Provides custom wine & beer packages to the general public. Provides dual-channel sales representation for various producers with an emphasis on the artisanal.
Incentives like this are very possibly worth millions if multiple brewers &/or the big foreign-owned guys jump in. The loss of revenue to LCBO will be substantial and, most important, HIDDEN from Ontario taxpayers - just the way conservatives like it. #onpoli#BuckABeer
Guys - @CP24 just interviewed a man about the #buckabeer. He’s ‘all for it’ ......even though he doesn’t drink.
Why is anyone touting this as a good thing when we are losing so much in our province right now?! #ONpoli
Instead of a dollar a beer, how about dollar a day insulin supplies, dollar an hour day care, dollar an hour tuition, dollar a book, dollar a public transit ride. Try arguing against any of those while arguing for #BuckABeer@fordnation

We don’t tweet all that often, but we’ll add our two cents and say we can’t make good, decent, or even passable beer for a buck, let alone pay our rent and our guys. Even the province’s large, foreign-owned breweries don’t sell at the current floor of $1.25. #ONPoli#BuckABeer
We’ve had a lot of questions the last day or two about #BuckABeer, and as to why we don’t support it. In short, the Buck A Beer program is bad for small Ontario breweries. We explain why here: https://t.co/AyZBd68Lkq
Like ALL other breweries today (except 1) we won't be participating in the #buckabeer#scheme by @fordnation both out of philosophy (we focus on making gr8 beer from premium local ingredients) & out of necessity (we would lose money selling it below cost & would be bankrupt) #ocb
