I wish a local brewer could shed some light on why bombers have become the go-to. Is it a shelf space thing? Profit margin? Ease of production? LCBO requirement? Or are new brewers just following the herd, since bombers seem to be one of the modern standards (the other being the much-superior 473mL...

I drink most of these pilsners fairly regularly, because I live in a rural area with very poor beer selection in general and imported lagers are one of the few decent options. All of these beers have ingredients lists on the can, and AFAIK none of them mention anything other than malts, hops, yeast,...

I think there would be a whole lot less backlash to this feature if the beers were not $10 a bottle... The selection in the LCBO has improved greatly in the past couple of years and to stand and look at the shelves and see the alternatives to the Beaus release at a much reduced price it's a difficu...

For the record, I am pretty cheap and have relatively low standards so a beer needs to be abjectly awful for me to drainpour it. I'd say it met my expectations for a w...

I know the general feeling of most of you about Trafalgar....I'm not as hard on them. TRAFALGAR NORTHERN HARVEST Oh, and yes, I did buy one. Sir, you are a gentleman and a scholar for taking one for the team. It's really not a bad beer by Trafalgar standards. Standard dark ale (toasted malts, caram...

Already gone through two bottles of this year's release. While I'm not sure if it's as good as last year's, it's still tasty as hell and it remains one of my favourite APAs. Too bad it's kind of overpriced. Hopefully they'll start releasing this in 6-packs by next year, or even just in regular old t...
