Craft beers at $1 a time? I wish I was over there! Is there any chance of moving Toronto a bit closer to England?
Papastonch: Quick let's trade lives. Ya, not sure how big the samples will be but a good deal none-the-less.
I enjoy your blog. It paints a nice picture in my head of what pubs should be like. Thanks for the link.
Cheers
