bagochips Posted May 30, 2008 Report Share Posted May 30, 2008 As cold as you can get it, is my preference. Right now I'm enjoying one of these lovely treats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradm Posted May 30, 2008 Report Share Posted May 30, 2008 I think I've got two Sgt. Major IPA from Scotch Irish Brewing in the fridge at home, and I know the bottles are sad because they've been separated from the rest of the already-consumed six-pack; I can hear their faint, sorrowful whimpering in the deep quiet of the night.Aloha,Brad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ollie Posted June 2, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 2, 2008 Really? Thanks Ollie. I've been looking for those! I must have been on crack when I saw those Anchor Steam 6-packs because when I went back Saturday I couldn't find them anywhere. Unless you bought them all?

bagochips Posted June 2, 2008 Report Share Posted June 2, 2008 No I didn't make it down there yet. I've only seen the Liberty available in Ottawa. I have fond memories of drinking Steam ale at Specs on Mission St in SF, though, and would love to try it again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ollie Posted June 2, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 2, 2008 I've definitely seen the Steam in town before. I'll actually buy some though before I post my next "sighting". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ollie Posted June 25, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 25, 2008 Had some beer from the Dieu du ciel brewery in Montreal on the weekend. Really some of the best new beer I've had in years. This one was my favourite, tasting very much like an American IPA, a flavour I find lacking in Canadian microbeers: This had the spicy taste of a Belgian beer but was much better balanced than others I've had in the style: Both are 6.5% abv but they could also double as session beers. Highly recommended. It's also available in Gatineau: Le Marché Jovi 50 rue Bégin Gatineau Phone.: (819) 777-9921 La trappe à fromage 200 rue Bellehumeur Gatineau Phone.: (819) 243-6411 La trappe à fromage 114 boul St-Raymond Gatineau Phone.: (819) 243-6411 Où-Quoi Promenade du portage Hull Phone.: (819) 777-6555 Bistro l'autre oeil 55 rue Principale Gatineau (secteur Aylmer) Phone.: (819) 682-1221 Dépanneur Rapido 43 rue Front Gatineau (secteur Aylmer) Phone.: (819) 684-7345 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thorgnor Posted July 12, 2008 Report Share Posted July 12, 2008 (edited) My folks (ie my Dad) got me a bottle of this for Xmas- it was delicious. Strong rich earthy flavours, reminiscent of a unibroue- possibly Maudite. You wouldn't wanna drink 20 of them in one sitting though :crazy: I've got one of these but I've had it for two ears... think it's still good? Why has no one mentioned Red Cap stubbies?

Jaimoe Posted July 21, 2008 Report Share Posted July 21, 2008 Anyone other than me drink tasty Boris from France or Kaiser from Austria? Both are readily available at the LCBO in handy 500 ml tall-boy form. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave-O Posted July 25, 2008 Report Share Posted July 25, 2008 I brought some of these home from NS (as well as some Propeller and McAuslan) last weekend. I'm usually a big Garrison fan, but these are nothing special. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
