    Me too. Flying Monkey Smashbomb Atomic is probably my fave craft brew that is readily available at the LCBO.

    Flying Monkey has Antigravity Light Ale. I personally don't love it as much as Hoptical or Smashbomb, but as an easy drinking beer on a summer day it's better than most. It has about 120 cal / bottle vs. 180 for the Smashbomb.

    Moosehead's Cracked Canoe is alright as well (and about 100 cal / bottle).


    I agree, it's a balance - small amounts of good beer some days and slightly more of 'refreshing' beer on another day.

    That's absolutely my fave beer! It used to have an even higher percentage of alcohol when it was just available on tap at a few places but they had to change things up for the LCBO rules.

    I'll give the Antigravity a try. It's dangerous, but there's an LCBO below my office. :D

    Aiiiii... I'm a craft beer snob and this thread breaks my little itty bitty heart!

    So many good craft beers in Canada. Just save up your cals and drink less often.

    Indulging less often and with truly amazing one-offs really helps me enjoy the experience. I very rarely drink beer at home and usually save it for when I'm out enjoying a pint with friends. Wellington has an ESB out now that is great, and there are some fabulous hoppy brews available on tap in Hamilton where I live. In Toronto, the options are ENDLESS!

    What's a few hundred calories a week between friends when it means enjoying MUCH better beer?

    I love it...we have the same profile picture!!!!

    My go-to light beer is Miller Chill; however, nothing beats a nice blonde or honey ale.
