The Bar Towel

Does anybody know of a place in Ottawa that has Fuller's ESB on tap? And how do I find the best beer bars in Ottawa? I used to rely on ottawabeerevents but I'm guessing that is no longer updated.

Ratebeer has a places section (though it's fairly out of date since not many people are entering place ratings there any more) - https://www.ratebeer.com/places/city/ottawa/59/39/

Untappd lets you see where people are checking in beers near you as well as a venue search.

Untappd also has a "Find It" function for any given beer, although it's not perfect since it relies on bars/breweries who post their tap lists on the app.

I had tried both without success, but I thank you for contributing. My wife and I went to the Cheshire Cat on Monday night and I had an Old Speckled Hen, which I hadn't had in quite a while, and it is comparable.

I haven't seen it on tap in Toronto or surrounding area for a few years.

Come to think of it I haven't seen it at the LCBO recently either, or London Porter for that matter. LCBO only has London Pride listed right now. I would've actually expected the opposite seeing as they were acquired by Asahi a couple years back, typically those big purchases result in a heavier marketing push in existing and new territories.

I recall seeing it at Henry The VIII, but I don't remember how long ago. What is "a few years" now? What does that even mean anymore?

This year is going to be the best 2020 ever!

Have you been to the Manx recently? Is it still a going concern? How are they doing? I always liked that place. My speed I guess...

Except when they were too busy to get in the door.
