Given the price of the Golden Blend, it's a relatively good deal for a good gueuze....given the infrequency of gueuzes being available here it doesn't leave us with much choice, unfortunately!

Who is brining in Abt. 12? Last I spoke to Peter they were dropping him. You spoke to Peter? ;) Dropped off the map for me! Lol ya six coworkers and I buy 12-15 various cases off him every six months or so. Clearly only a couple cases at a time is not worth the bother! Now just do the Buffalo thing...

Just polished off an Armand & Tony with my wife....very nice! Haven't had the 'regular' 3F gueuze in a while but will be nice to compare (also with the Golden Blend).

Hamilton is poised as the next "it" spot in Ontario (I jest you not) and still there is no purchasing recognition from an LCBO standpoint. . Hamilton is always the next "it" spot until people move there and realize it's full of people like them looking for "it". Consta...

These are clearly going to trickle out over the next day or 2....I'm sure Summerhill will end up with a few cases eventually.

No need to panic (although I was earlier haha). Wife managed to grab a couple after feeling sorry for my sweaty lunch hour motorbike ride/$40 ticket/no 3F experience... :)

Don't bother with Manulife - not unpacked yet....not "visible" on one of the 5 skids. Doesn't the store have to manually scan the case into the system before it appears online? Would have thought the same....guy wasn't the most customer service oriented. Probably should have been a securi...

Looks like the linked thread is regarding the Golden Blend, which is not what the LCBO is getting in.

Given how long the (limited) Chimay Speciale Cent Cinquante was around (and the price), I wouldn't be too worried. The average/curious beer buyer isn't likely to drop $23 on a bottle of something they know nothing about.
