Re: LCBO Delivery Time
i think it depends on the store (i.e. how diligent they are in receiving the package on the system after they actually receive it) Its taken me anywhere from 3 to 5 business days after receiving the shipped notification email. current order placed May 13, ship notification May 15... I think you are...

LCBO Delivery Time
Does anyone know the process of LCBO in store pickup shipping? How long until my store receives the package if I was sent a confirmation email that the order has been shipped?
I assume it means the order has been picked and placed on a truck and would be delivered within 24 hours?

I like watching your reviews Hoppy I'm relatively new to the craft beer scene and still learning myself. If you're looking for a go to stout give St Ambroise Oatmeal Stout a try.

Re: LCBO Summer 2018 Craft Beer Release
Nice I've been hoping for Tank 7 to return! Same here, I live it. I'll be drinking this all summer if they bring in enough. Glad to see DuPont back again. I'm not happy about the Hennepin switching to 750ml instead of 330 bottles. Still have a few DuPont from the last release (fall?) but for price/...

Re: What're you drinking right now?
Tried Straffe Hendrik Quad the other night and absolutely loved it. It might be an unpopular opinion but I would place it above St Bernardus and Rochefort 10 (some bottles I've found to be better than others). Also Collective Arts Life In The Clouds. One of the best IPAs available in the LCBO right ...

Toronto Winter Brewfest - March 2+3
This will be the third annual Winter Brewfest this weekend and my personal first. I heard a few negative reviews of the 2016 festival. Would love to hear people's opinions. Did anyone go last year? Did they improve at all?

Re: Great Lakes
So far I've pretty disappointed by Lake Effect this year. Used to me my fave... but that goes to Karma Citra now. I've found all of their seasonal IPAs to be hit or miss. Very different flavour profiles in cans packaged on different dates. Used to love all of their offerings but sadly only enjoyed ...

Re: Coming Soon to the LCBO
Picked up a few Backwoods Bastard. Very impressed, I don't drink too many beers of the style but it made me a fan.

Re: Do individual LCBO stores have sales?
Yes LCBO seems to have store specific markdowns, I assume based on low sell through by manager's discretion. I have found a few good buys myself. Which store did you buy that bottle at I might go get one myself.

Re: New Arrivals at LCBO & TBS
It was originally released Sept 2016 but possibly new to LCBO as I have never seen it in stores.Ceecee wrote:Is Valar Dohaeris new? I honestly can't remember... Anyway, it's just listed as Ommegang Game of Thrones.

Re: Half Hours on Earth
Got a shipment for my birthday! Two each of
Yalla Yalla Citra
Yalla Yalla Mosaic
Control Bored
Shores of the Cosmic Ocean
Tried the mosaic Yalla Yalla and Control Bored so far, both amazing and delicious. Already a huge fan and although they're on the pricey side, the beer is worth it.

Re: OCB Week came and went and Bar Towel had nothing to say about it
Was there a specific OCB week beer in the LCBO this year? There was a barrel aged porter last year or the year before that was pretty damn good.
