Another awesome beer from Anchor Steam, nice work by Bishops Cellar for bringing these beers in.

Picked up one of these today at Harvest Wines. They have growler fills there now and they will fill growlers from other vendors.

I didn't know they were doing growler fills there but it's not surprising. It's in my hood so I'll check it out.

Quick solo tasting before judging tomorrow. Get my taste buds acclimated. Feel free to stop by if you're in the neighborhood.

Is this real beer?

Malt is not listed in the ingredients, I'm a big fan of ginger beer so I actually enjoy this but it doesn't seem to be real beer

AVA at Paddys Wolfville. I think this is really quite good now. I enjoyed it. I like upstairs, you can see the brewery behind the beer.

I'm now enjoying a Boxing Rock Bo Pils. Great flavour on this one. It seemed a bit undercarbonated at first, but now I'm not so sure

Side-by-side of my "Steady, the Bitter!" ESB with Propeller ESB. Mine is more hop-forward, Propeller used choc malt I think. Mine is better :)

They just started. I think Friday may have been the first day. Temporary set-up at the moment, but will be building something more permanent. Same deal at Cristall in Sunnyside Mall. Plus I've heard Bishop's Cellar will be following suit.

As I'm currently out of my home brew and wait for my new kettle, I need a few beer to watch my habs destroy the leafs yet again. I have a stellar line up of hoptical illusion from flying monkey, north's winter saison, garrison's imperial chocolate stout and from boxing rock wild axe and unobtanium. Looking forward to this
