Last night at Volo (all draft)
GLB Saison du Pump - Lovely blend of flavours.. I'm going to have to pick up some bottles
Liberty Village Gosebuster - Great name but this was a bust for me. No salt, no tart, no nothing. Was looking forward to this after really enjoying LTM's gose this summer.
DDC Disco Soleil
GLB Limp Puppet
House Ales Park Bench (ISA) - I liked it a bit better than Limp Puppet
Forked River Holy Hand Grenade (Quad) - Standout of the night, very complex, lots of wood character but no mention of it being barrel aged.
Later on at Crest ...
Granville Island Hefe - not bad

I found the short list of picks at Blumen Garten in Picton okay, with Innis and Gunn oak aged on tap. Really good dining spot, very fair prices.cratez wrote:Over the week at Isaiah Tubbs Resort for a work conference:

Was at an event at Nickelbrook tonight.
Sampled:
Cause and Effect
Pissed Off Pete's Pumpkin Porter
Green Apple Pilsner
Naughty Neigbour
Equilibrium ESB
Uber Berliner Style Weiss
Enjoyed all. Green Apple was the surprise. Tried it many years ago and felt it too strong in the apple. Found it was more subdued tonight. Mind you, it was a sample, not a whole can.
Also enjoyed the ESB more than the cans I bought last spring.
Later on, had Stonehammer Pilsner at Pepperwoods. This is good beer!

The conference I mentioned is held at Isaiah every couple of years, and their food is terrible, so I'll keep this place in mind!Belgian wrote: I found the short list of picks at Blumen Garten in Picton okay, with Innis and Gunn oak aged on tap. Really good dining spot, very fair prices.
