Just a quick post.
I had the pleasure of running into a salesperson from Waterloo Brewing, in the parking lot of the Napanee LCBO, a number of weeks back. I asked him, “Why hasn’t Waterloo done a better job of creating new beer varieties?” I told him that Waterloo Dark was one of the beers that help me make my way into craft beer. I believe it is a good beer for anyone new to craft beer and may be looing to branch out and challenge their pallet 
with more robust flavours. It is, however, not compelling enough to keep me coming back, as it lacks the complexity I now look for in beer. This could be said about the limited line up Waterloo boasts. Don’t get me wrong, I do not mean to sound…mean, nor diminish a good brewery. Waterloo is one of Ontario’s early craft brewers and I am a supporter of local brewers.
As we spoke in the LCBO parking lot, the salesperson (I can’t remember his name?), pulled out a can of the new seasonal beer Waterloo was about to have in the LCBO, a SPICED DUNKEL. I notice that Waterloo’s web site has a page for this new beer. I haven’t seen it in any stores yet, but when I do I will defiantly give it a try. Hopefully some exciting seasonal beers will bring me back to Waterloo brewing.
