I love that place.<BR/><BR/>I hope you're wrong about this 'finding perfection early' thing, but I fear you are right.<BR/><BR/>I REALLY want to find more good beer. The thing that sucks about the awfulness of Quebec beer (besides the fact that it is awful) is that when I go to new bars they usually have a large number of beers -but they're all from Quebec. And so I still haven't been able to try a lot of the beers I'm most interested in.<BR/><BR/>I figured moving here would give me access to a bunch of different European and American beers, but it's about the same as it was in Calgary.<BR/><BR/>I tried a Trappist beer -which the beer blogs proclaim to be among the best beers on earth- half a year ago, and hated it as much as anything from Quebec. So maybe what I like in beer is not what other people like.<BR/><BR/>Hell is other people.

I think you've just found the greatest early on, and now nothing will compare. I remember the first time I tried a Kilkenny (the canned cream-headed stuff) at a bar with you, Joel, and Dave. I loved it. Now that I've been a die-hard Stella drinker for a few years, I tried Kilkenny again the other day and nearly spat it out.<BR/><BR/>The only thing I've come back to and still respect are the Brewsters microbrews. (Alas they are only in Alberta and Saskatchewan, so it doesn't help you.) You've been doomed by finding perfection early.<BR/><BR/>I'm going to have a Newcastle next time I drink - in your honor.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
