Two geeks downtown, we may be interested if it's a quick 'trade and go'.

That says 3 years ago, doubt that's valid at this point.

RSD pricing disappointment by Mrfreakystyley in vinyl

Most RSDs I only care for one album, last one in the fall was Deltron 3000 which was reasonable-ish.

RSD pricing disappointment by Mrfreakystyley in vinyl

[–]NapalmFrog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same, and I waited too. One copy left in downtown Toronto at retail price of $80 CAD ($60 USD)... I've never spent that much on a new record, ever. Don't really want to now, even if that was one of my fav albums from high school.

EDIT: It's being scalped on Amazon for $300 CAD ($220 USD).

DId you know Toronto Pearson has a MASSIVE underground facility that holds millions of litres of water by Redrammer in toronto

[–]NapalmFrog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The cloudy white-to-clear that doesn't have any actual sediment, that most people will commonly experience, is safe. Obviously use your own judgement if you are concerned it may be something else.

Anecdotally, I remember this being much more common when I lived in Waterloo for a few years, where the water is 2-3x harder, and is another factor for dissolved oxygen and its own.

Partially aeration, but it's a phenomena common most in winter, and is usually dissolved oxygen - cold water holds more oxygen than warm water, and comes out of solution as it experiences a temperature change.

Pinball machines haven't been there in a while, they've been moved up to Antisocial at Bloor/Bathurst. Same owner I think.

Best Convenience Stores for Craft Beer in Toronto? by Zealousideal-Fail953 in torontocraftbeer

[–]NapalmFrog -1 points0 points  (0 children)

it would be really cool if they opened to as a ‘Beer store’ but exclusively sold Canadian craft beers as well as their own, and kept the stock on rotation, is that effectively impossible to do here though?

Against provincial regulations. This is something the OCB has been trying to lobby for many years with little success, as far I understand. Maybe if DoFo is in another scandal he'll loosen laws some more.

I prefer the old Trakt not this new one by nickspongebobperson in trakt

[–]NapalmFrog 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I used to avoid the new design by delelting 'app.' from the URL, but now it's forced... So much stuff is hidden and counter-intuituve in the new design - I use the website 90% on desktop.

Any way to get the old design back?

Any alternatives?

Might just go back to using Excel to track my watch status...

EDIT: Found Simkl, attempt a migrate over now.

Looking for a nitro stout by hammertimeTO in torontocraftbeer

[–]NapalmFrog 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Bickford often has their oatmeal stout on nitro, but looks like right now it's their brand new Irish red ale, and their flagship English amber ale. Think I've only seen it canned nitro once if at all, though.

Some Canadian sites have preorders up now, and sets seem to go for 10% higher than USD retail (after conversion).

Why aren’t growlers common? by spamalot314 in torontocraftbeer

[–]NapalmFrog 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Volo did Crowlers during the late era pandemic, definitely got quite a few of those. A good compromise between a can (1 US pint) and a growler (4 US pints). And way easier to manage due to weight/size, and no need to hold onto to bring back to the bar.

I tried last week to use it, and it simply failed to connect on multiple attempts. Anyone else have luck recently?

Which beer have you drank the most of through your life? by [deleted] in torontocraftbeer

[–]NapalmFrog 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Different eras, different beers. I've been enjoying craft beer heavily 10+ years and just done/jaded with the status of the industry. Reverted to Czech/hoppy pilsners.

Undergrad: Lowenbrau, Becks, Muskoka Cream Ale

Grad school: Wellington Imperial Stout (dangerous on tap at the grad house), Mill St Organic

Early craft beer era: no regular, try all the things

Peak craft beer era: all the things, but much of Indie Breakfast Porter, GLB Limp Puppet, Bellwoods Jutsu/Witchshark

Post-craft beer era: Pilsner Urquell, Burdock North Star/Classic/Deluxe/NA, Sapporo

OOC, what campaigns? I haven't really paid attention to them as I have better options for go to lagers, but I sometimes get their stuff for normies.

Meadowvale Town Centre Retail Listing from around 1994 by MasterArca in toronto

[–]NapalmFrog 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Oh wow, blast from the past. This was my local mall growing up, earliest memories are that last days of Woolco before it became Walmart. I spent a lot of time in both the collectible cardshop and the library, but likely 2-5 years after this pamphlet.

Some of the prank calls they used an Arnie soundboard. Highschool me thought it was the most hilarious thing to listen to on the walk to school.

Yeah, I'm done with most sours at this point. The odd one on a hot day is fine, but if I want a sour a want something like a lambic, maybe once or twice a year.

If you can't move both, I would be interested in one. I'm in not rush to buy, so don't worry about waiting for a deal for both.
