At Milos' Craft Beer Emporium: Neustadt Springs Texas Tea Stout (cask) Wow! Haven't had this in many, many years. Can't honestly remember what it was like, although I do remember liking it.

Re: Port Huron MI

I had someone pick me up some goods from Wolverine Market and it was a very nice experience. They have all their stock listed on their website and Untapped. Lots of Odd Sides, Epic and other great stuff from Michigan an beyond. You can see what was recently added on Untappd to discern freshness. I ...

Re: Ontario Craft Beer, Imports and Pumpkin Beers at the LCBO (Fall 2019)

I believe it needs to be aged in a LCBO warehouse prior to its release... Goes without saying. I'm pissed about Jai Alai. I know I can just drive to Buffalo if I really want some. But I don't always have that luxury. Aaaaaanyways, just hoping we see a decently fresh iteration of 90 Minute sometime ...

Agreed. It's likely the best Imperial IPA available in stores right now.

Re: Coming Soon to the LCBO
