Has anyone actually tried to order recently? When they had stock in Quebec three weeks ago, I was able to get two cases without having to order any other regular beers.

First time order?

Yeah first time. Bieropholie Cantillon dried up months ago. Only lambic I've seen this year has been Lindemans.

I've gotten 3F Geuze from them as recent as late November, but that's it. I think I annoyed her so much she just let me have it. I don't read French well, but the response was something of "okay, you can order this, but you should really consider helping me out with this other stuff." Which I did....but it was Girardin and Our Beersel.

Its a first timer favour. Now the question you have to ask yourself, is how far are you willing to take it for more

Crack dealers always hook up the first few hits fo' free.

2 cases of cantillon?

Esprit is terrible! Peter reserved as case of Rodenbach Grand Cru a few weeks ago and then stiffed me.

Me: Can I please reserve a case of Rodenbach Grand Cru?

Peter: Yes, you can. Would you like to pick up or a store transfer?

Me: A store transfer would be great.

Peter: You will need to pay before the order can be placed.

Me: No problem. Where should I send the money?

*Crickets*

Me: Hello Peter, any update on this?

*Crickets*

I'll be drafting a letter to my MPP with my complaints about the current retail system in Ontario.

I dunno if this is still doable or whatnot but if anyone in the toronto area wants to split a case or something i'm in...

I'm assuming you are talking about Cantillon.

Getting a case is possible. Although it's going to cost you.

Right now through the Quebec source, they are requiring you to buy 2 to 3 other cases of obvious lesser beers, including all fees.

It's going to run you probably avg, $300 to get 6 bottles of Cantillon and a bunch of stuff that you probably didn't want.

My understanding is that you don't buy 2 or 3 lesser cases along with a case of Cantillon, you have to buy 2 or 3 cases of other stuff to even get put on the list for Cantillon. Then later you probably get the case of the stuff you want. Which is a pretty big inconvenience if you have to arrange pickup from 500km away.
