Southdown & Lakeshore/Royal Windsor - Mississauga
Whenever I am in the area, I drop in to this LCBO The Beer Person here is doing an amazing job, I find beers here that I never knew existed, and some that I thought were gone. Amazing selection. The only negative: many of these beers do not have canning dates - so important for hoppy beers. Certainl...

Re: Nickel Brook Brewing
I am still a big fan of NickelBrook IPAs.
As far as WCIPAs go, Headstock is still great.
Winter Wizard was excellent. Uncle Goose pretty good too.
They have a very nice taproom in Burlington ( Mainway, west of Walkers )

Re: What's Your Favourite Ontario West Coast IPA?
I am curious about the BB dates on Fat Tug, with respect to freshness.
When would this Jun 18 batch have been canned?

Peak to Peak is very good. Nice selection of hops.
I like Bellwoods PIG

Always come back to Headstock and the GLB West Coasters.

Re: Third Moon Brewing
They are excellent. Better than most, if not all, the other high end IPAs.
I have ordered 3 times now. Easy pickup in Milton on a Saturday.

Re: Fairweather Brewing
Agree wholeheartedly with these recent assessments. These guys are nailing it, with hoppy beers and sours. Nice space for drinking and sampling You can go for a hike on The Rail Trail, very close by. As a Mississauga beer lover, I can make the drive to Bellwoods Hafis location or come here for top e...

Re: Winnipeg?
Just returned from a week in Winnipeg. Most bars have a similar selection of craft on tap, including Half Pints, Little Brown Jug, Torque, etc. I stayed downtown; there are several good spots- The King's Head ( on King ) and the Yellow Dog Tavern, just behind the Burton Cummings Theatre. Even The El...
