Nice to see about Steam Whistle, but let's remember that the brewery has been right across the road from the ballpark for over 10 years. I'm sure it's crossed the minds of the Steam Whistle guys many times before and were likely rebuffed.

Having it in there just now is what I call "Ontario progress".

Agreed. Long overdue!

Now the question is how hard it will be to find...

I could imagine there's actually a law preventing them from putting kegs on a cart and rolling them across the street.

Steamwhistle has green trucks. (Not talking about the paint colour... :-p )

A very small baby step in the right direction. Though we're still getting liquored up at Bar Hop before our April 5th game. BOO Farrell!!

I'm debating between Bar Hop and Loose Moose for the obligatory pre-game bowls of loudmouth soup on Friday.

I imagine the Mr. Farrell will have a relatively unpleasant evening.
That's the way she goes. Sometimes she goes, sometimes it doesn't. She didn't go. That's the way she goes.

We are in the dark ages here. I love AT&T Park....acceptable selection inside, but Public House is cheaper and has an amazing selection...and you can bring as many as you can carry into the park itself.

Steam Whistle is $11 a can and can only he had from a kiosk exiled to the right field corner, at section 108.
