    Anyone here selling beer in Ontario?

    Do you have an AGCO office in town, we do but I think that's cause of Casino Rama.

    Must have grains/hops

    There's 4 wine making shops in town (that I know of) so wine is out, wouldn't be able to sell it. We only have LCBO and The Beer Store around here. We can't sell in stores like the states do, I wish. I thought about a barley crusher, or making one myself with large rollers and hopper. right...

    Must have grains/hops

    Well I would start with say an initial investment of $2000, then I'd invest more as monthly sales demand. So $2000 isn't that much, I was planning on buying a boat next year but it can wait. I even thought about getting permission from board members to sell kits based on their recipes. Maybe...

    Must have grains/hops

    There's only the one LHBS here so local competition isn't a big deal and he only has 5 types of grains. I can't find anything in Barrie, yellow.ca doesn't really tell you much. For local shipping, within 30 mins my wife would deliver personally. I'll just start with 10 and if it works out...

    A place to buy Kegs in Canada

    I'll be ordering from Kegconnection.com, they're in the states. just be sure to use UPS (or is it USPS) and you won't get raped on brokerage fees. Oh yeah go through their store, not the ebay ads, it's cheaper that way.

    Must have grains/hops

    Ok so just spoke with the wife about a storefront. Basically I have to find out what the top 5-10 grains and 5-10 hops are to sell and where to get decent rates. I also have to find out how much it'll cost me to setup the store front. I'm a stay at home dad so I've got all the time in the...

    Time to rant

    I'm going to talk to him tomorrow, the thing is they are also a BOP. Wine and beer. You figure they'd make sure their staff are trained. I'm actually thinking of opening a storefront, going to have to do lots of research though. And have it ok'd by SWMBO.

    Hops in general. When I dealt with him last time I'm sure he was either drunk or stoned, but didn't know anything about the biz. He's been there for quite a while though.

    Time to rant

    Ok so I called my LHBS to see if they had any Simcoe hops, I wanted to buy a pound. The conversation went like this ... Hello, I'm calling to see if you have any Simcoe hops in stock. What are Simcoe hops? Ummm, They're a flavor plant, usually sold as pellets. Well, we have nothing...

    To HERMS/RIMS or not to...

    How much can I benefit from going to a HERMS/RIMS setup? I want to start lagering at some point and I am wondering if it is necessary.

    unpopular categories for competitions

    When I finally enter a competition I'll want to enter a category with the most entrants, then If I win it's because I made The best beer. And I also love stouts.
