Just a few steps from the upcoming 3 Brewers location, we've got another out-of-province brewery opening an outpost in Liberty Village...

Big Rock don't scream Liberty Village, does it?

Not at all. Best of luck to them, but I think they picked the wrong area. They should have opened up right downtown and they would have done very well just with tourist traffic.

This would be huge news if it was 1995.

Interesting...would be nice to have a little beer / craft beer pocket of places in Liberty Village. Anyone know where Liberty Village Brewery plans to open up?

Given that information we very likely will give the Big Rock brewpub a try.

I would give them a try. Here's hoping their beer lineup will prove to be interesting here as in some edgy offerings.

If their recent one off brews that have been released are anything to go by, then you're all in for a treat

I think they will do well in this location. There are quite a few businesses in that area and they could generate significant revenue from the lunch crowd. They will also make a killing at every TFC home game. The place will be packed before and after matches. If the Brazen Head pub can do well in that location, then I'm quite certain this will do well also.

Cass/Greg, can this be merged with the other thread in Random? Please.
