The Bar Towel

Found this on Toronto.com, have never been tho' 'The Auld Spot' http://www.toronto.com/profile/151380 There used to be a nice Scottish pub right downtown, around Church & King area - it was called the Stonecutter's Arms, they had Robbie Burn's nights wi' Haggis, tartan walls, the whole nine yard...

Further to the Soccer / Beer thread - I'm very happy to announce that starting this weekend C'est What? will begin opening at 10:00am on Saturday and Sunday and showing EPL soccer! Imagine that! Watch the match, and enjoy a killer pint too!! YES!! I'm hoping to head over on Sunday for the Arsenal v ...

While I don't know the details of their business plan, I think you've probably got it backwards. By launching the organic, they've been able to generate volume & revenue that now allows them to brew the better beer without going out of business :smile: Perhaps if some of the other brewers took o...

Yikes! Now I'm petrified to try the bottle I picked up the other night! I'll make sure I have a bucket ready and I'll post the results. ;^) BTW - I visited the LCBO at Hurontario and Eglinton in Mississauga, on Jan 22nd, and they still had literally HUNDREDS of the Christmas Gift boxes (with x # of ...

If you haven't been down, go check it out, this place is by far my favourite beer bar in Toronto, and with all the new taps it's simply heavenly! One thing to watch out for though is now that all the taps are so dispersed, they don't have all of them on all of the menu's - So it might be worth strol...

I agree - Had a pint at C'est What? on Tuesday, really enjoyed it! Nice and dark, balanced with complex flavors...

Popped in to the BeerBistro on Friday afternoon, awesome draft selection, so hard to pick just one! Since they didn't have Keith's I decided to try another IPA (Bwahahaha...) I enjoyed a pint of Scotch Irish St. Major's IPA, So cool to have it available on tap in Toronto! The staff that I dealt with...

Hi Gang, I'm super excited about this place. We should all make an effort to check it out, hopefully we'll have more good things to say about it than bad, and I'd recommend we all tell all of our friends about it too and get them to check it out. It's this type of simple, grass-roots stuff that we c...

I'll be there! I'm actually planning a late lunch and afternoon session, so hopefully I'll be pleasantly pickled by the time the festivities officially start ;Op If anyone is looking for a recommendation, it's TRY EVERYTHING! But if you're can't do that, then I'd heartily recommend giving a sample t...

Hi Gang, As a final write up (well almost final, I suppose I should post a review of the actual beer! Hehehe...), here's how it all wrapped up. Rec'd a 'pickup notice' in the MAIL yesterday, it stated that there were 2 full cases, + 22 bottles (2 bottles missing), to be picked up. Total cost $153.00...

<B><I>Update!</I></B> I followed up the LCBO on Friday, as it's been just over 3 months since I originally placed the order for 3 cases of Sierra Nevada. I heard back from them today, apparently the order has just arrived, I should be getting a pick-up notice in the mail later this week! I'll post a...

Was at C'est What? Tonight, progress on the renovations are finally starting to show. They've got the kitchen moved over, the new bathrooms open and you can see into the new space. The new bar is roughed in, but it still seems (to me anyway), that the interior of the new room is still quite away fro...

A few points: 1) Picked up 24 bottles of Mill St. Tankhouse Ale today, from the Brewery :smile: Haven't cracked one open yet, because I was out tonight - at C'est What? and had a pint of it there :smile: 2) Went to Pure Spirits about a month or so, just popped in a lunch time for a pint. Service was...

Here here Burgermeister! Well done! This all goes in line with what we were discussing a few months back, grass roots work, we all need to make a concerted effort to "Convert" the uneducated each year!

Josh - Thanks for the info - I'm hoping that I will be going back again next year, and I'm planning to bring my wife along and hopefully stay a few more days.
