good news, since I was worried LCBO stock would be from the original November run - I'm not a fan of >month old IPAs

Beau's ... Despite scoffing at this a couple times on the shelf, I got one as a gift and it's actually pretty good. :lol: It seems Beau's packaging is rather eye catching and their pricing does a good job enticing non-beer drinkers to gift below average beer to people who wouldn't spend their money...

For those who like to sip their Tequila (rather than getting drunk on shooters) I'd like to bring your attention to Pasote Reposado LCBO has marked this as a clearance item and reduced the price 25% good value for a high quality Tequila!

good value for a high quality Tequila!

Possibly a terrible bar beer, but much better as a home sipper enjoyed quietly over 2-6 hours (not exaggerating this time frame in the least.) This is the pace I would enjoy über-rich things like ice wines, Sauternes, sweet Pedro Ximinez sherry and the like. A slippers and housecoat brew, if you wi...

Get 2 bottles and it’s equal to less than $10 for a 660ml bottle of 12% imp stout, compared to $12 for 500ml of Kentucky bastard. Both equally rated on ratebeer. But this way it’s easier to drink half and still have the other half sealed. Edit: can’t wait to try the lickinghole heir apparent, almos...

This is bull#$t. Isn't anybody insured against such an up-front expense? Seems like a ludicrous risk, so where exactly did the money go, and who at the manufacturing co. saw this coming and said nothing? I don't know much about the brewery equipment business but I'd have a hard time putting up $800...

I would have reminded him of Drug Ford's buck-a-beer initiative

Another listed, but with no stock yet, that I don't think was on any seasonal release list: Heir Apparant Mexican Spiced Imperial Stout that price can't be right, can it? under 4 bucks for an 11.5% imperial stout? :o puts most of the local beer prices to shame.... BUT given the discrepancy between ...

Looking to fill in the Xmas list with a bourbon or two. Something in the $50++ range. Currently enjoy Blantons, Weller and Eagle Rare. Suggestions? Larceny ($50) is a "wheated" bourbon along the lines of Weller Pikesville (pricier at $90) is a rye-heavy bourbon along the lines of Blanton'...

But I was curious about this one: http://www.vintages.com/lcbo-ear/vintages/product/details.do?language=EN&itemNumber=618991 Or if you want to go really fancy, there's an Orphan Barrel in the LCBO right now, but it's really pricey. Michters and its "founder" Joseph Magliocco has a sha...

Flying monkeys chocolate manifesto, for example, used to always be a 750 bottle, but now is in cans. Nope! was at the BO yesterday and, unless the bottles were from last year (difficult to tell with no dates), they are in fact 473ml bottles . (went down to the basement to double check size of last ...

Is anyone else rather annoyed at some of the special releases being sold in 4-packs only? They sell every other beer as singles so I don't quite understand the justification for only selling them in 4-packs, it certainly doesn't make it easier for the consumer. I know I buy less beer from CA as a r...
