What an awesome bewery!


This particular bewery was establish about 170 yrs ago and still brewing strong. Back in the 1800's Labatts brewed approx. 1,000 bottle of beer per year. Now with help of modern technology they produce 350,000,000 bottle of beers per yrs.

Man did they have style back in the day!

Streem liner

According to the tour guide, The driver uniform was just as stylish as the streemliner they drove. The uniform consisted of a suit, tie and hat. One cool mandate the drivers had was to stop and help anyone that was broken down on the side of the road.

Time has changed and these noble notions are far go... Hell try doing that today, they'll problably get jack!


What a classic!

What amazes me is the broad range of flavors and colors among beers. My SO's favorites are so dark you can't see through them (tastes and feels like you swallowed a whole loaf of bread!) - and I tend more toward the Stella Artois kinds.

I'm a Corona kind of guy myself but if it's ice cold i'll drink just about any type of Beer!
