Re: Co2 Amherst
I've seen Canadian tire advertising that they do C02 fills now (at the store, not the gas station), but haven't looked into price, etc. Other than that there's really no place in town. I've gone to Brunswick Fyr in Moncton to get my tank filled a couple of times, but they're not real keen on filling for homebrewers (you have to call ahead and sometimes leave your tank for a day or two).

Re: Co2 Amherst
Liquid Air has a depot here - I can't remember the name of the particular business at the moment - call the Moncton location and they'll tell you who. Liquid Air will pick up your tank when they do the Amherst run and drop it off the following week - last time I called it is Liquid Air leased tanks and private owned tanks.
Of course this means you are without co2 for a week, but if it is a leased tank and you call ahead, they'll load a tank on the truck and take back your empty.

Re: Co2 Amherst
yep - I confused the hell out of the person on the phone when I asked how much to fill a 20# cylinder.
