I think this deserves its own thread, mods delete it if you disagree. Read this:
Beau's delivery service, designed to help out homeless kids in the Ottawa area, has been squashed after a complaint from another brewery. Anyone have any info on who the dicks are?

Introducing Light Mode! If you would like a Bar Towel social experience that isn't the traditional blue, you can now select Light Mode. Go to the User Control Panel and then Board Preferences, and select "Day Drinking" (Light Mode) from the My Board Style drop-down menu. You can always switch back to "Night Drinking" (Dark Mode). Enjoy!

Who Cried to Mommy about Beau's?
Considering the model would only benefit small breweries in the long run, and encourage them to take such initiatives themselves, is there really any debate over who it was? It most certainly wasn't an Ontario brewery in my mind, but a certain collection of breweries from Golden Colorado, Japan, and Belgium. You know, aside from the LCBO itself, the ones with the most to lose (however miniscule) from such a scenario being allowed.
it's beer o'clock.
Probably best to keep this discussion to a single thread - there's one over in the LCBO & Beer Store folder that has more posts: http://www.bartowel.com/board/viewtopic.php?t=7414
