RichMan Posted March 9, 2020 Share Posted March 9, 2020 Strong tasting Stout. For my taste buds, I've had better. I was a little disappointed and sadden by the fact. Meh. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried to drop in quickly around quittin' time on Friday, and couldn't even find a spot to park! I kinda miss the old days when they were much smaller; I'd go right in, talk to the brewers, no crowds or anything - but I'm happy for them that they're doing so well! Yeah it's the trouble with being a success, you are happy for them to succeed, but it's hard to have them become unreachable. If you have the time to travel, I highly suggest Tuque de Broue http://www.tuquedebroue.ca/fr/ Nicolas the owner is an amazing guy, really personable, with great beer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess we just have that kind of connection, man. @coopaloop1234's gonna be so jealous. Again. LOL! Yeah, this one was a beaut! I'll buy this one again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't have time - or money; instead, I have kids - LOL! I've tried a few of theirs (available at LCBO), but was underwhelmed, to be honest. I'd certainly travel to Brasserie du Bas Canada though! They are on point! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do you give it out of five? In other beer news, I received my 3rd order from Dominion City, as they just did another batch of my favourite from them, Sunsplit IPA. Good guys there; they have an option to add a donation to local food banks (which my wife and I have done). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just back away, Coop; you’re just gonna get hurt... LOL! In all seriousness, an Indiana pale ale is higher in alcohol, as it preserves better, and the style was originated in the 19th c. so that beer could be sent from England to troops in India (and survive the long sea voyage). In the modern era, the double IPA (or imperial IPA) kinda just means higher alcohol (about >7.9% ABV) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Similar here - had a quick look at mine, and I’m at about 95 different DIPAs (and hundreds of IPAs in general). Only a few dozen Russian/imperial stouts, which even when its -30 Celsius, I find make me feel too warm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
