Heading to Toronto - need advice
« Reply #15 on: July 30, 2001, 09:12:00 PM »
Thanks gentlemen,
I just got back, 20lbs heavier than when I went and my liver is clamouring for a two week vacation at a health spar to recover.

I took quite well to Sleemans and Amsterdam as session beers.

Thrawn: Fin du Monde occasionally makes it a cross the pond to the UK and I spend a happy afternoon drinking it at a bbq some years ago. I did however spend one night on the Quebec Unibraue beers (hope I spelled that correctly) including Maudite. As I recall they were very good but the world went away at some point so a detailed comparison is not available  :).

To anyone interested in beer I highly recommend Smokeless Joe's in Toronto - they keep something in excess of 200 different beers. I spent a number of hazy evenings there.

By the way, why do Canadians waste a perfectly good Bloody Mary by putting clams in it?

Glad you had a good time Pei.  I've been hitting the beer pretty hard myself recently (celebrating my promotion to Chretien's oil boy)   :D

As for Clamato...I have no freaking idea.  Must have come from Cape Breton.

Bloody Ceasars rule!

Don't know Smokless Joe's - must be after my time, but that beer selection sounds like the Amsterdam.  Anyway, glad you had a good time. Sounds like T.O. is still a great town.
