The Bar Towel

It's a shame that this seems to be happening to a lot of my favourite places. Revel, Matron, Barncat all struggling is disheartening.

I bet people are drinking it, but not in quantities that merit space on variety store shelves.

I'm sure they can, but it's not terribly popular stuff.

Wow, some good stuff on there. Kicking myself for stopping following them a couple of weeks ago.

Oh, they had the Greener Futures thing too, which was a membership subscription for some beer if I remember right.

A different approach from a brewery in Alberta. Didn't someone else try something like this a while back in Ontario? It sounds familiar, but I can't quite recall.

I'd love to be able to import from out of Province breweries directly. Does anyone know what the rules are for that in other provinces? It feels like that's the sort of thing the powers that be would want everyone to allow or nobody.

I haven't had a Calabogie IPA in like 5 years, but I remember being very pleasantly surprised when I tried it way back when. I should search that one out again sometime.

Back in the day we were all the extreme beer chasers, always looking for the strange new things. As the industry progressed, the people who still post here have more or less become beer traditionalists. We're not the ones out there hankering for the latest trendy or experimental beer any more, we're...

I generally just get whatever great lakes is freshest in the LCBO.

GLB are truly unrivaled at their price point in Ontario. Canuck at 3.15 and their rotating IPAs at like 3.60 are like a buck cheaper than their competition. Pompous Ass is under 3 bucks! I will say though, Collective Lager has become a bit of a staple for me. It's consistent, well-priced and pretty ...

I tried to go, but my plans/place to crash fell through. Going to a Great Lakes Tap takeover in Guelph instead.

I don't know about bringing in another, but it's available in stores right now.

The price on BCBS is what it is, but I can't get behind calling that beer underwhelming. It's been great every time I've had it. Double Tempest is my favourite Ontario beer of the style. You can get it online from Amsterdam right now, shame they don't deliver to Guelph. Bellwoods BOYD was pretty goo...
