Hey guys!

Comment on Beer sales flat compared to wine, spirits by Chris

The report is only about industry size. It doesn’t differentiate between small, mid or large wineries or distilleries, either. I agree with you that it would be interesting to see a more detailed report on the Canadian brewing industry.

The problem with this report and any other I have seen done in Canada is that they don’t differentiate breweries by size. I’d love to see the stats on growth/decline of Canadian breweries split into small, mid, and large sizes based on sales and/or production. It would also be nice to see a “craft” differentiation in these reports based on the Brewer’s Association definition.

Great bock, I just wish they would sell it outside of St Thomas, so that I could savour it longer than being just seasonal

I’m not sure I could share a 650 mL bottle of Ten Bitter Years, even though I should. One of my favourites, for sure.

Nice. Totally the right move marketing wise (special beers, special bottles, special look on the LCBO shelf (and a special price)). And those beers should be shared.

Thanks to Eric for spreading the word! Maybe one of the reaedrs in attendance will be lucky enough to win Fuller’s Limited Edition 2010 Bottle-Conditioned Vintage Ale or some Schlafly, which is only sold around St. Louis. Call 318.255.1450 for tickets. It isn’t too late to enter the homebrew competition!

I don’t think you have your facts right . I live in BC and we still have extra old stock and it’s now 2011. As a matter of fact I’m dnnikirg a can of EOS right now My only regret is that very few stores here sell it in bottles .

Caldera is one of Oregon’s best breweries. I wish they had some kind of tatinsg room. Or maybe they do. Dunno. Standing Stone was, a coupla years back, fine, but not stellar. Improved?
