Hey guys - new to the site!
In regards to border-HOPping (haha) for quality brews, for those in the London area, Ryan's Liquor in Port Huron MI is a great place to stop....
They stock Victory, Rogue, Goose Island, Sierra, & Speakeasy to name a few...
Well worth the 1 hr drive from London...
I have made the crossing from sarnia 5 times, and have never had to pay duty (each time bringing 1-2 cases back). Ryan's liquor is right at the border - so close, I crossed, bought, and crossed again in 14 mins.
You should have seen the custom's guys face "how long in the states"
"ahh...14 min"....

I don't think so, Port Urine wouldn't be a place i would turn to to look for people cultured in Beer to actually know that they have a place with good stuff.northyorksammy wrote:Dokta Owange wrote:First Post

haven't seen this reviewed in Ratebeer or Beer Advocate--is this an ad?

It is not an ad....it won't be reviewed in BA either - it is a small place, that has a small (but good) US micro section.
If you are in the Sarnia area, it is a great place to go.
I love good micros, and this is a close spot to Sarnia/London where I know I can get good stuff.
It is not worth a 3 hr trip from Toronto, but well worth it for those in the London area.

Thanks for the tip Dokta I usually cross at Sarnia when I go to the upper peninsula for Coho fishing.... it is probably the last stop on the way to buy good micros to take with me before entering the macro world of the "da yoopers" in the UP Mich areaDokta Owange wrote:It is not an ad....it won't be reviewed in BA either - it is a small place, that has a small (but good) US micro section.
