Nickel Brook Naughty Neighbour
Tweet from the brewery that this has been flying off the shelves. Just waiting for the label to be made before it gets to the LCBO.
But my questions is has anyone picked this up from the brewery? Only a few ratings on RB

Interested to know if any BT's have had it yet?
American Pale Ale at 4.9% and 40 IBU's. Lighter than Crazy Canuck, might be a good session beer for this coming summer.

i went by the brewery on Drury on Tuesday and the only "new" beers they apparently had were Headstock and the RIS. Maybe she wasn't aware of this one? She did mention in passing a "headstock light" perhaps they've renamed this one as NN?TheBeeraholic wrote:Picked a six pack up yesterday. Like the last comment NN has a great body and huge flavour profile. Nice to have a lower abv hop forward beer besides Canuck to session. Didn't take long to get through the first bottle during the hockey game last night.
anyone know?

You had to ask for it. They have it in the back. I spoke with one of the brewers as no one was in tr actual store at the time. It will be labeled next week. I also bought a mixed six with te Headstock Light included in that. Just a light lager. Nothing like te IPA don't waste your money.Droogy wrote:i went by the brewery on Drury on Tuesday and the only "new" beers they apparently had were Headstock and the RIS.

Was at Caplanksky's last night and they added a fifth tap - spearheadNRman wrote:Do it , you won't regret it.JeffPorter wrote:Still haven't tried it - I REALLY want to!
The kids here at the Kickoff are pouring it down by the $16 pitcher full! I'm not sure they know how good it actually is. The spearhead tap is very very quiet.
I wouldn't mind the beer so much if it wasn't everwhere! Anyway he said it was going to be a rotating "feature" tap so I told him about RPA and how that might go with smoked meat.
