Definitely a good sign we are seeing better quality lambics, make a regular appearance at the LCBO.

The Cuvee and Kriek are both solid offerings from De Ranke. Their saisons are also pretty tasty. If you can get them for a good price I say go for it.

I bought quite a few, but it seems like the stores near me didn't restock when they ran out. If the store in Liberty Village, or at Dundas and Dovercourt had some I would buy a lot more especially since the price point is amazing.

If anyone can grab me two bottles I would sell you my soul. I'm living at work and really won't have time to pick any up. I'll paypal you the money and give you a special beer treat!

I have an extra bottle of Motley Cru, and a bottle of the barrel aged Grandma's Boy with sour plums. If you didn't get a chance to try these drop me a line. I would prefer an in person trade in the GTA.

I don't think I'll buy anything other than their stouts to age at this point. So far I've had fantastic luck with the beer geeks, black, and black holes.
