Re: Witchstock 2018
Tickets appear to still be available, which isn't surprising given the price. I keep debating going, but the lack of info on their site is poor at best, unless I'm missing a whole FAQ somewhere. No mention about if DDs are allowed inside, I'd assume no though since I am sure that would open a can of...

Re: Coming Soon to the LCBO
Hill Farmstead Arthur, Anna, and Florence ready to roll for Monday LCBO online drop, limit 4 pp! Price point is less than stellar at $16.75 a bottle which is about $3 above cost, but I'll pay that convenience fee all day to have these gems delivered locally! Good luck all!

Re: Orlando
Any new developments down this way? Looks like I'm going to have to do a family Disney land trip. I think we're going to be staying in kissimmee(is this Orlando?). Hoping to score some good local stuff, Cigar city etc. I've been down there early December for the past 5 years. I usually have a fairl...

Re: LCBO Online Exclusives
Son of a bitch. Just got a order cancelled email from the stupid lcbo for my a&g order. I hate them so much. How do you have inventory, take the order and then realize you don't have enough. Oh well, saves me some money at least. Did you previously get a "shipped" confirmation or just...

Re: LCBO Online Exclusives
I see the Flying Monkeys Invictus is online order for $38/bottle. Seems a bit steep. Is it worth it? The unique thing is that you can order them in singles rather than by the box, as long as the minimum order is at least $50. So, 2 bottles will run me $76. Worth it? It's a high price for Ontario, ...

Re: Bellwoods Brewery
I get the price bitching about 2nd rate Ontario Brewers, but if you can't afford Bellwoods, don't act like it's Bellwood's fault. Couldn't agree more. The bitching about the pricing on these bottles was a given. Always seems to be the same people too. If people don't like the prices, they can take ...

Re: Buffalo NY - what to see and explore?
Just came back from a quick cross border hop run to grab some of Woodcock's new XPA at Brewed and Bottled in lewiston (maybe 10 minutes or less from the Q-L bridge). Two things: - this new store is great and will likely be my go to spot from now on. Chris knows his stuff and is genuinely enthusiasti...

Re: New Arrivals at LCBO & TBS
I have to laugh at the talk of gouging and complaining about price increases, I mean no one has batted an eye at Bellwoods' pricing of their IIPAs at 6.25 or 6.50 for a 500 ml bottle. How is that any worse than a $6 473ml can? I don't like the pricing on either but given how our dollar is in the sta...

Re: BCBS LCBO?
so funny to see the terrible allocations buffalo gets as well. premier says you can buy one bottle of your choice of the 2016 or (hopefully not infected) 2015 and no variants! meanwhile, many places in the states are getting rare and regal along with regular. I mean rumour has it the yield is down, ...

Re: The Exchange Brewery
I finally had a chance to go there about two weekends ago and have to agree that pretty much every beer of the 7 I tried was at least good to very good. the nice array of well done and interesting styles easily pushes them to top of the breweries in the niagara region (I know, not heavy competition,...

Re: The Brew Box - home-delivered craft beer
I found a flyer for The Brew Box ( https://www.thebrewbox.co/ ) on my porch this morning. Some interesting stuff but that's a lot of coin. Basically it's at least $5 per tall boy...taken from the Sawdust City $60 example. Their cheapest mixed brewery pack is $70 for "approximately 4 litres of ...
