The Bar Towel

Just declare it & it's all cool? Yes and no. Unless, you are bringing back a stupid amount of beer. There is a maximum amount of beer that you can bring with you, and they will make you surrender any above that number. Also, you may have to pay duty. I always declare the beer I have (usually 10...

Oof topic, but I had a Unibroue St. Hubert while staying in Quebec recently... Much better than the food. :lol: Possibly, but it would be hard to say the GENERAL food quality is bad in Quebec. Quite the opposite I have found, mon ami. I think he was talking specifically about the food at St. Hubert.

Damn it! I was thinking Baltiika Porter. Didn't clue in until I saw the bottle--not even when I typed Okocim. Anyway, looks to be a decent baltic, and it is a new rating to boot.

Okocim Porter & Lion (Sinha) Stout. What the %$#@ is going on!?!

Still, it is difficult to find both these beers at the same stores outside of Toronto.

I can't believe I'm going to step into this . . . please take what I say with a grain of salt--I'm certainly no expert. And, I know we could split hairs on stylistic definitions all night. However . . . It seems to me most stouts are characterized by their roasty, coffee-ish flavour, while porters a...

As usual I thought the festival was crap. 2) Criminal lack of available water. Let alone festivals like Buffalo give it away free, to have it only available from several of the food vendors (and at $2 per 500ml bottle) is just obscene. The temperature all three days was over 30 degrees...heat, alco...

Big expectation for the party, eh? Anyway, we ought to think about making a weekend of it. Friday in London, Saturday in Buffalo.

Cheers,

Myself and a couple of friends were down in Buffalo on Saturday for the I.P.A festival at Cole's. The cost was $20 US and for that price we got unlimited beers as well as bratwurst. The ales I enjoyed were Two Hearted Ale from Bell's (Kalmazoo, MI), Big Daddy IPA from San Fransisco, and Three Floyd...

Better Bitters has been in operation since last fall. I tried their stuff in January. They are connected to the Brew-It-Yourself store next door.

If he were buying 24 six-packs--perhaps regularly as his post implies--wouldn't you deliver them personally. You're in Hamilton every second day it seems.

I am toying with the idea of bottling the Corporal Punishment and putting it into the LCBO system. I would appreciate any feedback you can give me before I make my decision. Cheers! Perry Tell me when and where. I could sure use some more SMIPA too. Last time I checked there were only 10 at the Upp...

Hi guys, I am toying around with a Dogfish Head style in-line hop infuser for the cask ales at Fort York. I haven't tried it out yet, but it looks good. My quandry is, (if it works) which of my 5 one-off festival beers would benefit from its use. I will have 2 beer engines, but only one will have t...

I'm headed to Buffalo and Rochester this Sunday to pick up some supplies, and it'll be my first true cross-border beer run. I know there's a great specialty store in Rochester, but I'll probably just hit Premier Gourmet. Any recommendations or things to look out for? I was thinking of buying about ...
