According to NB's twitter feed today, it's returning to LCBO's now for the winter. Definitely happy about that given its price point.

Re: Amsterdam Brewery

If I remember correctly, that's $1 cheaper than last year and a higher bottle limit. Sounds good to me (unless I'm totally wrong...)

Re: Coming Soon to the LCBO

From what I understand for Black Friday this year last year's BCBS Vanilla Rye will be available for sale at Summerhill only. My understanding is that it will be about 20 cases at 1 bottle per person. Since this information is new to me and not 100% confirmed, I ask that you please don't email/call...

Good stuff, thanks!

Re: Nickel Brook Brewing

I'll be in Burlington tonight visiting my parents, so I might stop by the brewery to pick this up. Has anyone tried it yet?

Re: Blue Jays Home Opener?

Found this from around the time of the home opener:

I don't think things have changed much since then, so that should be a good starting point for you.

Re: New non-LCBO/TBS beer releases

Might as well put this here to continue the discussion from the "3 minutes to midnight" thread: http://bellwoodsbrewery.com/no-shut-eye/

With only ~1000 bottles being released, I sure hope this is still around by the time I get down there after work on Friday!
