Re: Blood Brothers Brewing

These guys announced home delivery recently. Neato. I've used the service once already - I never seem to have time to make it to their neck of the woods, but wanted to try a few things they had available a couple of weeks ago. Shipment arrived promptly - they appear to ship daily or at least regula...

Re: Coming Soon to the LCBO

Not as of my posting, but was officially announced this morning by Goose Island Brewhouse in Toronto via Instagram ... however, upon checking again, they have removed the post. Rumour elsewhere is that the release is limited to approx 200 bottles. Tickets to the pub's BCBS event on November 24 still...

Re: New Arrivals at LCBO & TBS

Also, Innis & Gunn Vanishing Point imperial stout is listed, but no stock yet. http://www.lcbo.com/lcbo/product/innis-gunn-vanishing-point/519330#.WgMRQ2eWwuQ Kind of disappointing that this one is aged in bourbon barrels. There's no shortage of bourbon barrel-aged imperial stouts available in ...

Re: Coming Soon to the LCBO

LCBO got a ton of KBS - so you never know. Also, I assume Founders made a bunch of CBS if they're sending it to all 48 states they distribute to. (and canada) Well the official release at Founders is a ticketed event with a 2 bottle limit......so I am gonna go out on a limb and say very limited dis...

Re: LCBO Online Exclusives

FWIW, I have a business trip in March to Frankfurt and was thinking of doing a side trip to St. Sixtus to pick up beer, anyone want to split Westy's? Don't know if I'll be shipping it back, as I can only carry a case by myself, if I get two one will definitely get shipped. Just to clarify for you: ...

Re: Witchstock

I assume likely the Passionfruit Milkshark that they did in limited release at the Wise Bar event last week, perhaps together with a collab with each participating brewery (or at least those coming from afar), but aside from that, anyone's guess at this point. I can hardly sleep as it is - not sure ...
