Forgot to add that. I am in Toronto. Does that change things? Heh.

I can probably add the glass from the Zwanze day to the trade as well as I am planning on going next week.

FT: Cantillon t-shirt and glass.

I got these 2 years ago at the brewery in Brussels. The t-shirt has sat messily folded in my drawers since then and have only used the glass a couple of times so I was wondering if anyone would be interested in trading these for beer. It doesn't have to be anything rare or sought after, just not ava...

There is a lot of old stock in King and Spadina right now for some reason. I even saw some expired Renaissance Pale Ales from the feature release from a bit ago.

I'm not sure if it has been mentioned here but I saw Saison Dupont Bon Vieux at Queens Quay and Dundas/Dovercourt locations in Toronto. I think it was hinted by the agent some time ago it was coming to the LCBO, what I did not expect was that it made it here in a magnum-sized bottle. Also saw the Fu...

Pretty sure I still see Cuvee on shelves... have all year. Need to drink my '12 bottle. So I drank my '12 NB Cuvee tonight. Wow... totally different then I remember. Even from the '13. Much more funky and sour. Still some of the barrel, but mostly a sour. Weird. Same experience here. Had a 12 and 1...

Friend bought one there some 2-3 weeks ago. It had a similar date to the Cervesias from the Dupont feature release.

Somewhat surprised at it's 'style' rating on RB. Probably because you haven't had the top beers in that style, and lack an accurate point of reference. Meeeeeow! I drink what comes in, sweetheart. :D Odd though, since none of the beer in this style rate at 100 for style.. which means there must be ...

Not showing any stock yet (that I can see), but Parallel 49 Snap Crackle Hop Imperial Rice IPA and Black Hops are both on the shelf at QQ. Product numbers are different than in the original release, that's why: 386201 for the Rice IPA Saw these 2 on the shelf at King & Spa today. The IPA had a ...

Everyone dancing around about the LCBO bringing in some Jolly Pumpkin should keep this in perspective: You're still paying $10 for a 750ml bottle of witbier. No problem paying $10 for any 750 JP beer, regardless of style. I paid 9 bucks for it in Detroit a couple of years ago so the price isn't rea...
