Favorite beer? Favorite beer you carry? You follow the TLDR Beer club? [/ QUOTE ] I used to drink only Canadian, but I have dabbled in other beers of late. I have become a big fan of Creemore Springs, and somehow picked up a taste for Stella Artois. We carry both of the beers I mentioned. I wanna try Le Fins Du Monde, but we haven't had it in stock for weeks. I browsed the Beer club to see what's out there, but I'm not really a connoisseur. Basically if we don't carry it, I don't know it. |

Haha, when you said "working at the Beer store," I didn't think it was actually called "The Beer Store". [/ QUOTE ] We are known for our creativity in Canada. Our liquor store is called LCBO (Liquor control board of Ontario). |

Plus, the policy is that we ID anyone that looks under 25. [/ QUOTE ] I see signs like this all the time. I think a 17-year-old HS kid who looks like he's 26 has to be the BMOC. [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] Also, how many fake ID purchases do you come across in an average day? |

Re: Ask Golden_Rhino about the Beer store.

Not sure if this falls under "corporate decisions," but how do you guys decide what new beers to carry? Have you ever stopped carrying a particular brand? Do customers ever walk in and give reccomendations of new beers to carry, and if so, do you guys ever follow those recs? [/ QUOTE ] Since we are owned by the big 3 breweries (Molson, Labatt, and Sleeman), I would assume that we only carry brands that are in some kind of demand. Beers get added/pulled all the time, in addition to packaging configurations (e.g. eliminate 6 packs, but can still buy a 12). We don't really have a process for following recommendations. I assume there is an official procedure, but I have not heard anything about it, and since it's more work for me I don't want to bring it up. |

They also tend to come in at certain times (after 9, weekends), and buy certain things (single cans, 40s). |

GR, Is this the place you speak of? http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b3...f/image001.jpg [/ QUOTE ] Yes, but the stores look entirely different now. (Refer to the link I provided earlier and you will see the new look). I personally preferred the old school order the beer and it comes down the chute stores as opposed to the self serve stores. |
