Re: Evergreen 2024 Craft Beer Fest
When I was first getting into craft beer I absolutely loved the festivals. I didn't mind paying more to get access to a bunch of breweries and to try a bunch of stuff all in one fun evening. Over time they've become less and less appealing to me, but I think that's saying more about me and where I a...

Re: Breweries in Prince Edward County
I rented a nice cottage and mostly stuck around there. The ostrich farm was kinda neat, I guess. Some terrific parks in Belleville for the kids.

Re: Breweries in Prince Edward County
I was in PEC for a bit recently, and the beer scene there has become quite crowded. Beyond what I considered the "new" breweries in the area like Matron, Slake and All My Friends, none of which I ended up visiting, there were a few other spots I'd never heard of I did go to: Strange Brew: ...

Re: Any new beers at Rogers Centre this year?
Funny how the pricing there is so divorced from the real world pricing of those beers. Henderson golden Ale (assuming that's the Rush beer) is $3.40, Jelly King is $6.50. They clearly just price everything at what they think the highest amount they can get away with is. I'd totally get a Jelly King ...

Re: Great Lakes
I'd be happy to have it delivered to my place in Guelph and hold it for you.

Re: Breweries closing and/or restructuring and/or bought out
Old Galt was a neat place, but man every time I went there it felt really, really expensive. I'm not sure that business model is viable in Ontario. Which is a shame, because other than the prices on the beers that place was really cool.

Re: Down to my last bottle of Boon Gueuze
The oldest bottle in my cellar is 13 years old. I guess I should keep saving it, lol.

Re: Breweries closing and/or restructuring and/or bought out
I'm surprised you guys haven't heard of Cassel. They were one of the first in the wave of craft breweries in the Ottawa area after Beau's. I don't think they had huge distribution outside of that area, but they have been in the LCBO a few times, been in festivals, done some collabs with other brewer...

Re: What're you drinking right now?
I've been drinking a bunch of Fairweather High Grade IPA, which I'm very glad is in my local 'BO.

Re: Jasper, AB and Revelstoke, BC
Jasper Brewing has been there for quite a while now, sister brewery to Banff Brewing. Looking at their website, it seems they have locations in Edmonton and Calgary too. It's been aaaaaaaages since I was there (Banff, not Jasper), but I came away thinking of them as kinda like a 3Brasseurs sort of p...

It just changed hands, the place might be in for a bit of a makeover.

Re: Lot 41 - Delta Marriott Pearson Airport
The place closest to my work, The Shakespeare Arms, was one of those places pretty much forever. They just recently got a single rotating tap of craft, which seems like it's ending up just alternating Great Lakes IPAs. Such a nice change.

Re: Spring Release ???
We haven't seen To Ol in a while, have we? I hope this is a sign they're going to bring back their bigger beers.
