Barnstormer YYZ Lager
Brock St Irish Red
Goose Island Four Star Pils
Mad and Noisy Lagered Ale
Moosehead Pale Ale
What a load of shit
I wish Brock St. was better. They are so close to me. I am looking forward to them opening their new bigger bar/restaurant location though. Not that I expect the beer to get better, but maybe there will be some good food!
Agreed wish 5 paddles put out better stuff too. falcon just opened in Ajax near me but haven't had a chance to try any of their beers. Any feedback from fellow bartowelers?
Everytime I learn something new I forget something old...like that time I learned to make wine and then forgot how to drive...

Dude, I live down the street from Trafalgar......nothing more sad than that. Take my kids to the hockey academy next door to every week.....depressing.

I'd put 5 Paddles head and shoulders above Brock St. I'm a fan. They've done some really good things in this past year imo. Juice Campbell was one of the juiciest pale ales I've had. So juicy I was skeptical that it was all hops... but they insist it was, so who am I to argue? And they may provide better variety than they do beer... but I still think the beer is work drinking. In Your Face is great imo too. And they also nail coffee beers. Their Rise & Grind Coffee Blonde was excellent if you ask me.

I love the rise and grind as well. I have enjoyed all the beers I have had from them, except for the Italian Back Yard ..... eech, tuned me off basil for a month.
