Not much I can add that others haven't already mentioned, except to reiterate that the overall quality of the beers was outstanding. There's no denying that events like this give Ontario beer drinkers one less reason to head south.
The Milk Tits was absolutely mind-blowing - easily up there with the best DIPAs that I've had, and I was laughing at the fact that you could smell its bouquet from a couple feet away. Like pootz said, it'd be great to have this on store shelves even as an occasional release.
The Ezra, Saison Dupump, and Daddy Issues were probably my next favourite after that - all exceptionally good brews with big complex flavours.
Had a blast with Greg and Paul on the way down and during the event, and as usual it was fun to chat with the London/SW folks. Great Lakes brought a phenomenal lineup of beers and Milos, Adil, and Farmer made it as easy as possible for everyone to access them. So hats off to all involved. Looking forward to whatever Milos comes up with next as each new event is always better than the last. Cheers!

a next-level event! A big hand to everyone at Great Lakes & Milos' for all their work.
So many highlights. The Pumpkin Saison was great, Milk Tits a great idea and a great beer (anyone aware of another lacto-IPA out there somewhere?). Ezra was tasty, the Root Beer was fun, vanilla bean delicious. Not one of those 23 beers was a filler.
Great to see the new location firing on all cylinders.
