Good news, I guess. I was hoping for a strike. It might just shake up the public's everythings-just-fine-the-way-it-is attitude toward liquor sales in Ontario. Also, if revenues dry out (:D), the Ontario Government might be more inclined to reconsider the recently released report. About the only go...

Considering that The Beer Store is a monopoly, the beer wall works very well. It effectively prevents the consumer from trying any of the lesser known brands. I'm sure more people don't even look at the wall, but then there are those people who might want to try something new and different. They try...

Heads Up: Beer Discussion on CFRB Today (June 1, 5:30)
The will be discussing micro vs. macro beer on the John Moore show on CFRB today at 5:30. He admits he knows very little about micro beer. He used a story about a waitress at Allen's (?) listing off the micros they had on tap (without explanation), and then bringing him something he didn't like. Sai...

I agree that this sucks, especially since during last year's festival I had the good fortune to basically subsist on barbecue for the entire weekend! But I have a thought for everyone... I had my first barbecue of the season at beerbistro the other night and was hugely impressed at how well Brian, ...

What about this? Anyone been there? http://www.HofbrauhausLasVegas.com I'm faced with a trip to Las Vegas in October and its existence, along with the Grand Canyon, are the only reasons that I am willing to go. Michael When you are in Vegas, you must go out in to the desert. Also, a trip to Hoover ...

Re: What are the best sleeper Micros we've got here?
Church Key (Near Napanee) Stg Major's India Pale Ale. Enjoyable hoppy madness. Church Key is actually in Campleford, Ontario. Scotch Irish (which is based near Napanee) contracts brews Sgt. Major's there. Scotch Irish is, of course, run by our very own Perry Mason (PRMason). And, yes Sgt. Major's i...

Well, good to hear you are okay with coffee now - I guess it really does affect different people differently. Of course, alcohol does too. In the end I think we all have to know our limit, our tolerance, with all these substances. As far as Molson Kick goes, I don't think it will make a big splash,...

Back to the topic at hand, caffeinated beers. I'm surprised that no one is yet speaking out against combining alcohol with such a highly addictive substance. Until last May, I was addicted to caffeine (primarily from coffee). It took an overnight stay in the hospital and some serious pain killers to...
