Re: New Arrivals at LCBO & TBS
I could be mistaken, but those Fullers's Vintage Ales have really jumped in price. Not sure it's related to Sapporo or not.

Re: Portland, ME
Had a great trip in Portland/Boston. My preference for wild/sours mean I liked Portland more than Boston. Portland has some of the best beer-to-population ratio of anywhere. Allagash . The highlight for me. Did the quick 11:30 barrel room tour. Guide was great, and made for an informative and enjoya...

Re: Portland, ME
I'll be going to Portland and Boston soon and I hope to be able to post some of my experiences afterwards. Planning to attend the short Allagash wild barrel tour (logistical challenges), Novare Res, Oxbow, and RSVP. Unrelated: I tried posting something interesting I saw at an LCBO, but I could not g...

Re: LCBO.com
Kriek Boon is on the LCBO site. It can be found by searching "kriek", but not "Boon". Another nitpick I have is Lambiek Fabriek has two offerings on the site, but are listed in different formats. "Jart-Elle Oude Kriek" versus "Lambiek Fabriek - Brett-Elle". A ...

Re: Detroit
I'd like to go to Detroit one day as it's relatively close and seems to have a lot of great things. Tangentially, I was recently at Grimm in Brooklyn, and they definitely do not have a Montreal location. I'd like them to, though. Weird how some people cannot admit mistakes with zero costs for doing ...

Re: 2023 LCBO Summer Release
I'm going to get a brett-elle to try, but it's priced the same as the Armand and Gaston, which is almost certainly better. Lambiek's prices need a few years to cellar.

Re: 2023 LCBO Summer Release
Still no sign of Boon. Should I be worried? I saw the Boon Kriek in the Yonge/ Wellesley (?) store two weeks ago. LCBO app/website leaves much to be desired. Brett-Elle (unfruited geuze from Lambiek Fabriek) seems to be in stores, too. Thanks, it's good to hear that it's actually here, but very dis...

Re: LCBO.com
The one thing that stands out is finding products in the app. This is my biggest complaint about the LCBO app. I can't search the total inventory, just by physical proximity. I therefore use the mobile website rather than the app. Enter product name in search bar. Click on desired product. Click on...

Re: LCBO.com
LCBO app/website leaves much to be desired. This quote comes from a different thread. There is always the possibility glitches with the website. I find odd things now and again, like making a purchase of something that doesn't show inventory in the store I'm at, or perhaps doesn't show at all, but ...

Re: Booze in Toronto Parks - 2023 Pilot Program
If this happens again next year, hopefully starts at the twofour weekend and not August. I'm assuming it will continue to be a seasonal thing.

I think this sounds nice, but it seems like people that ruin things would have no difficulty ruining this.
