Re: Bellwoods Bounty Hunter

Exact same for me - managed to find some vanilla, but no coconut whatsoever (and this was probably around mid-2014 as well).

Definitely will give it a shot again the next time it's in the bottle shop since it still was delicious.

Really hoping this won't turn into a shit show... that may be wishful thinking though.

Re: New Arrivals at LCBO & TBS

That would make sense that it's the brewed on date, since the case I grabbed my 6-pack out of had a large "Best before 22/08/15" stamped on it.

There were cases of SNPA on the floor at Summerhill last night. The 6-packs are going for $14.95... a little more expensive than I thought it was going to be, but I still grabbed one anyway.

They had the Honkers Ale and IPA on tap for $11.50 each... given the other options that are similarly priced, it's definitely worth seeking these out. The line at the Goose Island cart in the 500-level was crazy long and the vendors were incredibly slow at serving everyone, but I don't expect this t...

La Chouffe has been listed on the LCBO site for months now. Why list it in the dead of winter when it's going to be a summer release?

Bolshevik Bastard at $9.95 for a 4-pack is a pretty good bargain IMO. Also, I've always thought La Fin du Monde, Trois Pistoles, and Maudite were always great value for their 4-pack prices.

At Todd English P.U.B at the Aria in Vegas:

Ballast Point Sculpin IPA
Firestone Walker Double Jack IPA

First time for both and they were insanely awesome.
