Great to see some OCB'ers out for the Golden Tap Awards at beerbistro.  A fun night with tasty food, good people and a great beer selection.  Thoroughly enjoyed Denison’s Weissbier, Black Oak's Transvestite's Tipple, and Church-Key's West Coast Pale Ale.

Congrats to all the winners and thanks to beerbistro for hosting and for the 20+ mini sandwiches/burgers I tackled.

 Until next time.

…99 bottles of beer.

If one of those pics, ends up on the blog…

…98 bottles of beer in your fridge!

So, I'm no lyricist.  But since Steve from Beau's created an impromptu photo contest with one of his recent posts, Ontario Brewer readers have been sending us photos of OCB beers in their fridges in order to win the prize that Steve hasn't determined exists yet.

Here are the latest (click on the picture to see them full sized):
