Next time I head across the border I may pick up a 6 pack and try the same thing - if I can keep the family away from the cellar during the holidays. Thanks for the tip Pootz!

FWIW I noticed a few of the gift packs at one of the Markham LCBO's had 2 IPA's and no Ruby's. Guess people have been making some switches.
