Haha, when you said "working at the Beer store," I didn't think it was actually called "The Beer Store".

Favorite beer you carry?

You follow the TLDR Beer club?

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.

I have friends from Ontario, and they say near closing, there is a MAD RUSH where they sometimes have to wait in line up to 45 mins for their purchase.... do i call BS?

(thunder bay, ON, said to be plenty of drunken injuns, if this may make a difference)

Link for you.

Even the lounge haters should agree that's a good thread if you like good beer.

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?

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.
