to include a beer allowance with university grants? Complaining about beer being too expensive for students is nonsense. It's too expensive for everyone. Next thing there will be student discounts, and we'll all pay for that on top of subsidizing their education that the...

I made the mistake of buying this three pack. I poured the "double ipa' down the sink after a sip or two. I don't think I can return the other 2 bottles.
