I know there was a discussion about this somewhere, but I couldn't find it, so...

Red Racer WITH bb date stamped on the bottom is back (in Aurora).

Hello! Perhaps my favourite regular Granite beer. Big sigh about the size.

Piston Head! It's as if they searched out the most boring Swedish beer they could find.

Canada | Better Bitters Brewing Co.

One of the few 'big package' Ontario releases I know is not a bunch of puffery... damn fine fuckin' beer. I am so proud of Nickel for brewing this. Actually will buy one to make sure it was amazing as I remembered (and Winey Bastard too - whoah.)
wished they would have bottled the Winey Bastard - Never had a Pinot Noir aged beer, with, well, so MUCH pinot noir...
pretty sure that's the Nickelbrook beer that tastes as close to Oerbier Special reserva as we'll ever get in ontario

Just found some GI Pere Jacques on the shelves here in Hamilton. Hadn't heard about this one coming, and nothing yet on the website.

Oddly enough it was listed a couple of weeks ago, but has since been taken down.
