Beef Jerky, BBQ and The Raptors November 29th, 2007 1 Comment »

It’s been a few days since we’ve seen a post here so I thought I would ramble for a bit about a few random topics.

The Raptor’s were hosting the Grizzlies last night at the ACC and the fine people at AddInk were kind enough to invite all the Cameron’s folks down to enjoy the game with them. Ad ink is the company behind the Cameron’s Brewing Boxes you see in the LCBO and have done great work for us, not to mention they have box seats at the ACC. Being as wonderful as they are they even talked the Arena into stocking Cameron’s for the night, I’ve got to say it was pretty cool to Drink a fine craft beer while watching a live Raptors game.

The entire Cameron’s staff (except Jim) and Jeff from Add Ink.

On an entirely different note I thought I would give a couple of plugs for some friends of ours in Ontario. First is Jason at bbqblog.ca who hosts a great website dedicated to the art of the grill. If it can be BBQ’d this is the guy that can BBQ it better. Check out his recipe section, it will change your life.

On the topic of food, Cameron’s has stumbled upon what we think is the best beef jerky on the planet. Don’t just take our word for it, head on over to Fired Up Foods and order a few packs. Might as well tag on an order of the tasty chip nuts on while you’re there.

One final note, Cameron’s now has a facebook business profile that keeps our fans up to date and gives you the chance to win some Cameron’s Swag simply for being a “fan”. Check out other Ontario craft beer facebook groups: Beau’s, OCB, Cameron’s and Proud supporters of Ontario craft beer.

Go Safley

OCB Discovery Pack (No.1) November 23rd, 2007 8 Comments »

Yes… you are about to be witness to a ’shameless’ Plug… but I’m so excited about the launch of our Discovery Pack (No.1) into 150 LCBO stores that I can’t help myself! After a couple of delays, the LCBO has confirmed that our Discovery Pack will be on shelf in 150 stores in the next 5 days! Yahooooo!

There’s been some talk about what’s included in the 6 beers featured in this our FIRST Discovery Pack (and we love to see the ‘banter’)… The reality is (though tough for us to imagine), there ARE some people out there who have yet to adventure into the wonderful world of Ontario Craft Brewers to try the high quality beers being brewed right here in Ontario! So (here’s the shameless plug part), the OCB developed this six pack to educate consumers about different styles of premium beer and help beer lovers discover the world of Craft Beer available in Ontario. It’s about discovery and having some fun!

So here’s the thing… for those of you who are already OCB experts (tried all 125+ brands have you?) we invite you to continue to enjoy our beer, and to share the ‘Discovery Pack’ with your friends over the holiday season. For those of you just ‘breaking’ into the wonderful world of Ontario Craft Beer… brace yourself.. grab an OCB Discovery Pack.. and experience what you’ve been missing!

Final Plug: visit the Ontario Craft Brewers web page, look at all the great (really easy) recipes that have been developed and enjoy some of the holiday ‘entertaining’ tips! We’d love to hear your feedback on what you think about the Discovery Pack too!

Cheers!
