Durham's Hop Addict - Either my head cold is a lot worse than I let myself believe or this batch somehow missed being hopped.

The wifey says its the head cold. Damn. Now I have at least a couple of days of not being able to taste beer.

I just picked up 4 on the way to the in-laws yesterday. It was great. I just wish there was distribution of their seasonals in the Guelph area.

Had a Neustadt Mill Gap Mild yesterday. Tons of flavour - a little sweeter than I was expecting but still delicious.

Re: netherworld

Just came back from the LCBO with the last 6 Flying Monkeys Cascadian Dark...mmm tasty. Have a few Schneider Eisbock - not exactly a session ale if you want to live through the weekend but an awesome glass to sip when closing out a snowy winter's eve. Gord So you're the one who took it! Damn you! (...

That's been my experience as well. Whenever I've wanted stuff brought in, I've always been told that I need to purchase at least a case. I can understand that.

I'm glad to hear you're getting some good pointers. My wife and I would definitely make the trip in to Toronto for some Quebec beer and food. Keep us up to date on how things progress.

So besides Beau's and Muskoka, what else do you have on tap? Just curious.

Looks pretty kickass Peter - I really like the curling monkey tail progress bar (ya, the little things).

But where's the button to make Smashbomb dispense from my computer?

I was hoping to find it on the LCBO shelves today - not in North Waterloo and not in East Guelph. Boo-urns.

A brewery that isn't get much attention on here is Neustadt. Its not my favourite (I'm not sure I have one) but they definitely have some good beers. They're out of the way of bigger markets which I thinks hurts them. I think some of their better beers are their seasonals only available at their bre...

Can you throw a hint or two Peter? and if it is a one off available at the brewery gimme some notice. I'll plan a road trip from Niagara for that one. Argh! Ya, me too. I'd be willing to drive up from Guelph if I could snag some. I've done that before just in hopes of getting a sample of Smashbomb ...

Just had Flying Monkey's Netherworld on tap at the Wolly. That should tide me over until I can find it in bottles at the LCBO.

Really excited about getting the brewmaster's mix. Would have liked to have the jalapeno but I don't think I'm willing to gamble and buy 24 just to try it.
