The Bar Towel

New listings and label changes in the LCBO for existing products Premium Lager and Lot 9 Pilsner, and a new Boundless IPA, indicate a slight rebranding going on. The word "Creemore" is more pronounced, and they have dropped the word "Springs" from the main part of the label. A small version of the old label is on the side of the can - at least for the lager, as I picked one up today.

I understand if they want to refresh the brand and label, but I would have thought the word "Springs" to be favourable. Can't say I particularly like the new label, but, of course, that is entirely subjective. There is nothing on their website about this.

I bought the Pilsner the other day and it also has the small old logo on it and I also agree the new branding is terrible.

Thirded. The new branding is pretty ghastly. Anyone tried the IPA?

I fear they've killed the Kellerbier which was a real gem.

Do the still do the Altbier? Haven’t seen it for god knows how long(that being said I totally just breeze past creemore). I used to really love that beer.

On their website they don't list it, so I'd assume it's gone. Too bad, the Altbier, Kellebier and even urBock were probably the best local examples of those styles. Even the Traditional Lager is up there as far as local options go IMO. But I don't think I've bought any Creemore since before the branding changed.

Anyone had the Coconut Porter (Mad & Noisy)?

Looks like Urbock is making a return in a mixed pack.

It's back as a single now.

Nice. Let's see the Kellerbier please!

I scored some perfect pint glasses and one of them is Urbock.

Now I have to buy some creemore.
