Oh well, I've done all I can in reporting his 'brewery' as spam as much as I could today. It's down to the rest of BT now!
Well done sir.

According to his twitter profile Mr. Fakey "turns ideas into things". So far that doesn't seem to be working.

a facebook page is a thing I guess....

"Jason Parkdale They're just Passive Aggressive #FanBoys in the end... and this is their way of lashing out, rather than using basic common sense. (This would never happen in the same room)
But they crossed the line, and now it's all business."

I really want to be in the same room as him at some point and disabuse him of this notion. (By which I mean "tell him all about himself" not render him unconscious.)

"Andrew Beveridge Jason, these guys are just jealous of your success. They are probably still writing their pipe dreams on bar napkins and snorting coke off the back of toilet tanks telling everyone how great they are. Your brand/product is amazing and even though there have some minor delays in some areas which by the way is normal with any new product launch when you take it to the big leagues. You are moving on up to bigger and better things! Let the whiners winge and the winners succeed!! Keep up the great work!!"

This guy is the best, and I don't even know where to start with this...

In doing some research, I came across this list:
http://www.fin.gov.on.ca/en/lists/bwt/beer.html
Fascinating read! And of course, Parkdale is not there. Left Field, yes, Parkdale, no.

So, anybody hear of Bamboo Beer?

I have heard of it. I think the guy who owns the copyright is working on it. The fact that he has registered to pay taxes is actually sort of encouraging. There's a website for that one.

There you go. Content. Seems like a really interesting product.

Also, apparently launching at Yonge and Dundas square in July.

Incidentally, and I'd love somebody here to point me to the golden ticket, I can't find a list of manufacturer's license holders. Which I assumed would be public information and readily available, given how prohibitionist our province is. I'm surprised brewers don't have to wear a large scarlet "B" on their shirts.....

The closest I've come is being pointed to an FOI request, which will come in time for what I want to write about to be stinky potatoes.

Hmm, that's odd.

When you're in FB, do a search for JasonParkdale. You won't get a FB page result that works. That is, you will see www.facebook.com/JasonParkdale, but if you click the link you will get a Page Not Found result.

I believe that he may be confusing a comment on a blog post I wrote about parkdale a couple of years ago that was submitted by an actual woman with someone pretending to be a woman. Women can comment on things. It's not the 1920's.

Also, is it time for the Penguin on top of the television to explode?

Works for me too. He says when he woke up this morning all his accounts and "pages" were taken down because of "false reports" or something like that. He's an expert at false.
