The Bar Towel

Not sure where to post this...

I bought a 24 of tankhouse and they were all bad. Not skunky, but tasted like really bad homebrew. There was also a lot of sediment in the bottom of the bottles, which I never saw before.

So my wife bought two cans of tankhouse from a different place, and they where also bad.

I have had it on tap since and it was fine.

So have they changed the recipe? Tankhouse used to be one of my staple beers

I haven't had any Tankhouse in months so I can't judge for myself, but it really wouldn't surprise me if Labatt-InBev has been ruining the recipe by cutting corners. It wouldn't be the first time they've bought someone out and then fucked a beer up by being cheap.

It's also possible that they were just really old stock. Was there a packaging code anywhere on the bottles or tallboys? Were they from the LCBO or TBS? I don't think The Beer Store tries very hard (if at all) to get rid of old stock, and they don't always cycle through craft beer brands very quickly.

I drink tank every now and again after work, as it's free. Last week I had one, that I shit you not, tasted like a wit beer. Was totally messed up. Tankhouse used to be one of my favs years and years ago

Tankhouse is the only beer I've ever returned to the LCBO for a refund. I like Tankhouse but if it's off it's really bad.

i had a MS Organic at my brother's house. nothing else to drink. yeast sediment in there as well.
it's Mill Street. they've always had a knack for cutting corners. you can taste it in Organic. it's a clear bottle of corner-cut piss
