Re: New Arrivals at LCBO & TBS
Had a Spencer Trappist Quad tonight that I must have picked up at LCBO in 2018, was BB 09/21. Looked it up on RateBeer and found out that Spencer brewery closed this year. Was sad to hear I was hoping it would come back to lickbo. https://www.pastemagazine.com/drink/craft-beer/spencer-brewery-closin...

Re: New Arrivals at LCBO & TBS
Picked up Amsterdam Hazii IIPA today
Good bang for the buck at $3.95 for a 9.5% IIPA, and canned March 15 so nice and fresh.
Very hoppy and as hazy as orange juice

Re: What’s in the back of your fridge?
The Boulevard still tasted great, could still taste the cherry, but it did have a lot of suspended yeast particles, especially at the bottom

Re: What’s in the back of your fridge?
For my birthday my lady made roasted duck so I thought this 2015 Boulevard Bourbon Barrel Quad aged in cherries would go nicely. Was in my cold storage not in my fridge though . I think it was from the LCBO winter release 4 or 5 years ago

What’s in the back of your fridge?
I saw a post today about Celebrator, which I had one of in the back of the fridge from 4 or 5 years ago. What else does everyone else have at the back of their fridge for years?

Re: New Arrivals at LCBO & TBS
Lol I have a bottle of Celebrator that’s been at the back of my fridge for years! I couldn’t find any date info but I would guess 4 or 5 years old. Saved it for a special occasion that has never came around. I will drink tomorrow and get more if it if I still like it, which I imagine I will. This in...
