Any bars worth my time there? I'll be around Blue Mountain with my SO next weekend...

Would love to try more Northwinds Brewing stuff too, how hard is that stuff to find?

I think Northwinds should have their brewpub up and running by now. Not sure of the address, though.

There's a new place on First St ( main E-W street ) called The Smoke http://thesmoke.ca/
They have SteamWhistle and Creemore on tap.

There's also a Beaver & Bulldog on First St.

That's the way she goes. Sometimes she goes, sometimes it doesn't. She didn't go. That's the way she goes.

Northwinds pub is still in construction. You can still find the really tasty treats in the area.

Places worth checking out:
The Huron Club. Great place, good vibe, Three Stage XPA is on tap. The food is amazing.

Piper's Sports Bar - Thornbury. Not exactly a craft beer destination but, a great local hub and it's really good pub fair. The shawarma is great.

Bruce Wine Bar - Love this place. Also in Thornbury. Pizza's are stellar. The daily specials are over the top awesome. Hidden gem. Live music on Friday nights.

The Mill - another cool location. One of the better beer lists and great food. Cool atmosphere.

The Casbah is a great little spot in Collingwood with a little PBR on tap and a wide selection of bottles. It's a late night party kind of bar.

Check out Tremont Cafe. A higher end kind of place. But, there is Lug and Steam Whistle and some Creemore products.

In the Village itself... it's kind of a wasteland for beer at the moment. Firehall Pizza Co. has a tasty pint of Lug and Mad Tom.
