I think the Pickering one on Brock is decent. They have an Ontario micro section, seasonal releases are always well represented there, and they have a good selection of six packs like Anchor Steam, Southern Tier IPA, etc.

The Ajax one on highway 2 has the benefit of having its entire beer selection kept refrigerated. I don't go to this one often, but last time I was there I picked up a whack of Tree Hophead Double IPA and Hopsinjoor. So it can't be that bad. It seemed okay the two or three times I have been there.

Even if the Pickering/Ajax locations dont have what you want, it's not a long drive to Kingston/Morningside in Scarborough, which is also normally well stocked.

yeah you're right about the brock and kingston road one not bad--harwood and kingston in ajax--used to be better but lately not finding any new releases--I asked the guy in the beer walk in and he said not much demand...I said I beg to differ if you had all the new released I would buy a lot and refer more beer geeks your way...vicious circle I guess
