Brewery in the west end of Toronto. They are offering now 5 different beers in 500 ml bottles for between 3-3.5$, and are bottling a batch this week. I can't get there, just trying to see if anyone near is going up and would grab me some...

Website isn't loading for me right now. But I can probably swing by. When will they be for sale? Or are they already. You looking for one of each? I live near Taunton and Townline if you want to meet there.

They go on sale Thursday at the brewery, 500 ml bottles, I think around 3 $ each, this is what is going on sale:

Conductor's Craft Ale, Engine No.9 Pale Ale, Stationmaster Stout, Hey Porter! and Grand Trunk Bitter. (5 in total)

If you could pick me up two of each that would be fantastic! I would really appreciate it!

Your welcome. Enjoy. They've been pretty mediocre. But for three dollars and a twenty five cent deposit on the bottles. Not a bad deal.

How do you guys feel about these names? I appreciate their attempt to be railway-themed (which Railway City does only half the time).

I can't remember the more awkwardly reaching names of new Ontario beers.

I don't mind them. I think my favourite name would be Hey Porter. I tried the Porter, Conductor, and PA last night. I found all to be good, and the Conductor very good. 3$ per 500 ml bottle, I think these are great beers per price point...

Any beer named after a Johnny Cash song gets a thumbs up from me

I will quickly add these names are MUCH better than "Lord Stuffypants Pasty-Faced old fucker Ale" type names that used to plague far too many Ontario beer labels. ZZZZzzzzz...

Good that we skip the DWG historical lessons & replace with monkeys that fly & Toms that are partially or wholly mad.
