359) Town Crier Pub and Halfway Beer House in Toronto: Grimbergen Dubbel by Brouwerij Alken-Maes of Belgium: **; dark with a sweet, yesty nose; friuty and sweet with notes of bubblegum;
Locals may recall that the site of the Town Crier Pub and Halfway Beer House used to house The Fat Belgian. It is just a couple of doors down from where Smokeless Joe's used to be until very recently.
This is another installment of what just might become an empire - the same individual owns The Village Idiot Pub and, right next door to the the VIP, Sin and Redemption, which is still one of my favourite places. On this day I had intended to dine at Sin and Redemption after an afternoon spent at the Art Gallery of Ontario (Marc Chagall exhibit) and prior to a concert by Tafelmusik but I couldn't even find a seat along the bar. The place was packed.
The Town Crier and Halfway Beer House has a beer list and menu very similar to Sin and Redemption's - almost identical in fact, but not quite.
