yeah i wasn't aware it was a cask, i've seen it on tap at atleast 4 bars i can think of off the top of my head, and i'm sure there are many more, and I have never heard of it being a cask. I had it once at Joe's and i know for sure it wasnt a cask.

County Durham Hop Addict

Man i love this beer. All the bars i frequent have it on tap, and i can't resist everytime i see it. I was wondering, does anyone know if County Durham plans on ever releasing this in a bottle? I would love to have this beer more often!

Rochefort 6 8 and 10 at Beer Bistro

Was there last night, they have the Rochefort 6, 8 and 10. Can't remember when i last saw a place have all 3 all at once. Bartender also told me to get it while i can cause he says Rochefort plans to stop sending out so much beer, they find its getting too commercial. Not sure how true this is, and ...

went straight down to Ellesmere and Vic Park, and grabbed 10 of the 24 westmalles they had. Anyone in that area shouldnt have a problem grabbing whatever is left there. they also had about 20 or so Dead Guy's and some Black Sheep Monty Python's Holy Grail, haven't seen this one around before.

there is still no need to horde the stuff like its the last shipment on earth. Beers like westmalle, and Fuller's Vintage will sell out no matter what.

HAHA, nice to see you have those "people" singled out. It drives me nuts, and i'm sure i'm not the only one. I love the belgian beers and when i heard that they were bringing in the Westmalle, i was floored. I live out near Gerrard and Woodbine, no big LCBO's with a great selection around ...

thanks for the tip, but what is the point in "reserving" some if it's first come first serve basis? i doubt if i reserve 6 or 10, and someone gets there before me and they want the whole case, that they wont sell it to them. Oh well........i'll just have to check the LCBO website daily, an...

Someone went in this morning, and bought 1 of the two cases, an...
