I seem to remember someone mentioning to me recently that Mill St. might be working on a stout as a new brand?

Was excited to find a listing for 7 bottles of this at Queens Quay... and disappointed to learn it was part of the 2002 release... Any point in me trying to pick these up or are they clearly too old to be worth it?

I have not been in yet, but every time I pass by Hooks restauant on lakeshore I day dream about how i would renovate it into a pub. Its a nice little place right by the river. I think its a seafood restaurant right now. :sigh:

Does this place still exist? I went looking for it last weekend and couldn't find it... Is it 60 Queen St. East? Is there more than one Queen St? Is it gone or am I just navigationally challenged?

Tried the La Choulette Brune last night. Definitely a different taste to it. Proceeded to lose my notebook either there or at the film festival afterward... d'oh! :smile:

I am setting up a bit of a movie site bar crawl. Sort of a tour of Toronto including places where movies were shot. Lakeview Lunch (diner) and McVeighs (Church St.) were in a great movie called "The Boondock Saints". Upfront Bar and Grill (106 Front E) was apparently in "Good Will Hun...

Had a blast. The Academy was a gorgeous spot, am very glad I got to check it out for the first time. Played some snooker with Dan-D-Man. (I got the prize for the score most in the negatives! :smile: ) Dan and Joey_Capps shared a bit of their Quelque Chose with me, which I appreciated greatly. Didn't...
