Review is for customer service & True Believer IPA that I picked up. I didn't really experience…read morethe actual brewery as they were having an Oktoberfest event when I dropped by. Place was quite busy when I stopped by on a random Saturday. I was intending on stopping by for a flight/pint, but the brewery was having an Oktoberfest event, so I just picked up a 4-pack/bottle from their bottle shop. There was a long line since Oktoberfest goers had to get their pours from the same line that I was in. Even though they were busy, the owner (??) did stop by and gave me a quick lowdown on each bottle/can that I picked up. A lot of them seemed to be sours which I do not like, so I'm glad that he told me! Fridge was quite SMALL and dark, adjacent to the bar, so the lighting wasn't the best. Listing of the items could've been more descriptive, eg. IPA, Sour, etc. And you can't buy individual cans, so I had to pickup a 4-pack. I picked up a bottle of Wax Poetic and although fruity, it was a sour. :( I really like True Believer which is an IPA! Although it looks big from the exterior, the bar/bottle shop area is quite small in comparison. I'd definitely stop by again on a regular day.

My 600th review... So I'm stoked that it's for a business I like while also getting the exclusive…read moreYelp FTR rights to the post. Short Finger Brewing is a homebrewing supply shop located in Kitchener. It's a bit tucked away on a side street but was pretty easy to find and has a pretty cool setup. They offer everything you could need to turn your kitchen into a beer brewing facility, including the actual brewing equipment including kettles, carboys, funnels, hosing, and everything else one would have to buy, in addition to all the grains, hops and yeasts needed from an ingredient perspective. I was really impressed with their actual walk in freezer used to store hops. So many selections to choose from, and I was also pretty pleased that I managed to find Galaxy hops in stock (sold out at both Toronto homebrew supply shops at the time). The staff are super friendly and willing to give recommendations (I'll be trying a new yeast out this weekend because of them), and they also do things to help the community like events including bottle swaps. As someone who is excited to see the Ontario homebrewing world get bigger, it's good to see a solid shop like this in K-town. While I'm not in the city often anymore, I'll still be making a point to stop in when possible.

Oh. My. Goodness. I am RAVING about this place. I went on a mother daughter date with my mum…read more We got the French Onion Soup, and the Classic Fondue. It was the perfect amount of food and it was incredible. I would also recommend the Speak Mimosa I would recommend making a reservation after 7pm, just to be safe. The waitress was friendly, checked in, but didn't linger. I've been to the Melting Pot before - and it does NOT compare. It was priced as expected - it's not a fast food restaurant and it's worth every dollar. (Two soups, the classic fondue, two drinks and tips was just shy of $100). I've attached a poorly taken photo - we were too excited to eat it to get a picture in time.
